Description

There is the following issue on this page: https://docs.pytorch.org/tutorials/advanced/torch_script_custom_ops.html

This page is no longer accessible, even if I select an older version of pytorch. (For example, coming from here: https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/2.8/cpp_index.html#extending-pytorch-and-torchscript-with-c-extensions). Regular docs are still accessible this way, e.g. https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/2.8/jit_language_reference.html vs https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/2.9/jit_language_reference.html

It would be good if they were backup up and still accessible in the 2.8.0 documentation.

Research direction

Start by comparing the TorchScript custom-ops page with the linked PyTorch 2.8 and 2.9 documentation URLs, then inspect the documentation versioning or archival configuration that controls these pages. Done means the page is accessible through the 2.8.0 documentation while regular versioned documentation remains available.
