Scroll back to previous results...

[AfonsoFG]

I have set up ias with ease at this address: http://jb.utad.pt/familia2/fabaceae (List of Flower species that belong to the family Fabacear)

The PHP with the htaccess also allow the URL also to be in this form: http://jb.utad.pt/familia2/fabacea/paginaX (pagina meaning page in portuguese).

What happens is that if a user goes directly to (let's say) page 10 .... he won't be allowed to scroll back ... and thus won't see a lot of results this page gives... this is a major issue as Google has indexed plenty of our result pages for this file ...

Can it be fixed?

Cheers.

And I guess this issue is related to the URL not updating correctly ...

http://jb.utad.pt/familia2/fabaceae/pagina10#/pagina15 ? 👎

Why is the # sign used? Why can't the script go along with the pagination already in place on the site?

I have to look into this, but this can take a while before I come up with a solution.

As a workaround you could try to disable IAS when a visitor doesn't land on the first page.

How about this solution?
If the paginator has previous link, we show button "show previous page" or something like this. After clicking this button we load previous page by ajax and set loaded content to top of the page.

I like your idea. Thanks for thinking along!

I complete rewrote the history support in 2.1.0, which now works with a "load previous page" link. For an example check: http://infiniteajaxscroll.com/examples/history.html
