Description

Fixes #12578.

HTML navbar items currently render as <div> elements on mobile, whereas the mobile navigation list expects <li> elements.

This change renders HTML navbar items as <li> elements on mobile while preserving the existing behavior for desktop navbar items and dropdown items.

Adds regression tests covering mobile, desktop, and dropdown rendering.

Testing

• Mobile HTML navbar item renders as <li>
• Desktop HTML navbar item renders as <div>
• Dropdown HTML navbar item renders as <li>

Ran:

pnpm vitest run packages/docusaurus-theme-classic/src/theme/NavbarItem/__tests__/HtmlNavbarItem.test.tsx

All 3 tests pass locally.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • HTML navbar items now render as list items in mobile navigation and when displayed inside dropdowns.
  • On desktop, items outside dropdowns continue to render as regular containers.
  • This keeps the rendered element consistent with the navigation context.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: mobile HTML navbar items now render as list items (li). The raw summary confirms HtmlNavbarItem now renders li when mobile or isDropdownItem is true, and the objectives say desktop div behavior is kept. The title uses the conventional fix(scope) prefix and is specific, short, and free of file lists or vague terms.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #12578 requires mobile HTML navbar items to use li elements in the burger-menu list. HtmlNavbarItem.tsx now selects li when mobile is true. The change preserves div for desktop items and li for dropdown items. The added tests cover all three cases.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 2 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
