What's the simplest way with this jQuery change function to enable bookmarked hash links to work, i.e to be able to use example.com/#theme1
or example.com/#theme2
links?
The jQuery #theme-selector
changes the hash and shows/hides the relevant divs with the class, i.e. .theme1
or .theme2
, but when going to example.com/#theme1
from a bookmarked link, all divs are shown.
In addition, if I refresh example.com/#theme1
, the hash remains #theme1
, but all divs are shown.
Some other questions on SO deal with bookmarkable hashes, but they're many years old. And some libraries that appear useful are ten years old, too, like https://github.com/asual/jquery-address
Unfortunately, running the snippet here won't show browser hash changes, nor will JSFiddle.

@SKJ's answer works in an html file opened with a browser, and shows bookmarkable links and retains the hash on refresh. But for some reason, it doesn't work on a live server. On the live server, there are no console errors; the dropdown #theme-selector works and filters the divs, but bookmarkable links don't work, and on a page reload, the URL hash is ignored and the selector resets to all-themes and all divs show.
But.... I have some older plain Javascript where these filters work and also bookmarkable links work; but I'm trying to simplify and replace it with jQuery (and I've also changed the html markup), hence this SO question.
So what is it in this plain Javascript https://pastebin.com/JUDizTXA that works for bookmarkable links and refresh-proof URL hashes? What can be adapted to this new jQuery to enable bookmarkable links refresh-proof URL hashes?
jQuery(document).ready(function(jQuery){
jQuery("#theme-selector").change(function () {
var urlhash = document.getElementById('theme-selector').value;
window.location.hash = urlhash;
});
jQuery("#theme-selector").change(function () {
themeclass = window.location.hash.substr(1);
jQuery('.blockcontent').hide();
jQuery('.' +themeclass).show();
jQuery('.theme-header').hide();
jQuery('.' +themeclass).show();
});
});
.blockcontent {
display:inline-block;
width:150px;
border:1px solid #acacac;
}
.theme-header {
display:none;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="theme-selector">Filter by Theme:</label>
<select name="theme-selector" id="theme-selector" value="">
<option value="all-themes">All Themes</option>
<option value="theme1">Theme 1</option>
<option value="theme2">Theme 2</option>
<option value="theme3">Theme 3</option>
</select>
<br>
<div id="theme-description-container">
<div class="theme1 theme-header">Theme 1 Description</div>
<div class="theme2 theme-header">Theme 2 Description</div>
<div class="theme3 theme-header">Theme 3 Description</div>
</div>
<br>
<div class="blockcontent all-themes theme1">
theme1<br><br>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do
</div>
<div class="blockcontent all-themes theme2">
theme2<br><br>sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt sed do eiusmod eiusmod

<div class="blockcontent all-themes theme3">
