Is it possible to globaly hide the category-name in the Forum-Breadcrumb? {include:breadcrumb} includes the «Forum Home», Category, Forum and Title — but I wan't to get rid of the category.
What do I have to edit in the modules/forum-folder to delete the category from the breadcrumb?
I think I found it in the Code-Snippets in mod.forum.php starting at line ~1770 // Is this a forum view? AND the snippet starting at line ~1810 // Is this the thread view? … just delete or comment-out the code starting with:
$crumbs .= $this->_crumb_trail(
…
… where you find forum_path('/viewcategory… inside.
That's the crumb with the Category in it. If you comment-out the two, you don't have the Category anymore in the /viewforum and /viewthread views.
Search for other references if you want to get rid of it also on other views.
I'm not sure that this is possible. I just looked at the default theme for the discussion module and in forum_breadcrumb > breadcrumb_trail.html there is the following code, which suggests to me that it's 100% dynamically generated. I know that there is no gui interface to turn on/off various aspects of breadcrumbs.
<a href="{crumb_link}">{crumb_title}</a><span class="breadcrumbspacer"> > </span>
You'll probably need to modify the actually php files for the dicussion module to remove the categories. The discussion module is notoriously difficult to theme and customize.
