Devbobo: **YOUR** Breadcrumb hack stopped working!

[DrDavid]

I was happily using this:

YE.onContentReady('breadcrumb', function() {
for (var i in this.childNodes) {
if (this.childNodes[i].tagName == "A") {
this.childNodes[i].href="/galleries";
break;
}
}
});
To modify my breadcrumbs.. But, today I noticed it stopped working while inside a gallery. It works from the list of galleries/categories/sub-categories, but not while IN a gallery.. Odd..

Doesn't work here: http://www.wolfsnap.com/gallery/4281592_m9Cnd

DOES work here:
http://www.wolfsnap.com/Horsethief%20Canyon%20Little%20League
and here:
http://www.wolfsnap.com/Horsethief%20Canyon%20Little%20League/455819

What happened? :cry

Moved to customizing forum.

I'm recommending against this, and I removed it from the advanced faq a couple weeks ago.

It messes with the full screen slideshow button, as well.

[DrDavid]

It was working fine for me! I noticed today that it wasn't working right :(

Doesn't affect the slideshow for me..?

For those who use a 2nd homepage, this hack is really important IMHO.

I'm still using your old hack and it works. :ivar That hack is the best thing since the French baguette.

I'm still using your old hack and it works. :ivar That hack is the best thing since the French baguette.Can you post the old hack you're using? -- Just looked on your site. Doesn't work..

[Erick L]

It still works for me, at least after the page loads (I'm on dial-up today, it takes forever) I don't use it on every pages, only some text pages. If you go on any page that is linked here...

http://borealphoto.smugmug.com/gallery/4365732_gQBD8

... the breadcrumb on those text pages should link back to it.

Here's the code (I got it from you):

function ModifyText () {
var objElement = document.getElementById("breadcrumb")
if (objElement != null) {
var str = new String(objElement.innerHTML);
str = str.replace('/Articles"', '/gallery/4365732_gQBD8"');
objElement.innerHTML = str;
str = str.replace('/Photo"', '/gallery/4441983_g8EUF"');
objElement.innerHTML = str;
str = str.replace('/Maps"', '/gallery/4556816_H8q6R"');
objElement.innerHTML = str;
}
}

A little side question, when you click on the link, do you get a French or English page? Thanks.

Hm, I use it everywhere.. That hack stopped working for me when they made the slideshow flash based.. Maybe I'll revisit it.

English is what I see.

Odd.. it is working.. I thought it was dead.. argh..

[Erick L]

Just a clarification, I don't use it to change the breadcrumb from .com/ to .com/galleries but to change /Articles to /gallery/gallery_number.

[Erick L]

Odd.. it is working.. I thought it was dead.. argh..

"Wolf Snap Photography (http://www.wolfsnap.com/)" on the breadcrumb still leads to http://www.wolfsnap.com/ for me while inside a gallery.

EDIT: Never mind, I thought your current hack started working again.

That is the reason why we won't recommend it anymore. The slideshow button lives in a div in the breadcrumb.

But devbobo's version works (worked) great. Just stopped (that I noticed) today... It *was* working (and he posted it) *after* the slideshow change.

I'm really sorry :( this is a case where I just can't help you, I wish I could!

[DrDavid]

I'm really sorry :( this is a case where I just can't help you, I wish I could!A big help would be if you could make sure devbobo sees the thread and checks it out :thumb

But, I'm thinking something was changed in the last few days maybe... I'm sure there's a fix for it!

There was a change. Here's a fix.. It's not pretty, but it does work :)

YE.onContentReady('breadcrumb', function() {
for (var i in this.childNodes) {
if (this.childNodes[i].tagName == "A") {
this.childNodes[i].href="/galleries";
break;
}
}
});
YE.onContentReady('breadCrumbTrail', function() {
for (var i in this.childNodes) {
if (this.childNodes[i].tagName == "A") {
this.childNodes[i].href="/galleries";
break;
}
}
});


A new div, breadcrumbtrail was added in the gallery view. You need the entire thing above, and it works.

Is this a bug that breadcrumbtrail and breadcrumb aren't consistently applied through the site?
