I have a couple of questions regarding just using the css-only as a custom theme. I am following this tutorial here but instead of using the default theme I am using css-only theme. My question is, in step 3 renaming your custom's theme file, there is no default.php file. How do I go about getting it there or if I am using the css-only is it necessary to have? This is my 1st question, my second question is, how do I go about doing the breadcrumbs at the top like they are on this forum? Is this a plugin or is it straight CSS coding?

I tried looking in the forum but did not really see what I was looking for.

Thanks

Angie

In the case of css-only then it IS the css-only.css file that needs a name change to reflect the theme file name you have adopted. It just needs to be the same as the folder/theme name with the extension of .css.

The breadcrumbs as we have them here are a custom change we made. I will need Brandon to step up and tell you where to look for some help with these.

There is no easy way to install the breadcrumbs like what is used here. In fact there are about 7 pages on the topic here.
https://simple-press.com/suppor…..ngle-line/ and I don't think we ever created a full fledged example.

It requires adding a new function to the SP theme, creating a couple of new graphics, adding so CSS and then quite a but of testing.

If up for it I would read all those posts in the link above and then get back to us with questions.
