Description

Hi,

I installed the new release, and enabled the Extended primary links block. But my breadcrumbs are not showing, and I only noticed this because I'm using the [menupath] token for pathauto, and saw that my path reset to node/xx after edit. Then I noticed the breadcrumb isn't showing at all.

Have you experienced this? I don't see an existing issue, but wondering if there's anything I can do about it?

Cheers!
Scott

Hi,

I think you're running into a Drupal 6 behaviour which is addressed by menu_breadcrumb. Have a look at that module, give it a try and see if it solves your problem.

Assumed to be fixed since I haven't heard anything further.

Hello...

Menu Breadcrumbs doesn't work when Node Hierarchy is enabled.
(I'm moving this issue from Submenu Tree, because I ruled out that module's involvement).

I had a new D6.3 (later D6.4) installation, running Submenu Tree & Menu Breadcrumbs too, but the breadcrumbs didn't reflect the menu hierarchy when on those pages.

At first I thought maybe it was the Zen theme's Breadcrumb function maybe getting in the way - but even in Garland, this was still an issue.

I then tried to rule out any other module that might be conflicting.
* I removed Submenu Tree, and guess what? The issue was still there.
* I removed Menu Breadcrumbs, and (of course) that didn't fix my problem because what I wanted was non-default behavoir - making breadcrumbs reflect primary links menu hierarchy.
* Then I disabled the Node Hierarchy module, and the issue went away!

But is this an issue in Node Hierarchy, or Menu Breadcrumbs? For now moving to Node Hierarchy, though maybe the issue lies with Menu Breadcrumbs instead (if so please let me know?).

Thanks! It seems not many people have run into this problem yet, but ideally these 2 mods would play nice togehter

:) Scott

Version:6.x-1.0» 6.x-1.2

I just tried node hierarchy (6.x-1.2) for the first time, on a vanilla install of drupal 6.9, and ran into the same problem. I set up some content under the primary links, and set that as the default menu for node hierarchy. It is all working well, except that all the breadcrumbs only have "Home". I added menu_breadcrumb and turned on everything in its configuration. No change in breadcrumb behaviour for nodes created via node hierarchy before or after that change.

I also tried turning off pathauto and menu_block, and I tried setting the parent menu to Navigation rather than primary links. Neither worked. No matter what I do, I can't get breadcrumbs under node hierarchy.

Extra modules enabled:

menu_block menu_breadcrumb nodehierarchy pathauto token

On further examination, I see that it is creating a breadcrumb, but incorrectly. The breadcrumb does not include the current level, only the parents. This is true even if menu_breadcrumb is enabled and "Append page title to breadcrumb" is selected.

If I turn off the node_hierachy module and look at the nodes that it had created, then the breadcrumbs look fine. So the problem would seem to be in this module.

Node hierarchy manipulates the breadcrumbs so that they reflect the current hierarchy (in case it is different from the menu structure). I don't use menu_breadcrumb, but I assume that if both modules are trying to set the breadcrumb, somebody's going to lose. Do you guys think an appropriate solution would be for me to leave the breadcrumbs as is if menu_breadcrumb is installed?

Thanks
Ronan
