are we talking breadcrumbs here???

in 5.0 its all about themes and template tags… so if you dont want the forum page to be your home link, you need to tell us to adjust it in the template tag… so find the theme you are using and where you output the breadcrumbs – normally spHead.php… find the template tag – pur default is

sp_BreadCrumbs(‘tagClass=spLeft spBreadCrumbs&tree=1’, __sp(‘Home’));

and change it to specify the homelink….

sp_BreadCrumbs(‘tagClass=spLeft spBreadCrumbs&tree=1&homeLink=http://yousite.com’, __sp(‘Home’));

and you should be good to go… please remember that we dont recommend editing our themes but instead creating your own (start by copying ours if needed) so you dont lose changes on an upgrade…

I don’t think I mean bread crumbs but I might.

It is the area right below the advanced search on these forums here.

Here is my link:

Yes I know that white space is bad but I am trying to sort out where to fix that….

But clicking on the Home button there brings me to:

http://www.fwb-swtor.com/wordpress/

That url doesn’t work.

Nick

yes, thats the breadcrumb… and obviously, replace the url with what you want… ie http://www.fwb-swtor.com/

but also, we shouldnt have the /wordpress on that home link… we might be using the wrong home url for wp installs in a subdirectory… will open a ticket and check…

OK that is the bread crumb section.  Yes it must be doing something odd because no where did I ever set that during the install, not knowingly anyhow.   I don’t know how that choice is made but it seems odd to have it not be able to be set as a global option or something especially the integration level it has with wordpress.  But maybe most installs exist on that sub directory /wordpress

It is a bummer I have to do a modification for that to work correctly, I was hoping to stay out of the box for my entire install for just the same reason you laid out.  I just updated my themes and build with the automatic updater and it works so nice, oh well.

thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question, and for the great product.  I’m just now starting to use it for the first time, hopefully it works out that we keep using it.

when following a few other posts here I noticed something on another issue / thread you are working on.

http://www.wpperform.com/forums/

That home link works fine and is back on his main site without the /wordpress

Does that mean he has edited that section you mentioned above or something different during install?  An option to set somewhere in the plugin administration?

you missed what I said back in post #5… we shouldnt be putting in wordpress in the url…  its because you installed wp in a subdirectory…but it still shouldnt be there…  I have updated the code to correct for that…

if you are not running out of svn or using the nightly builds, then you will have to wait for us to push out the next update to get the changes…

From what I read in post number five you were going to look into it, I thought the extra information could be helpful but it appears you already had a handle on the issue, sorry for wasting your time.

Thanks for the update. 

Nick

you are not wasting my time… not at all…

appreciate you finding the issue before we released!

Quick question

Once it is fixed and you publish it will running that update / upgrade from the wordpress admin plugins fix the issue or would I have to do a new install?  Or is it in the theme?

It should fix itself with no interaction on your part… just use the updater and should be good… unsure when the next update will be… but not too long…
