    Hi all

    I used to do the following for my header:
    [(site_name)]: [*pagetitle*]

    But now, since i’d like to add a page (container) that contains different pages, i’d like to use the Breadcrumbs-snippet in my header and have the following format: NameOfMySite: page >> page >> ...

    I tried different things but I always get some other result. When I go to another page than the homepage (a page that is not contained by the homepage, it still shows "homepage >> nameofanotherpage"

    How can I get breadcrumbs to display the name of the homepage on the homepage, but not on the other pages that are on the surface/first-level of the site, but still showing multiple pages if you are on a page that’s in a container ("NameOfContainerPage >> NameOfContainedPage").

    It’s kind of hard to make this clear, but this is what I want:
    NameOfMySite: NameOfPage1 >> NameOfPageContainedByPage1

    and not this:
    NameOfMySite: NameOfPage1 >> NameOfPage2(Not contained by page1)

    Thx in advance
    Greetings, Kenny

      Another weird thing is that when i do
      &showCrumbsAtHome=`1`
      it shows "NameOfHomepage >> NameOfHomepage" and when it’s set to 0 (default) it doesn’t show anything at all, which gives "NameOfMySite: " in my case, and that’s not a sight is it now wink

      I have already succeeded to get this result:
      "NameOfMySite >> NameOfPage(home or any other that’s first level) >> NameOfPage (on level 2, thus contained by earlier page)"
      I did this by setting the css property display to none for the first element of the crumb trail.

      This is almost perfect except for the ":" behind my site’s name.


      I think Breadcrumbs is inconsistent, standard it displays nothing on the homepage. If you go to another page it displays "NameOfHomepage >> NameOfCurrentPage" so i thought "maybe cause i clicked from the homepage to this page", but when i then click on to another page (in the menu, not underneath the current page) it doenst say "NameOfHomePage>>NameOfPreviousPage>>NameOfCurrentPage" but just "NameOfHomepage >> NameOfCurrentPage".
      And then, when i tell it to display something on the homepage too, it displays the name of the homepage twice...

      It’s kind of difficult to explain or understand this by written words, but I hope someone gets my point.

      Grtz, K?!
