Back button does't go back to previous page

    I’m using the “Scroll to location hash” option for all targets. After a link with a # is loaded and scrolled, pressing the back button doesn’t take the user back a page unless they press it three times. Here is the order of pages when the back button is clicked multiple times:

    Starting from example.com
    Clicking link and navigated to example.com/page#id
    Click back button first time: example.com/page# (id is missing)
    Click back button second time: example.com/page#id (id is back, but page is at the top)
    Click back button third time: example.com

    This creates a frustrating user experience when they have to click back three times to go back one page.

    I can’t share my site because it’s a client’s site in development. Is this a known issue or just me?

    Hello and thanks for the feedback!

    Known issue. I’m gonna fix this on the next version (1.6.1). I’ll release it asap (the latest within the coming week).

    If you’re in a hurry and you’d like to modify the code yourself I can tell you what to edit (minor change) but if you can wait about 3-4 days it’s always safer to just update the plugin.

    Thanks for the quick reply. Any luck with the 1.6.1 update? I’m not in dire need of the fix right now, but maybe you should post the code anyway just in case the next update gets delayed too long.

    Sorry for the delay (too much work). I’ll release 1.6.1 on Monday.

    Quick fix:

    In jquery.malihu.PageScroll2id-init.js (plugin dir > js), find the word:

    pushState

    and replace it with:

    replaceState

    there should be 4 instances of it.

    It works great for custom “id” or “class” that i am using. you can try
