Adjust Breadcrumbs code was created by Twinkiez

Hello,

This is by far the best CCK I've ever used and my clients like it. Since my clients are perfectionists, they want the breadcrumbs to be logical and correct.

Right now whenever I post a link through a menu, I'll get Home>NameofMenu>MainCat>Subcat>ArticleItem and while I don't really care, they really don't want that NameofMenu in there.

I have already tried using the Item Depth and selecting no to Add Item to Pathway.

What I want to know is which file handles the breadcrumbs so I can simply edit this part. If anyone knows, it will be extremely helpful.

I have set all of the menus to show Root and Add to Pathway to Yes. As some of you may know, there are duplicates showing, but the whole logic of the breadcrumbs system is off.

It shows items almost in reverse, as you can see on this page ( www.nhsofnewhaven.org/NHS/index . ... &Itemid=95 )

Instead of showing Home > Completed Houses > Dixwell/Newhallville > Programs > Affordable Housing Development > Dixwell/Newhallville, my clients want it to show

Home > Programs > Affordable Housing Development > Completed Houses > Dixwell/Newhallville

I just want to know what I need to do to get it to look like that. This minor (well turning out to be more than minor) problem is the only thing keeping us from launching the beta site. Any help in this matter will be greatly appreciated!

I guess I found out where the breadcrumbs pathway is "enhanced".

The question is how do I change it. The code looks like this

Code:

// Pathway need to be improved
		$cats		= new flexicontent_cats($cid);
        $parents	= $cats->getParentlist();
		$pathway 	=& $mainframe->getPathWay();
		$depth		= $params->get('item_depth', 0);

		for($p = $depth; $p<count($parents); $p++) {
			$pathway->addItem( $this->escape($parents[$p]->title), JRoute::_( FlexicontentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($parents[$p]->categoryslug) ) );
		}
		if ($params->get('add_item_pathway', 1)) {
			$pathway->addItem( $this->escape($item->title), JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($item->slug)) );
		}

What do I change to make it look like Home > Programs > Affordable Housing Development > Completed Houses > Dixwell/Newhallville ?

I'v got a similar problem. I want to get rid of the "parent categories" in the pathway.

Can you please share in which file you found the code snipet you posted?

Thanks a lot
