"Back button" (link to "previous page") anyone?

[pvallaeys]

Is there a way to make a link go back to the previous page in a button or any other element?

Thank you for your reply. I am relatively new to WP and PRO, so my question might sound stupid. The solution is using javascript, right? But, where do I put it?

Hi Patrick,

Yes, you are correct the solution is using the JavaScript and you need to add the code into the Theme Options > JS and respective function or class in the specific element as explained in the reference thread in my previous comment.

Thanks
