🐞 Description of the bug

In the "API reference" section, when you click a link in the left navigation bar, clicking the back arrow doesn't keep your placce. This is frustrating if you have expanded a long list of API members and want to continue looking at members in this same area.

I have reformatted the AutoAPI documentation and breadcrumbs to address the issue. @PipKat , could you kindly confirm if the problem still persists? If everything is resolved, would it be alright to close the issue? Thank you!

Hi @PipKat, I have reproduced this issue. Right now, the behavior depends on the pages you have visited.

For example:

module-A -> object-A -> link-to-object-B

module-B -> object-B

If you click in the link-to-object-B, you land in module-B -> object-B. If you click the back arrow button of your browser, it brings you back to module-A -> object-A because this is where you were one page before.

This is the expected behavior of the browser. Is this the situation you are facing?
