What is the process/code to add breadcrumbs to my template?

Postby dnrbookstore » Wed Jun 09, 2010 10:13 am

Since Shopsite now includes a built-in template with the capability to include breadcrumbs - (Wallpaper Template "...This template is also the first ShopSite built in template to create breadcrumbs at the top of each page." http://shopsite.com/templates/cookbook/ ... aper.shtml) - how do I go about adding this feature to my template?

Thanks in advance!

Try this from the Tips section of the Custom Template Cookbook:

Breadcrumbs

Postby BFChris » Wed Jun 09, 2010 12:08 pm

As Loren notes, due to the static nature of Shopsite pages, even the link he provided will not provide a "true" breadcrumb trail.

There are scripts available online that use PHP to dynamically generate a breadcrumb trail. One of these could be implemented in your Shopsite template if your pages support PHP.

Thanks I appreciate your help. I will look in to both of your suggestions. I hadn't realized that was in the template tips!
