It would be nice to have an option that would allow for nodes that are in the drupal menu system heirarchy (which sets its own breadcrumbs based on menu path) to not have their breadcrumbs overwritten by taxonomy breadcrumb. Basically, let the menu system breadcrumb have priority. Any ideas on how to do this another way would be great. Maybe a feature for taxonomy_breadcrumb? This option would allow setting up custom paths for taxonomy terms in the breadcrumb on pages that are not in the menu tree -- and leave the menu assigned nodes alone. Good for SEO. Thanks for your consideration.

I like the idea, and would welcome a patch that would do this. At the moment I don't have time to investigate how to make this work, but I will leave it as an open feature request in the hope that someone else would like to contribute.

Thanks for the idea!

I guess what would be the best is a general module, something like "pathauto", but for breadcrumbs, so that you can choose, for each content type, and each taxonomy, how breadcrumbs should be constructed.

Unfortunately I don't have the drupal experience needed to contribute too much to this except for testing.

Well, I read now on the project page for "Custom Breadcrumb" ( http://drupal.org/project/custom_breadcrumbs ) that integration between that module, and this one, is in the workings, so thumbs up for that!

@Samuel Lampa, yes in fact the integration is underway. See #287471: Support taxonomy breadcrumbs in custom breadcrumbs 2 for a discussion of features/use cases for custom_breadcrumbs_taxonomy for D6.

@lutegrass, Unfortunately, I am still not sure how to avoid overriding the menu system heirarchy, so I will leave this as an active feature request.
