Breadcrumb for Taxonomy term

have you tried the taxonomy_breadcrumb module?

this module only works by node types, not by pages or urls.

I am also interested in an alternative or method of customizing crumbs for taxonomy term pages. For instance... I create these terms under the vocabulary Videos:

Video Type >> Movies >> Movie name (the node)

This module allows me to customize the breadcrumb at the node level... AWESOME!

However, if I click on the term link "Movies", I go to the page that lists all my Movie nodes. The breadcrumb on that page would show:

Video Type >> Movies

I would like a way to customize the "Video Type" link -- both the URL and TEXT. How can I do this?

I have done something like this with taxonomy breadcrumbs....Install the tarball at http://drupal.org/node/222636#comment-1075769 . It works just fine, and I use it with custom breadcrumbs...

Here is what I would try:

1. Create a "Video" vocabulary with terms for each video type (term name is the text you want displayed).
2. Set the taxonomy_breadcrumb path (on the edit term form) for the video type terms to be whatever you want.
3. Add another term, 'Movies' to the vocabulary and under advanced options > parents (again, on the edit term form), select all the video types (ctrl-left click).
4. Set the taxonomy_breadcrumb breadcrumb for the 'Movies' term to the page that lists all your movies.*
5. Then create terms for each movie title- no need to set a tax breadcrumb here because it won't produce self - breadcrumbs. But you will want to assign Movies as the parent

That should do it. Hope this helps.

I wasn't sure why you did what you did in your step #3:

Add another term, 'Movies' to the vocabulary and under advanced options > parents (again, on the edit term form), select all the video types (ctrl-left click).

Why "select all the video types -> multiple parents" This would make the taxonomy hierarchy like this....

Vocab: WHATEVER
TERMS...
Video Type Term #1
- Movies
Video Type Term #2
- Movies
Video Type Term #3
- Movies

Instead, shouldn't we want this...

TERMS...
Movies
- Term #1
- Term #2
- Term #3

On the other hand, while testing your suggestions, I just realized... for some reason, generic breadcrumbs for both nodes and terms are not even working on my setup (without custom bc and tax bc mods enabled). All I see is the Node title or term name in text. Unfortunately this site is already in quasi production so I must debug and fix. Any suggestions on how I can fix this or debug?

This is definitely not the case on a fresh Drupal install. I tried out the tax BC special mod you suggested and found this...

With Custom BC enabled only, the BC on a term page shows this... Movies (link) / Trailers (video type term, text). When I enable the Tax BC mod you suggested, I can customize the Movies link (that's exactly what I want to do), but I get an extra Trailers term text:

Movies (custom link) / Trailers (text) / Trailers (text)

Any reason why there's an extra term? Otherwise the mod works!

Closing this issue because its been inactive for so long, and there have been new releases of both custom_breadcrumbs and taxonomy_breadcrumbs. There is a feature request to provide taxonomy term breadcrumbs in custom breadcrumbs 6.x-2.x... #287471: Support taxonomy breadcrumbs in custom breadcrumbs 2
