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

This is great, thanks.

Now I need to figure out how to modify the actual style of the breadcrumbs, by default it seems so hard to notice.

I had several member requests on my forum to add this back, as I had done with 3.8. I tried to do this by hand and couldn't get anything but the Home link. Thanks for doing this; works like a champ!

I just installed this mod and now I am getting one uncached template.

navbar_breadcrumbs (1)

How do I cache it?

Thanks!

How do I make it so that there is one ABOVE Quick Reply and one BELOW too?

I would guess you would have to do the find/replace line twice - once for each place - or make it into any array and do the find/replace. I've never tried that though.

Lynne, how come <center><div id="thread_info" class="thread_info"></center> wont work? Why can't I center it?

[Lynne]

<center> is a deprecated tag. You should be using text-align:center if you are trying to center text.
