[Resolved] Back to previous page

[muralidharan]

HiTom

can we create a button that remain common in all blog pages that take you the page where we begin

thanks

To go back to the previous page the user was on, you would have to use javascript to talk to their browser and get the previous page.

If you just want to link back to the home page, that’s much easier.

If you do a Google search for “link to previous page”, you should find lots of examples 🙂

Below code works for me.

<button onclick="goBack()">Go Back</button>

<script>
function goBack() {
  window.history.back();
}
</script>

Hi srimali,

Hi I want browser back arrow to work in my website, in some pages it does not work. Pls help

Can you link us to sample pages where it works and where it doesn’t work?

So we can inspect the page and investigate why it doesn’t work for some while it works on others.

If you wish to share the links in private, you can open a new topic for this so you can use its private information text field.

Let us know. 😀

Thank you very much for your support, problem was solved, I use elementor as page builder, when linking a page I choose ‘open in new window’ – then it worked.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

Nice one. Thanks for letting us know. Glad you got it sorted. 😀
