Artists repeated after going back in browser

Artists repeated after going back in browser Bug

I have found this problem also happens on the muscol demo site, therefore I am fairly certain I have discovered a rather annoying bug.

Go here:- http://demo.joomlathat.com/index.php/music-collection/d

Click on one of the artists. When the artist page loads, click the Back button in your browser.

Repeat these steps until you see on the "D" artist page that the artists are duplicated (i.e. there are two instances of every artist). This happens more often than not when you click Back button from the artist page.

This happens at least on OSX Chrome 57, Firefox 52, Safari 10.

I can't see that. it doesn't seem to happen for me.

however, for how you're describing it, looks like it could be a "load on scroll" issue (it's not that the artists are really duplicated, it's that the may be loaded twice.

which WINDOW SIZE are you using?

1280 x 800 is my native resolution on this Mac.

If i resize down to 960x580 the problem still occurs.

However, if I resize down to iPhone 5 size, using the device tool in Chrome, it appears the problem no longer exists.

Agreed, the problem seems that artists are loaded twice.

Can you suggest a suitable solution ?

Thanks

hi

can you please send me a link to your site? I'm not able to replicate this issue on my end, so I would like to see it in your site directly.

wait, I think I may have found a way to fix it.
can you open file /components/com_muscol/views/artists/tmpl/default.php.

on line 81 you will see:

var isloading_artist;

can you change it to:

var isloading_artist = true;

Unfortunately that has not made any difference. At 1280 x 800 resolution I can reload the artist homepage on both my localhost site and on the muscol demo site and the problem persists.

that's weird, I'm pretty sure this should fix it. Could you send me a link anyway?

Thanks for sharing. Glad it's not just me, however, that isn't really a working solution for our end users and the above fix (isloading_artist=true) hasn't made any difference.
