If you have a view (for example a block) that is displayed on every page and output the $body from a node the breadcrumbs breaks the site and nothing on the site becomes active.

How do recreate this problem:

  1. create a node with a body
  2. create a view that outputs a block with that node. Create a block, choose list-view and add title and body to the list items.
  3. Show this block on all pages
  4. create a basic menu structure
  5. tell menutrails that the node should be related to any menuitem

Now the current statment should break and not be working for the node, when the block is also displayed. If you remove the $body from the view the menu trail starts working again.

Hi,

has anyone found a solution for this problem?? The module is a really good idea, but if it conflicts with one of the most important modules, it's useless for me...

Greetings,

I found the solution (at least for me), even if I don't really know why:

if you place your views block in the content region, the menu trails module (but also if you try to use menu_set_location alone i think) get's "confused"...
I made a new region via template file et voila, it worked again... would be interesting to now what's happening there...

greetings
