Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.1

This is the first bug fix release for the 3.4 branch of Breadcrumb NavXT. Those with PHP short tags disabled should no longer get the unexpected $end on line 1567 in breadcrumb_navxt_admin.php error. Using the paged option will no longer cause a WP_Error to string conversion error. Finally, flat taxonomies leading up to a post will become linked again. Hopefully this covers all of the bugs in Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0, if you are still experiencing problems with 3.4.1, leave a comment below in the comments section.

You can grab the latest version of Breadcrumb NavXT from the Breadcrumb NavXT page.

An Unexpect End Error

Ok, so a few of you have reported a PHP error involving an unexpected $end in breadcrumb_navxt_admin.php on line 1567. After some searching and thinking, the cause was found. Line 1248 of breadcrumb_navxt_admin.php has an improper opening tag (<? instead of <?php). For some reason only Windows based PHP installations were catching this. None-the-less, this has been fixed in the SVN trunk and a bug fix release, 3.4.1, will be made next week.

As one has not been able to reproduce this error on either of one’s testbeds, feedback from those who had this error is essential to ensuring that it is fixed. If you experience the error with Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0, please try the SVN trunk and see if it is resolved and report back in the comments section of this post.

Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0

Holy custom taxonomies batman! With Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0 support for taxonomies was rewritten for support of WordPress’ custom taxonomies for taxonomy archives and posts. Additionally, dates may be used as the taxonomy in the breadcrumb trail for posts now. Finally, translations in Italian are now available thanks to Luca Camellini.

Where Has the Time Gone

Ok, so it has been a few weeks since the last post, and even longer since Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0 was supposed to be released. That said, last Saturday the translators were notified that the SVN trunk was ready for translation updates. At the moment, all but two of the translations are ready to go. Once those are updated, Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0 will be released.

Other than the release of Breadcrumb NavXT 3.4.0, one will more or less not exist until the 23rd (final exams). So, don’t fret if response times to questions extend past the normal sub 24 hour range.
