View Full Version : Simple Breadcrumb Below Last Post

Everyone will need this hack. Yes, even you!

Description
Are you familiar with the location of the "Previous and Next Thread" links below the last post? Are you sick of scrolling all the way to the top to go back to the forum list or thread list? With this hack, you can add the same breadcrumb found at the top directly below the last post of each page.

Templates to edit: 1 (SHOWTHREAD)

Comments
I don't really have too much to say. I just know that it's rather annoying scrolling to the top to go back to the previous forum. This is a lot easier to navigate after reading a thread or making a post.

04/12/2006- Tested on 3.5.4 and works perfectly.
01/13/2006- Tested on 3.5.3 and works perfectly.

This should be STANDARD in default vB! God only knows why they put the links up top, especially when everyone reads threads from top to bottom :ermm: Thanks so much for this hack!

I don't think it should be standard in vB as a lot of skins don't have such a breadcrum thingy ;)

I think it should be a standard option to add it. vBulletin seems to base all of their options on their own default style. That being said, it should be default. =D

I did this as well but jazzed it up a little:


<!-- MININAV -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" align="center" border="0">
<td class="tcat">
<strong>&laquo;</strong>
<span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]
<strong>&raquo;</strong>
</td>
</table>
<br />
<!-- / MININAV -->


If you want, just change the:

<td class="tcat">

to "alt1" , "alt2" , etc. to adjust the output.

ok this may sound stupid but I am still pretty new to these hack's.

What exactly am I doing here?

1. If you have not already, create a custom profile field.

Oh wow. I didn't even realize I did that. I thank you for pointing that out. Step one was not apart of this hack. Only step two and three needed to be executed.

I have updated the install instructions accordingly. Thanks for pointing it out and I apologize for the late response.

Definately the best hack ever made in the entire history of vBulletin. So simple, yet I don't know how I could have possibly survived without it. My people and I thank you, you, the man they call Yarub.

Awesome! I've been running an Ikonboard for years and they have always done this. I'm converting to vBulletin and I immediately noticed this was missing. Now it's back!

Cheers.

Yeah. I'm really surprised it's not vBulletin standard. Guess that's what keeps vBorg goin, ey? =P Glad you like it.

This is a great hack, but how would you code it to get to the forum page? When I click on it, it takes me to my vbadvanced page.

For example, how would I code the breadcrumb it I wanted it to direct it here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/index.php

thanks.

This pulls the information set in your adminCP where it asks for the forum home link. If you're able to give me a link to your website so that I could see what you mean, that might help a little bit. Otherwise, I'm not really sure how you would fix that. =\

<!-- / MININAV -->


I love this, but can someone please tell me how to make the navbar in the table have white text instead of the current default?
