Group name not appearing in breadcrumb

Not sure why, but I am not getting my group names in the breadcrumbs? I only get the main “home” and “forum” and then straight to forum/topic, no groups listed.  This is a problem as it makes it difficult for the user to go back to the group after reading.  Any thoughts?

have you enabled showing the group name??  you have to set groupLink=1 in the template tag argument list…  ie

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

in the spHead.php template file… of course, we recommend creating your own theme instead of editing ours so you dont lose changes on updates…

No, I haven’t done this, should I have known to?  I feel like a dummy.  I will give this a try to let you know the verdict. 🙂

Worked like a charm.  I honestly had no idea I needed to edit the code to get this included.  I don’t remember doing this in the past with other versions?

 

Thank you for your help. 🙂

Well, I would like to say yes, but I cannot… wink

our codex docs (http://codex.simple-press.com) for 5.0 is not quite ready yet as we are just starting to populate it…

so everything is theme based now and most options are via arguments to template tags… until we finish the documentation you either need to ask or look at the code… so no worries!
