According to Qt, this is not a bug because even if the URL changes, the page actually remains the same. This means that I'll have to find out how to change how WebEnginePart handles history to account for situations like this. I fear it won't be easy: I already tried the most obvious approach (reacting to the change in the URL rather than to the loading of a new page) but it doesn't work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
