Show Thread Enhancements - Lower Breadcrumbs

This just adds the breadcrumbs to the bottom of the showthread page. I saw this thread over at vb.com and then decided to share it as I wrote it for myself.






Version History:
1.0 2009-12-01: initial release by Lynne at vbulletin.org (pre Beta 5)
1.1 2009-12-04: fixed the issue regarding a single apostrophe in a thread or forum title (Thanks go to BBR-APBT for the fix!) (Beta 5)
1.2 2009-12-12: small template change for new release, RC2 (RC2)
1.3 2009-05-10: added lower breadcrumbs to forumdisplay page (up to 4.0.7)
1.4 2009-10-21: fixed for use in 4.0.8 (4.0.8)


To install:

1. Import product-lynne_lower_breadcrumbs.xml


To uninstall:

1. Uninstall "Lower Breadcrumbs"


Optional:

Added in 1.1: in the plugin, Add Lower Breadcrumbs to SHOWTHREAD template, you will see the following lines:

PHP Code:

// to put it above the Quick Reply box
//$find = '<!-- scripts for quick reply and quick edit -->'; 
// to put it above the Thread Information box
$find = '<div id="thread_info" class="thread_info block">'; 


If you wish to have the Breadcrumbs above the Quick Reply box, then uncomment that line and comment out the one to put it above the Thread Information box, like this:

PHP Code:

// to put it above the Quick Reply box
$find = '<!-- scripts for quick reply and quick edit -->'; 
// to put it above the Thread Information box
//$find = '<div id="thread_info" class="thread_info block">';

Thanks to Alan for instructions to add to that location, see this post - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=230

And again thanks to Alan, if you use microdata on your site and want the breadcrumbs to only show for logged in users, see this post - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=234

I cant seem to get my lower breadcrumb to look exactly like the top. I tried doing it the way on page 10 and it kept adding that image from my style. I need that for the top but not the bottom. Unless I can get it to work with that.

That code for the image is:

<li class="navbithome"><a href="index.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" ><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/navbit-home.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase home}" /></a></li>

Your top and bottom breadcrumbs look pretty much the same to me. You have a custom style and they modified the breadcrumb code. If you want them to be exactly the same, you will need to modify this modification template code the same way that your custom style breadcrumb code was modified. That is not something I can help with.

4.1.8 - work fine

Doesn't quite work from a formatting perspective in my skin. I wish I knew how to tweak it because it's precisely the feature I need

Works well on 4.1.10. Now a little positioning next to the quick navigation... and voila!

Hello. I have a problem with this plugin. When I install it all acceses to sub-forums are blocked. When I try clicking on them to acces the page it's just blocked. Do you have a solution for that? I mention that I use last version of vb.

Thank you.

It's possible that under 4.1.11 doesn't work?

It is working just fine on my default 4.1.11 forum.

Thanks Lynne. I've looked at this many a time and finally got around to installing it today. Works perfectly
