Bottom Forum Navigation breadcrumbs

This requires all of 2 template edits

First, open 'FORUMDISPLAY', in the last few lines, find

Code:

$footer

Directly above that, add this

Code:

<table class="tborder" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" border="0" width="100%">

<tr>

<td class="alt2"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb] &gt;<strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>

</tr>

</table>

Then open up 'SHOWTHREAD', again find

Code:

$footer

And add above it

Code:

<table class="tborder" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" border="0" width="100%">

<tr>

<td class="alt2"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb] &gt;<strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>

</tr>

</table>

If your navigation seems squashed against things, add a <br /> tag above opening <table> tag and/or below the </table> tag.

Viola! Bottom Forum Navigation for all!

Don't forget to press INSTALL!

Lovely!

Nice, this is better than the one that requires a plugin. :)

Anything that doesn't add plugins and more queries to the system is always better. :)

If you don't want it spanning the entire page:

Personally, I like it across the entire page, but its all a matter of preference. :)

Good stuff, but it sits a bit too low, where would I put this code so it sits above display options in the thread list and above the quick reply within the thread itself?

installed and works great, thanks!!

/me clicks install

This is a useful hack, but what if I want it higher up on the page? Where would I have to move the code?

That would entirely defeat the purpose of the mod. Its meant to be at the bottom for users to not have to scroll back up to navigate the site.

So... how would I move it up the page?

thanks, had requested the same elsewhere too :-)

I took this a step further. I took the treeview type breadcrumb above the navbar and snipped out the login and welcome information.

In the FORMDISPLAY, Look for:

Code:

<!-- / controls below thread list -->



</form>

<br />

Just below that, Add this:

Code:

<!-- breadcrumb info -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tr>

        <td class="alt1" >

                <if condition="is_array($navbits)">

                        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

                        <tr valign="bottom">

                                <td><a href="#" onclick="history.back(1); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_back]" border="0" /></a></td>

                                <td>&nbsp;</td>

                                <td width="100%"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]</td>

                        </tr>

                        <tr>

                                <td class="navbar" style="font-size:10pt; padding-top:1px" colspan="3"><a href="$scriptpath"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reload_this_page]" border="0" /></a> <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>

                        </tr>

                        </table>                        

                <else />

                        <div class="navbar" style="font-size:10pt"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a> <strong>$vboptions[bbtitle]</strong></div>

                </if>

        </td>        

</tr>

</table>

<br />

<!-- / breadcrumb -->

In the SHOWTHREAD, Look for:

Code:

<if condition="$show['inlinemod']">

$spacer_close

</form>

$spacer_open

</if>

<br />

Just below the break, add the same code that you added to FORUMDISPLAY

That wasn't the intension.. IIRC, all this thread was about was to display a breadcrumb at the bottom of the thread. Instead of putting it all on one line I thought it would be nice to have it look like the breadcrumb at the top of the page. So far it's been working fine.

Jim

Works still on 3.7 :)

Where would I put the code if I want to put it just under or over the quick reply box?

above or below the quick reply code ;)

I'm pretty sure it's labeled with something like <--quick reply controls-->

Yeah, I was trying that but it was offsetting the board. I took out the table tags and it seemed to work.

Thanks.
