Issue Summary
These are hopefully simple questions:
I already have the Menu Breadcrumb module...does Custom Breadcrumb add to it, perhaps? Can it "play together" with it? Or are these two modules maybe somehow mutually incompatible?
TIA!
Comments
#1
Both modules will set the breadcrumb for a page. Custom breadcrumbs sets it according to node type, while menu breadcrumb sets it according to the menu structure. You should be able to use both together. menu breadcrumb will set the breadcrumb first, on page load, regardless of the type of page. If its a node of a type for which you have defined a custom breadcrumb, then custom breadcrumb will change the breadcrumb. So you could use menu breadcrumb to set a default standard, and then let custom breadcrumbs provide the exceptions.
They should play nicely together, at least in principle. I haven't actually tried, so please leave feedback if you have any experience with this.

Am I right in thinking that custom_breadcrumbs now also provides the same functionality as the menu_breadcrumb module? There is an option to 'Use the menu structure to set the breadcrumb trail' (although I can't seem to get it to do anything).

subscribing.

@mrfelton, based on the last issue that I just fixed, I assume the question has been answered now. CB 6.x-2.x-dev does allow patterning of the breadcrumb trail from the menu structure. It does provides some of the base functionality that the menu_breadcrumbs module, but doesn't attempt to fully duplicate it.
