The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/logical-replication-subscription.html
Description:

I think there is a mistake in this doc :
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/logical-replication-subscription.html

"Each subscription will receive changes via one replication slot (see
Section 26.2.6)."

The above statement actually links to the physical replication slots, which
is different. Should it not link to this instead? :

Agreed, that seems like the right change. Unless objected to I'll apply the
attached diff with the appropriate level of backpatching.
