Description

Just a thought, but I often navigate to a component and want to see an older version, then use the version switcher to go back to a previous release, but it takes me back to the home page. Seems like it could be useful, and I can't think of a downside to that. Even if you don't want to be on the current page, you'd still have to navigate to wherever you want to go if you landed back on the home page.

Research direction

Start by locating the version switcher entry point in the patternfly.org site and reproduce switching releases from a component page. The work is complete when switching versions preserves the current component URL where that page exists, rather than returning to the home page.
