Navigate to the last scroll position when coming back to the homepage

[Johan]

After viewing a projet, I would like to come back to the homepage previous scrolled position when I press my browser back button (history.back()). Since I have a lot of projects displayed on my home, it's quite annoying for the user to come back to the top of the page.
Is there a way I can get around this? I guess using Lightbox addon would do the job, but I would prefer having one page (with a proper url) per project.
If anyone had any idea it would be super nice !
Thanks a lot
Johan

Hey Johan!

Oh, so normally this works, but only on pages where theres no project thumbnail overview grid.

I need to improve this!

@arminunruh Thanks a lot for your answer. Is there a trick I should use until you implement this functionality?

[Johan]

I tried something like :

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
   $('a.thumb').on('click', function(){
      sessionStorage["scrollPosition"] = $(window).scrollTop();
   });
   $(window).scrollTop(sessionStorage["scrollPosition"]);
   sessionStorage.clear();
});

but it doesn't work.

Hi @Johan
have a look how to deal with Javascript here:

I hope that will work out for you.

All the best!
