Make taxonomy breadcrumb compatible with views and Panels 3

Issue Summary

Hi,

Just to say Taxonomy Breadcrumb is unusable along with Panels 3.
TB does nothing to taxonomy pages except changing the breadcrumb, yet Panels 3 warns that the page is already overridden by Taxonomy Breadcrumb, and thus, cannot change its layout.

I think it is quite an important report, because Panels 3 is surely going to be widely used.

Title:Taxonomy breadcrumb breaks Panels 3 taxonomy pages» Make taxonomy breadcrumb compatible with views and Panels 3
Category:bug report» task

This is a known issue. To be accurate, Taxonomy breadcrumb doesn't "break" Panels 3 pages. Panels 3 simply recognizes that the the core taxonomy pages are being modified by tax breadcrumbs and (by design) will not attempt to override. The modules actually play nicely with each other!

I have made all of these modules work together using custom breadcrumbs 2 (I would recommend testing 6.x-2.x-dev and the custom_breadcrumbs_taxonomy and/or views sub-modules - working on a stable release). So if you want this, you might consider using Custom breadcrumbs instead of taxonomy breadcrumbs. It implements views and panels hooks so it doesn't interfere with these modules.

Hey thanks :)
And yep, I finally used Custom Breadcrumbs :), it does the job well.

Thanks again !

Not seeing the need to duplicate the code in taxonomy breadcrumb, so I am marking this as won't fix.

#4

Personally, I see this as disappointing that it won't be fixed. It seems illogical to suggest that the modules are playing nicely together when installing taxonomy breadcrumb results ina currently active Panel page set up to override the default taxonomy listing page being disabled, with no notice to the site administrator. Taxonomy Breadcrumbs is offering nothing on a taxonomy listing page, which will already have a taxonomy-based breadcrumb anyway, yet prevents the user from overriding the content displayed on this page.

#5

Again, see #3 above. I don't see the need to duplicate code between modules. I've already implemented this is custom breadcumbs 6.x-2.x (the custom_breadcrumbs_panels and custom_breadcrumbs_taxonomy submodules). I would recommend testing that. I could use the help.

Thanks
