 * Hello,
 * I really love infinite scroll plugin but I noticed one problem with it and wanted
   to find out if there is something that can be done.
 * Example:
    I have 2 pages of posts and I’m using infinite scroll, when I scroll
   down to where posts from page 2 should be “page/2/” appears at the end of the
   URL.
 * When I click on post from page 2 in order to read it and then press browsers 
   back button, only posts from page 2 are now visible, since page 2 is last page
   no new posts are loaded and when I scroll up no previous posts get loaded as 
   well (I guess Infinite scroll doesn’t load previous pages?).
 * If I press back button once again I’m at home page (without “page/2/” at the 
   end of URL), but instead of posts from 1st page I still see posts form page 2.
   So I’m basically stuck in page 2. To get things working normally again I must
   refresh webpage.
 * Only thing I can do at this point is to press home button and start all over.

 * Nice catch! I took note of the bug [here](http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2015),
   and we’ll work on getting this fixed. Thanks for the report!

 * Thank you for responding!
 * There is one thing I would like to add:
 * Once you press back the second time “page/2/” parameter actually disappears from
   the end of the URL, but you can only see posts from “page/2/”, previous posts
   aren’t visible and you’re basically stuck on page 2.
