I have a menu item to an Edocman category. when that item is clicked on, the entire Edocman category chain is published after the menu item in the breadcrumb module. Is there any way to stop this, I want the menu item to be the last item in the breadcrumb not Edocman category.



Everything after the first Layer 1 Muxponders is not wanted.

Hi

The solution is editing the code alitle :

1. Open the file components/com_edocman/views/category/view.html.php

2. Find the code below and remove it (from line 80):
Code:
for ($i = count($parents)-1 ; $i > 0 ; $i--) { $parent = $parents[$i] ; if ($parent->total_children) $pathUrl = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_edocman&view=categories&id='.$parent->id.'&Itemid='.$Itemid); else { if ($parent->category_layout == 'default') $pathUrl = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_edocman&view=category&id='.$parent->id.'&Itemid='.$Itemid); else $pathUrl = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_edocman&view=category&layout='.$parent->category_layout.'&id='.$parent->id.'&Itemid='.$Itemid); } $pathway->addItem($parent->title, $pathUrl); }

I will consider adding a config option for this fix in future release .

The config option is now added to latest download package. Just download latest version, upgrade it to your site. Then go to EDocman -> Configuration, find the config option Fix Breadcrumb issue, set it to Yes. After that, the issue will be sorted. No hack is needed anymore .

Hi, I installed the update but the setting doesn't do anything.
I see the if statement is there but it still doesn't do anything.

Also, when I did the hack I included the line which is just under your if statement.

$pathway->addItem($category->title);

With this line also removed it worked correctly.

Hi

I included this modification in latest version (which just updated few minutes ago). It should work well now (it has some nice improvements to back-end interface (using twitter bootstrap), so maybe you should consider upgrade your site to this latest version.
