@ToMix,
From your url http://mysite.com/ci/admin/users_accounts with your replacer config it should have breadcrumb like: Home > Ci > Admin Area > Manage Users. With “ci” as part of url then it should also become a part of breadcrumb, how you remove “Ci” from breadcrumb? Do you use either $config[‘exclude’] = array(‘ci’) or $config[‘exclude_segment’] = array(1)?

Hi,

I set this line :

$config[‘set_home’] = “Home”;

in my config file.

so i got breadcrumb like: Home > Admin Area > Manage Users

*/*/*/*/*/*/

if you mean why my url dose not looks like this:

http://mysite.com/index.php/ci/admin/users_accounts

i used (.htaccess) file to remove the (index.php) from the url ..

ToMix, I also used .htaccess to remove index.php from url and that doesn’t affect in my breadcrumb helper.

I still don’t understand how can “CI” [http://mysite.com/ CI /admin/users_accounts] as part of your URL not showing in breadcrumb

ardinotow

mybe because this line in config/config.php:

$config[‘base_url’]= “http://localhost/ci/”;

could you help me and solve my problem @ this post http://ellislab.com/forums/viewreply/733791/

please, 😊

ToMix, please try the new update. Let me know if this can’t solve your problem.

** Breadcrumb Helper 4.10.1 **

Bug fixed:
1. Sometimes the replacer only replace the value of last segment.

Enjoy,

You’re welcome 😊

This is great! EXACTLY what I wanted!
Thanks.

Actually, it’s not exactly what I need. I’m creating a forum, and so on topic pages, for example I have the url:

http://localhost/topic/view/12/gasdfa

It produces the breadcrumbs:

Home
Topic
gasdfa

which is good. However, I know I can rename Topic to Category, but two things:

1) Can I change the link that Topic/Category links to (such as it now links to localhost/topic but can I have it to localhost/category-of-topic, I’ll need to pass in a variable here) ?
2) How can I pass in a variable to change Topic to the correct category name (such as News and Announcements)?

Because the config is in config/ not a controller, I cannot do any logic on it!

Edit: I would like this to happen:

Home
News And Announcements (with correct link) - this can be decided by logic
gasdfa

Hi -Gareth,

I think your request can be done without modifying the breadcrumb helper. You can change your url to be more SEO friendly (also autoCRUMB friendly) like this: http://localhost/topic/view/news-and-announcement/gasdfa. What do you think?

That is a possibility, however I’d still like to have it as I did…
Are there any other possibilities? I’m not particularly happy having both the category and topic names in the url..

Gareth,
I think you can try this:
1. Find this line in breadcrumb_helper

function set_breadcrumb($delimiter = '', $exclude = '')

function set_breadcrumb($mod_uri = '', $delimiter = '', $exclude = '')

2. Find this line in breadcrumb_helper

$uri = rtrim($CI->uri->uri_string(),'/');

change to

if ($mod_uri)
{
   $uri = rtrim($mod_uri,'/');
}
elseif ( ! $mod_uri)
{
   $uri = rtrim($CI->uri->uri_string(),'/');
}

3. Now, in your page where you want to show breadcrumb, change standard breadcrumb caller like

<?php echo set_breadcrumb(); ?>

to

<?php 
   $mod_uri = "/your/new_url_link/for_breadcrumb"; // exclude base url
   echo set_breadcrumb($mod_uri); 
?>

You can also parse $mod_uri from your controller so you can do any logic on it. Hope that works. I don’t have time to try those code from my localhost, so please let me know the result.

Thx for the nice Helper!

Could there be possible to use arrays in replace to make two out of one?

Like this

URL: mysite.com/category_listing 
CRUMBS: Home > Categorys

URL: mysite.com/category
CRUMBS: Home > CategorysListing > Category

URL: mysite.com/category/item
CRUMBS: Home > CategorysListing > Category > Item

by using

$config['replace'] = array('category' => array('category_listing' => Categorys, 'category' => 'Category'));

Well lets see if I have time to hack.

@ElToro,
Feel free to hack it 😊

Ok, I had some time to play around with it.. and it is done. I still need to figure out how I can send merge request or something like in from windows hg client.
