Pressing Back in Some Views Takes to a Different Place

[rye]

At many views (assignments#show, classrooms#show, {[etc.]}#show), pressing the "back" button takes the user to a page other than that which they came from. For example, if I'm looking at /classrooms/30, and I press the Back button, it takes me to /classrooms as opposed to the site I originally navigated from.

As a suggestion, we may consider including some little flags in the URL's. For example, clicking on a link in the sidebar would add ?fromhomesidebar=true, or, to be more concise, ?s=true, to the URL that the user navigates to. Then, the system would change the links displayed on the page to actually redirect back, in this case, to the home page.

Another suggestion----one which does not require much work, at that----is to change all of the "Back" links to reflect where they actually go (i.e. "Back" on classrooms#show would be changed to "All Classrooms"). Additionally (and optionally), we could add a "Home" button to the btn-group at the bottom of all of the pages that would just redirect to the docket#index or root_url.

I am pretty sure the back buttons are auto-generated, which causes this problem. I would suggest multiple buttons over dealing with going back.

Yeah. I'll probably spend some time changing the words from (for example, on classrooms#show "Back" to "All Classrooms"), which makes more sense either way.

I want the buttons to be going where they're going. Better names will probably help.

Creating fix-button-names to fix this.
