    I’m trying to port my production site from Engine Hosting down to a “localhost” XAMPP development and test server, and everything seems to be working except, in Forums…
    1. When I first go to a forum, I arrive on the “localhost” forum page as expected.
    2. When I then click anywhere in the breadcrumb, it takes me to my production site instead.

    From looking at the code, the {breadcrumb} variable just shows up, but is not otherwise documented best that I can tell.

    Any thoughts on what might be needed to have all breadcrumb links point to “localhost” as well?  Would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!!  Larry A.

    Have you checked your paths?

    For instance: Forum URL - is that set to your local install?

    Would love to.  Where do I find?  I’m on 1.6.9.  Thanks.

    Okay, I found under…

    EE CP/Modules/Discussion Forum/Forum Management/Default Preferences/General Settings

    Changed to localhost and is now working fine. Thanks.
