Using desktop with windows 10 & chrome. When I respond to a thread & post a comment, then hit the back button. Instead of bringing me back to the thread I just commented on, it brings me back to the bottom of the page that the thread was on. It's been going on for a few days. Anybody else having this experience? I think I will try Firefox & see if it's doing it there too.

Yes... same here... I have to refresh the page to see my post....
Seems stuff doesn't update unless you reload SMF...
 
OK, after switching to Firefox, the back button problem does not happen.
But Firefox is much slower than chrome, so if there is a fix for Chrome it would be greatly appreciated.
I'm going to re-boot my computer & see if that helps.
Thanks Al
 
re-booting didn't help.
I will check to see if my Firefox has been updated.
Thanks guys!
Al
 
Yep I'm updated to the latest version, so I'll use it for a while & see how I like it.

I'm using Chromium on a Linux machine.I'm going to give it a try right now.
 
No issue with Chromium on my machine.Will see about FF right now.FF is fine also.
 
It is working fine this morning, a little slow, but at least the back button takes you back to where you were!
Thanks, whoever fixed this!

Al,
Chrome can get hung up in its shorts on occasion. Worse case you may need to resort to clearing the browser data found under the vertical three dots and selecting more tools.

I got logged off twice today using the back button.

Thanks Matt!
If it acts up again I will try what you suggest.
