It is sometimes possible for "Click here" when returning from a virtual stack in the Hoard to lead to the site's main page instead of back to the Hoard. This seems to occur when the item stack ids change; perhaps the link is anchored to the item stack id, and thus if it no longer exists, the link isn't valid?
How to Reproduce:
1. Find an item with exactly 2 scattered stacks (e.g. a stack of 98 and another stack of 92) and use the brush icon to clean the stacks up. This consolidates the stacks.
2. "Click here" to attempt to return to the previous position in the Hoard. The link brings you to the front page instead.
Expected Behavior:
If it's not possible to return directly to the previous Hoard position after the item stack ids have changed, the user should at least be linked to the first page of the same Hoard tab instead of the main page of the site.

Thank you for the report @Sylvandyr
Does this happen to you every time you follow those reproduction steps or only some of the time?
So far I have not been able to reproduce the issue. I suspect that the bug [i]might[/i] require an additional element or may be browser-specific. But this is just a guess.
I can tell you that the "Click here" link is generated by the last page your browser was on. This typically does not include a stack ID.
When you hover over the "Click here" link, your browser should display a text preview of the URL. Can you check what that URL is and report back?
For me, I see:
[code]https://www1.flightrising.com/hoard/[CATEGORY]/[PAGE NUMBER]?sort=name_asc[/code]

@
Kaepora - I tried it on two very different devices when I reported it, but it's no longer happening. I reproduced it every time on that day (about 10 times total). Not sure if some additional code change has resolved the issue silently. I just kept getting led back to the front page with the Marva announcement, heh.
Device 1: Laptop, Windows 11, Google Chrome (latest versions)
Device 2: Apple iPhone, default Safari app (latest versions)
I just tried again and it looks like I can no longer reproduce the error, sorry. :(
Based on your description, it should have nothing to do with the stacks and could've been some weird race condition or something else.

If it starts happening again, please let us know - especially if you notice a change to the "Click Here" URL.
There have been no recent code changes to hoard logic, so it could be something intermittent.

Will do! I'll pay more attention to the URL the next time I see it. It does sound intermittent, which is the worst kind of bug to debug. :(
