MGN commentedThe documentation for the module describes the basic ideas.
If you want breadcrumbs based on the taxonomy term structure (including parents and possibly vocabulary terms) its pretty simple.
1. Enable custom_breadcrumbs_taxonomy
2. Go to /admin/settings/custom-breadcrumbs
3. Enable 'Use the taxonomy hierarchy to set the breadcrumb trail for nodes and taxonomy pages'
4. Enable 'Show current taxonomy term in breadcrumb trail?'
5. And since you mentioned views pages, enable 'Use taxonomy breadcrumbs for views?'
That's the minimum setup required. Now when you visit views and nodes that have a taxonomy term, the breadcrumb trail will built from the term structure, with taxonomy terms linked to their term pages.
By default, the vocabulary will not show up in the bredcrumb trail, since its not clear what page to link it to (taxonomy doesn't have a default page for vocabularies).
You can force the vocabulary to be listed in the breadcrumb trail by enabling 'Show vocabulary in breadcrumb trail?' at admin/settings/custom-breadcrumbs. In this case the breadcrumb trail will show the name of the vocabulary, but it won't be linked to anything.
If you have a particular url that you would like to link to a specific vocabulary, do the following:
1. visit admin/build/custom_breadcrumbs
2. Click on the Taxonomy Vocabulary tab
3. Select the vocabulary
4. Enter the path that you want it linked to in the Path section. Note that there are some placeholder tokens that you can use in the path, if needed.
5. (Leave breadcrumb visibility blank - its not needed for basic operation.)
6. Click on the save button!
That's it. Now when you visit a node with a taxonomy term from that vocabulary, the breadcrumb will be Home >> [VOCABULARY] >> TERM >> [TERM].
There is more that can be done - this is just one typical use-case.
If you need additional help setting it up, let us know
1. what type of page (node, view, panel, ... ) the breadcrumb is for
2. a specific example of the taxonomy structure that you have set up
3. what you want the breadcrumb to look like
Hope this helps!

kalilo commentedI have the same question. and still confused..
the link to documentation is showing an error in firefox: Corrupted Content Error.
also there is no 'Use the taxonomy hierarchy to set the breadcrumb trail for nodes and taxonomy pages' option in my site. the only option I have is this: Add a new custom breadcrumb
I’m using Drupal 6, with Custom breadcrumbs version: 6.x-1.5.
Any help will be appreciated.
