Breadcrumb NavXT 4.4.0

Holy API improvements Batman! As with 4.3.0, this release contains several smaller improvements rather than a single, or handful of ‘block buster’ new features. The largest set of these improvements is the addition, and improvement of several filters within Breadcrumb NavXT.

Of the new filters, bcn_template_tags has one of the larger impacts. It allows the addition of custom breadcrumb template tags. Other new filters include bcn_allowed_html, bcn_breadcrumb_template, and bcn_breadcrumb_url. For more information on these filters, please checkout the Breadcrumb NavXT Filters section of the documentation.

Additionally, the set of valid HTML for breadcrumb templates was revised and expanded. The basic set should now include a, img, span, h1, and h2 HTML tags. Added valid properties include:

  • aria-hidden
  • data-icon
  • itemprop
  • itemscope
  • itemtype

With the bcn_allowed_html filter the list of valid HTML tags and associated properties can be expanded upon without modification of the plugin.
