Hey,

I just downloaded Drupal 6 the other day and once again I'm amazed at an incredible platform.

I'm trying to implement child menu items (/admin/build/menu-customize/primary-links). Everything works perfectly, with the single exception of the breadcrum trail which, on my pages, always only points "home"; although it is working properly on the admin pages (i.e., Home › Administer › Site building › Menus ›).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

this "home" on every page (content/) is old news! there are a couple of modules that can give you more control and influence over what appears:

custom breadcrumbs module - just like it sounds - somebody goes to your blog and you can have it say "home > jim's super blog" instead of "home" - and use basic tags to include items like date and so on...

taxonomy breadcrumbs module - builds from the taxonomy and term, though i've had a little trouble getting it to do what i want...

so after trying and then disabling those first two, i wound up with:

clickpath module (actually very nice - will produce a block for you to put up showing each user his/her last X pages/nodes viewed AND offers an option to replace the site breadcrumb trail with the actual path the user has followed to get to where he/she is - strikes some people as much more intuitive than a category/taxonomy driven breadcrumb) - but when you use it, be sure to add */feed to the 'ignore' paths (you can dig into support forums for my issue with that)
