location 'replace' not working

[somentelucas]

I'm doing a transition to the same state (different params) and I intend to NOT keep this transition in history, so I did

$state.go("state.name", {param: param}, {location: 'replace'});

But when I go back it still goes through all the previous states.

[somentelucas]

So, has anyone tried 'replace' and knows if that works?
Thanks

Can you post a plunkr that demonstrates the issue?

I am also seeing this behavior with release v0.2.8 (2014-01-16)

Seeing this in v0.2.10

Also seeing this is v0.2.10

Edit: Also seeing this is v0.2.11

I'm withdrawing my endorsement of this issue. Trying to replicate the issue in Plunkr revealed a bug in my code that was no fault of ui-router.

I see the same behavior.
from parent state I did
$state.go(".childState.id", $stateParams, {location: 'replace'}).
When I go back at first time, it work correctly (it return me to parent state), but if repeat this (route to child state and go back ) two or more times it goes through all states to the root state.

Post a plunkr or this won't be addressed.

I'm seeing the same thing. I'll see if I can't put replicate in plunkr. Funny, I just create a plunkr/issue for ember for their replace functionality.

Here's a plunkr http://embed.plnkr.co/1mykz3/preview.

1. Starting on route 0
2. Click on the tab for route 1, the route redirects to sub route routet1.list with location set to 'replace'
3. Click the back button, it should skip route1 and return to route0

If I repeat the last two steps, the route will no longer go back to route 0.

Edit

I replaced $state.go with $state.transitionTo and it reliably breaks for me after navigating to route1 twice.

Ping, are people able to see the issue with this plunkr?

I wasn't able to, but I am seeing this issue in my app. I'm using ui-router-extras future states, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
