Breadcrumb when no record number in URL Can't Post
Hi there,

I'm having an issue getting a breadcrumb working - I think its due to the fact that I don't have the record number in the url?

Page URL's are formatted as: www.xyz.com/abc/

Here's the code:

Code
// load breadcrumbs 
  list($breadcrumbRecords, $selectedCategory) = getCategories(array( 
    'tableName'           => 'pages',          // REQUIRED 
    'categoryFormat'      => 'breadcrumb',           // showall, onelevel, twolevel, breadcrumb 
)); 
 
<div class="breadcrumb"> 
<a href="/">Home</a> 
<?php foreach ( $breadcrumbRecords as $breadcrumb ): ?> &rsaquo;  
<?php if ( $breadcrumb['num'] != getLastNumberInUrl() ): ?><a href="/<?php echo strtolower($breadcrumb['url']); ?>/"><?php endif ?> 
<?php echo $breadcrumb['name']; ?> 
<?php if ( $breadcrumb['num'] != getLastNumberInUrl() ): ?></a><?php endif ?> 
<?php endforeach ?> 
</div>

Any suggestions?

Many thanks

Hi,

You could try to use $selectedCategory instead of getting the number from the Url:

Code
<div class="breadcrumb">  
  <a href="/">Home</a>  
  <?php foreach ( $breadcrumbRecords as $breadcrumb ): ?> &rsaquo;   
    <?php if ( $breadcrumb['num'] != @$selectedCategory['num'] ): ?><a href="/<?php echo strtolower($breadcrumb['url']); ?>/"><?php endif ?>  
   
    <?php echo $breadcrumb['name']; ?>  
   
    <?php if ( $breadcrumb['num'] != @$selectedCategory['num'] ): ?></a><?php endif ?>  
  <?php endforeach ?>  
</div>

However, in order for this to work, you'll need to either have a number in the Url, or you have to set selectedCategoryNum in your getCategories call.

Hope this helps
