Breadcrumb Links ***17/05/12***

Post by BaconFries »

Breadcrumb Links

This is a update of the Breadcrum Extension already available by former member and extension builder Eddy. I have simply rebuilt using the latest extension builder so to ensure that it will be available to users of WYSIWYG Web Builder.

Breadcrumb Links uses JavaScript to read where your page is in the site folder structure and build back links to the pages higher up in the hierarchy.

Tip: If you use your pages in folders than give the first page in your folder the name index and the folder the name from your first page.


Built with Extension Builder 3.0.1

Thanks :) I thought I would just update this as it was mentioned in another topic in forum were the user said they couldnt get it to install using Eddy's. Regarding Eddy from the last contact with him he had changed jobs and with other comitments didnt have the same amount of time to help in the forum as he would like but he hopes that this will change and try to get back to helping in the way we were all used to.

What a coincidence! I have been researching breadcrumbs for a couple of days and was about to work on a jQuery breadcrumb extension. Hmmm, will have to check this one out first then ;)

EDIT: Nice job BF, as usual. Nice and simple. Hmmmm, shall I or shan't I? lol.

Jos,

First which breadcrum extension are you using - then post in the relevant thread. There are two, I am the author of jCrumb, Bacon does the other one.

Second post a URL so we can see what you have done.

Third consider posting your project file.

From a quick look using Firebug I can see that the script is in place, the CSS is referenced and I can see the div that should be the breadcrumbs.

The problem is simply that you are NOT using a menu system that generates an UNORDERED LIST structure. See the demo again and read the HELP file.........I quote

"You will need a navigation menu that generates an unordered list <UL> structure and jCrumb uses cookies, therefore pages must run from a server. Breadcrumbs are taken from the page title."


Demo page - clear and upfront says:-

"Requires a navigation menu that uses an Unordered List structure

<ul>
<li><a href="./1.html" target="_self">Home</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="./2.html" target="_self">Two</a></li>
<li><a href="./3.html" target="_self">Three</a></li>
<li><a href="./4.html" target="_self">Four</a></li>
<li><a href="./5.html" target="_self">Five</a></li>
<ul>

As generated in menus such as WWB's Mega Menu, Menu Bar, Navigation Bar, Slide Menu and Tab Menu. Or extension menus such as Image Swap Menu, Kick-Butt Mega Menu, Overlay Menu and Slide Down Box Menu."



Your menu is a TEXT menu - no <ul> or <li> are generated with that menu.
