Support/Comments for Breadcrumbs

Hello, this plugin is great and works perfectly but there is one cofiguration option I need for a specific project that does not seem to be included. I need an option that lets me set the levels deep to not display the crumbs at all instead of just the home. For example:

On "home" and "home>services" I don’t want to show the crumb at all but on "home>services>repairs" I do.

Maybe the feature that lets you not show on the home page could be changed to a feature that lets you not display on pages that are x number of lvls from root. So to not show on the home you would enter a "1" value and to not show on the home or its direct children pages you would enter a "2".

Short of a config option a hack would do nicely:-)

Thanks

This snippet gives the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ’<’ in /home/modx/public_html/manager/includes/document.parser.class.inc.php(705) : eval()’d code on line 1

Any idea why?

Remove the <?php on the first line of the snippet, and the closing ?> on the last.

That resulted in a...

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/modx/public_html/manager/includes/document.parser.class.inc.php(705) : eval()’d code on line 72

Then something has gone wrong when you have copypasted the code into modx manager, line 72 and around that are just comment lines.

You’re right. It works. Very neat snippet!

I’m having some problems getting the parameters to work with breadcrumbs. Maybe someone can help me. I want the breadcrumbs trail to show up on the homepage, and i also want the max crumbs to be 3. Also, I have my website setup to "use friendly aliases", which requires me to reference objects by their absolute path. Breadcrumbs isn’t doing that.
for example. i am on a page with a path of http://website.com/folder/page.html. breadcrumbs interprets that as Home >> Folder >> Page. But, the link for "folder" will be referenced as "folder" instead of "/folder", so the browser interpets it as http://website.com/folder/page.html/folder. Does that make any kind of sense?
I kinda don’t know what to do anymore. Any suggestions?

Post your parameter call.

All i’m using is [!Breadcrumbs? $maxCrumbs=`2` $showCrumbsAtHome=`1`!]. Any advice?

replace $ with &
