Hi,

Is it possible to get the title of the menu-items in the breadcrumbs. And not the page-title. Cause the page title can get very long and mixes up the breadcrumb.

Or is it possible to add a kind of an alias /short title to a page which can be used in the breadcrumb.

Greetz, Lydia

have you looked at drupal's own modules page? drupalmodules.com? done a simple google search for custom breadcrumbs? try some of those...

personally, i like 'clickpath module' a lot - lets you control characters per item as well which will resolve your long titles issue...but that's just my preference...

Hi,

Yes i searched a lot. I tried menu_breadcrumb and also custom_breadcrumb.
I thought clickpath does not show the clean breadcrumb but the way you got to the page. That is not what i need.

I also spend a lot of time looking into the code. What i see is that the breadcrumb is taken from the active_trail, which holds the page-info. I could not find the menu_item_title there.

I need the standard breadcrumb, but with just a shorter title.

Uhm, stupid of me... i quess... i did not know drupalmodules.com. I have been searching drupal.org for modules. Searching here for modules is not so advanced. I hope drupalmodules is better. Thanks!
But i hope someone can still help me on the breadcrumb
