Status in Mahara ePortfolio: New Bug description: Now we are using $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] to get a previous view page. But for example the following 2nd case, we can not go back to the Top Page. 1. Top Page > Links and Resources > Site view 001 > Back > Top Page 2. Top Page > Links and Resources > Site view 001 > Public view by user001 > Back > Site view 001 > Back > public view by user001 > Back > Site view 001 So how about changing view/view.php as below? File: view/view.php Line: 179 [ Before ] if ($USER->is_logged_in() && !empty($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) { $page = get_config('wwwroot') . 'view/view.php?id=' . $viewid . ($new ? '&new=1' : ''); if ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] != $page) { $smarty->assign('backurl', $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']); } } [ After ] if ($USER->is_logged_in() && !empty($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) { $page = get_config('wwwroot') .
