Breadcrumb Implementation

I think I've found the problem. I've reuploaded squadronOperations.php and made the following changes to line 180:
<ul>
<?php foreach ($categoryRecords as $categoryRecord): ?>
<?php if ($categoryRecord['_isSelected']): ?>
<li><?php echo $categoryRecord['breadcrumb'] ; ?></li>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>Let me know if this works for you.
Thanks!

I took a look at the code. Can you tell me where $categoryRecords is being defined? It doesn't seem to be on the page.
What seems to be happening here is that there are no records inside $categoryRecords where "_isSelected" is getting set to true. Also, since squadronOperations.php appears to be a detail page for a single record section, it's unclear how breadcrumbs should work. Can you give an example of what breadcrumbs should look like on this page?
Thanks

You can see the website at http://qc.aircadetleagueofcanada.ca/index.php
The menu structure is defined in CMSB and each menu is assigned to a file or a uri.
If you wish, I can provide you access to cmsb

Sure. What you can do is use the $selectedCategory variable to output your breadcrumbs.
for example:
<?php echo @$selectedCategory['breadcrumbs'];?>Hope this helps

The issue here is that on your page you don't have a currently selected category. If you don't explicitly set which record you want as the selected category by using the "selectedCategoryNum" option in getCategories, the function defaults to the last record number in the URL string. In your example, there are no numbers in the URL, so $selectedCategory will always be empty. This also means that the "_isSelected" fields of your category records will always be 0.
When you are on that page, what category would you expect to see selected?
Hope this helps

It should look like this for a 3rd level page:
About the League > Chairperson's Message > Chairperson's Biography

So, are you trying to output all categories, and then show the breadcrumb for a selected category? The issue you're having right now is that no categories are being selected.

Re: [Jason] Breadcrumb Implementation
Does that make sense? And how do I fix it?
