Removes double leading "Home" link when a menu top item links to the front page

mesr01,

In your code below

if (variable_get('menu_breadcrumb_single_home_link', FALSE)
      && isset($active_trail[0]) && isset($active_trail[1])
      && $active_trail[0]['href'] === '<front>' && $active_trail[1]['href'] === '<front>')

We can modify this patch and come up with a new functionality.
If a user wants to remove the home link/text from the breadcrumb, then via this they can remove it completely, even if the link does not exists in the main menu. (More flexibility)

if (variable_get('menu_breadcrumb_single_home_link', FALSE)
      && isset($active_trail[0]) && $active_trail[0]['href'] === '<front>')

Comments and suggestions welcomed.

Rather than special casing for <front>, why don't we (optionally, or per default) reduce duplicates once we've generated the breadcrumb? That would seem more sensible. I imagine lots of sites already have Home > ViewA > ViewA+Filter > Node structures, this might be beneficial for that case too.

grobot,

Yes we can, we can provide an admin option to remove any possible duplicates.
Apart from that I am thinking about adding an option to remove the "HOME" link from the menu.

I have added the option to remove the Home / link to front page.
It is in dev mode, if required, please test it and let me know if you face any issues.
I will then work on adding a check for removing duplicate enteries from the Breadcrumb.

This is also an issue in D8 with multilingual sites. Is the solution similar to the solution in this patch?

Closing a lot of ancient (> 4 years) issues. It's fine to re-open if you think there's something of value to be discussed.
