Hi Guys,

I am trying to find a way to get my current uri and then split it for a breadcrumb menu.
Is their a native EE function that can do this?

Any help will be great.

Hi Mat

You could use URL Segment Variables (see: http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/templates/globals/url_segments.html )

Just realised that URL Segments will-only-give-you-hyphenated-wording.

Here are some add-ons that may help: http://devot-ee.com/search/results/search&keywords=breadcrumb&channel=addons&addon_version_support=ee2/

Thanks Matt:P , I am going to look into it now.

Hi Mat,

As Matt:P has mentioned you can either use segment variables in order to get at the different parts of the URL or a 3rd party add-on to do something along those lines too.

Would you like me to move this post down to our Community Help forums to see if anyone else has any ideas on this one?

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Yes thanks that would be great. The segmented url is that the same as codeIgniters $this->uri->segment() function.

Hi Mat,

Moving as per request.

Cheers,

Mark
