Mini Navbar: Breadcrumb at the bottom of a thread · **Released**: 10-14-2005

Description
There's no quick way to jump back to a forum when you've reached the bottom of a thread, so this adds a breadcrumb to the bottom of a thread.

v1.0.4
After snooping around for a little bit on these forums, I found a neat way to avoid template edits. Big thanks to PaulM and his method of doing this ^^.
Now this mod no longer requires a template modification!
I have removed the non-inline display method, so now it will only be "inline"
v1.0.3
Initial vB 3.6.x version

Please click "Install" if you have installed this mod! Thanks!

You might want to cache the template.

Doh, how would I go about that using plugins?

Would I add something like $globaltemplates[] = 'navbar_mini';
at showthread_start?

Not a bad hack, thanks.

I installed the product and I don't see any new navbar down at the bottom, either.

Oops forgot there needs to be another template edit!

Code:

----------------
open SHOWTHREAD:
----------------

+------
| FIND:
+------
	<if condition="$show['pagenav'] OR $show['inlinemod']">
		<td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav
+-----------
| ABOVE ADD:
+-----------
	<td style="align: $stylevar[left]; vertical-align: top;">$navbar_mini</td>
	
-------------------
end template edits
-------------------

Btw for those who have already installed you should reinstall this new .xml because it *should* cache the added template.

Hook: cache_templates

PHP Code:


			if(THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread')
{
  $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('navbar_mini'));
}
