    Description

      Summary

      The browser's "back" button doesn't work as expected when navigating to a project from the Projects page.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Open jira.atlassian.com;
      2. Navigate to Projects » View All Projects.
      3. Open the 'atlassian-http' project and wait for the page to load.
      4. Click the back button on the browser.

      Expected Results

      The View All Projects page would be displayed again.

      Actual Results

      The page apparently simply refreshes.

      Notes

      • This happens because when the user selects the project, it is redirected to:
        https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/HTTP/issues
        

        Which automatically redirects the user to:

        https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/HTTP/issues/?filter=allopenissues
        

        So when the user clicks on the 'back' button, it is directed back to:

        https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/HTTP/issues
        

        which automatically redirects the user again to:

        https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/HTTP/issues/?filter=allopenissues
        

        And so on.

      Workaround

      • Quickly click the back button on the browser twice.
      • Click and hold the back button on the browser and select the "Browse Projects" page in the tab history.
