How to return to previous page without jumping back to the top of it

[llart3]

Hello,

In the past it used to work that after clicking on a painting, for example say MARIGOLD, here: https://www.lauraletchingerart.com, the user would be taken to a detail page about that painting, and then when clicking the browser back arrow, the user would be returned to the same place on that previous page. But what happens now is that the user is returned to the very top of that page, and has to scroll through the painting list to find where they left off looking at paintings. This happens for every painting on that home page, and is particularly frustrating when using mobile because that page is long. Is there a way, or code, that would solve this problem so that when a user clicks on a painting on the homepage they can use the browser back arrow to return to that same spot so they can pickup where they left off?

Many thanks,
Laura

Hi Laura,

Regretfully, that is not possible as the Back button of the browser loads the previous page URL that it holds into the memory stack, and can’t jump into any specific section you want.

Thanks
