Duplicate "Home" in Breadcrumb

Post by cnymike »

I just did a new installation of cmsms 1.0.2

Am using the default template "Top simple navigation + left subnavigation + 1 column"

I've got a "Home" page designated as "1" in the Current Pages screen in admin and it is on my horizontal menu. I've also got a "Page A" on my left subnavigation menu and it is designated as as "1.1" in the Current Pages screen. In other words, Page A is a submenu item to the Home page.

When I view the Home page, the breadcrumb says, "You are here: Home"
When I view Page A, the breadcrumb says, "You are here: Home » Home » Page A"

Why is the word "Home" duplicated in the breadcrumb?

It's liable to be set in the template as root or just as root=home... I'd look in the template to see how it's set...

Mark,
That may be the situation, but what should I do to rectify it? Just get rid of "root=home" in the template?

This is the default breadcrumb for that template... so yes if you are getting unwanted behavior delete the offending part...

{breadcrumbs starttext='You are here' root='Home' delimiter='»'}
