The separator option accepts HTML, so I’d wrap it in span tags with a specific class specified then use CSS style against that. For example use:
>

Hi John,

I was would like to style just the symbol between each page of the breadcrumb navigation. Can you suggest a way for me to do that?

Blog > Code > Breadcrumb NavXT > Documentation
(like the little arrows above)

Thanks.

Thank you for your reply!
If I make custom taxonomies of them will they still be able to be displayed like I display them now?
check my website : http://www.militaryscalemodelling.com
I made a list in the left sidebar, because it is important that people can navigate to them.
Can I add those custom taxonomies in that list?

thanks!

I would suggest taking advantage of WordPress’ custom taxonomies. Use a custom taxonomy for scale (called scale), and one for your countries. Then only have the post a member of Armour kits (it will automatically be a member of the parent category of Armor kits).

Breadcrumb NavXT works on a very predictable mechanism of choosing the first category hierarchy it can find when instructed to use categories as the taxonomy type. It is the only easy way I can implement it. In the future there may be an supplemental plugin to support http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hikari-category-permalink/ which should help you do what you want to do. However, that is a ways of, even if that work was commissioned, I can’t start anything until mid May.

Dear John,

thank for the great plugin.
But I need some more help with it.
I assign multiple parent categories to posts.
Your plugin seems to choose one randomly, and not display the other ones?
example. the post is assigned with those categories :
- 1/35 (child category of the parent “scale” )
- Finished Models (parent)
- Armour kits (child of “finished models”)
- United States (child of “Countries”)

In this case the breadcrumb of the post is : Home > Scale > 1/35
but I want it to be: Home > Finished Models > Armour Kits

Spent hours on it already but cant seem to find a solution…..
I hope you can help me.

Boris

Auch07,

The breadcrumb trail for the front page will only show the name of the front page, and should show up using the default settings as long as you placed the calling code in the correct location/file. This is assuming you are using the default calling code and that you are not wrapping it with something that checks is_frontpage().

Anyone know how I can go about having the breadcrumb show on the frontpage? I am using a static frontpage called frontpage which shows how I would like on all other pages except for the front.

Hello John,

When I add .breadcrumbs CSS class to (default Twenty Eleven theme) style.css breadcrumbs links stop working. They show in page but dont linking.

But then i delete this class from style.css, breadcrumbs links work again perfect.

p.s. Thank for great plugin. Plugins works perfect.

Hi John,

i know, sounds strange, I’m using plugin “widget logic” so when you go to the main drop down menu (it contains 10 musical genres) and select for example rock category, under the drop down menu there are tags (punk rock, progressive rock etc…) its just too many subcategories to display them at the same time so i decided to use tags for that. I hope it makes some sense
