Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

Also, I’ve hacked this plugin a lot to make it work form me:

  • I added a slash at the end of section URLs, so that they become the canonical URLs zem_redirect would produce.
  • I wanted a site hierarchy with categories under sections, so I’ve changed the category URLs to include $pretext["s"].'/'. before the query part of the URL.
  • I extended name replacements to work for categories too. See why.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

I can’t seem to get this tag to display my article name. It just shows my homesite name and the section. A few people had this problem before. But I couldn’t not get them to tell me how they solve the problem. Can anyone here help?

Version 1 works, but it won’t output the title. Version 2 doesn’t work for me.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

I have the same problem as Kirk. The homesite name and the section is shown, but not the article title.

I use v0.2

Please, someone – build a working crumbs plugin ;)

I read what you wrote. Maybe I’m just stupid, but I didn’t get it to work.

I want the crumbs to display like this:

home > section > category > article title

All I got was:

home > section

when using format “scc”.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

You can’t put <txp:tcm_ crumbs /> before <txp:article /> or its variants (article_custom, chh_article_custom) in your pages. Do it the other way and it will work.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

kirk & tee – you are using the plugin within the article form, right?

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

Does it have to be one of those specific forms, or can it be any form with type ‘article’?

I’m curious just because I’m thinking of trying to get titles working in the crumbs on my site, and there’s no way I could fit it into the page’s main article tag right now.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

it needs to be in the article form (at least for now) because the $thisarticle variable only exists within the article form.

If you are going to use it on an individual article form, you can avoid this formatting problem pretty simply just by making a new article form with just the crumbs in it, and having two txp_article tags on the page. the one with the crumbs will just use the same $_GET values as the other one, so it will work with the article title.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

tmacwrig: I disagree. You may as well put it after the article body in your page, as long as it is placed after txp:article or the relevant, so that $thisarticle has already been loaded. I’m doing this and it works just fine.

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

I did what Etz Haim said and it works. The problem is that I’m gonna have to figure out a way to put the crumbs on top of the page while having the tag itself go after the article tag. That’ll be hard.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kirk

Re: [archived] tcm_crumbs

Why not try out the new breadcrumb functionality in RC3 and ee how that goes?
