Wikipedia uncollapsed section got forgotten by navigating through history

[kelson42]

Steps:

• Open a wikipedia article
• Uncollapse a section
• Click on a link in this section
• The new article is open properly
• Navigate one level back in the history

I get:

• My uncollapsed section is no collapsed and I'm not exactly back at the same place where I was

I expect:

• To come back at the exactly same place

@kelson42 this should be in 3.4? It sounds a bit challenging without the Zim JS API... I need to investigate what is happening but perhaps we would need to persist a list of expanded sections in our history db and restore them when we detect backwards navigation? There may be a more elegant solution

@macgills no, does not have to be.

I second this (insistent). If not possible or too challenging, i would prefer (an option for) all text always uncollapsed, this relatively new behaviour of kiwix is quite disruptive.

Kiwix 3.4.1 (f-droid), LineageOS 17.1

(using kiwix (Android) for years now and i really appreciate your work)
