  2. scroll to the bottom of the page

Other relevant information

I found a bunch of old issues and PR regarding this problem, #1071 #1075 #1107 #1108 and it looks like there where a lot of back-and-forth.

The current behavior is really anoying when using the documentation I am writing, the back to top plugin make a bit more useable but it will be much better to have a standard navigation (when you change page, you start at the top).

Research direction
The issue is about scrolling to top on page navigation in VuePress. Examine the scroll behavior in Vue Router configuration. Review closed PRs #1071, #1075, #1107, #1108 to understand previous attempts and why they weren't merged. The fix likely involves resetting scroll position on route change in the theme's layout or client.js file. Ensure compatibility with the back to top plugin if present.
