As part of my goals last week, I was working heavily on Breadcrumb NavXT’s custom post type support (after I finished up replacing my desktop’s motherboard with a more stable one). This work is ready for testing. So far, it has passed my development test cases and is ready for end user testing.
The implementation in the SVN trunk has one flaw. It doesn’t handle the “hierarchy flip” situation, where a post hierarchy can terminate with a post that is flat (e.g. it uses taxonomies to be located, not a post hierarchy). One standard example of this “hierarchy flip” is attachments to posts. They are hierarchical, but the parent post is not. Currently, this is handled using an “exception” for attachments. A proper solution would check and continue until it gets to the very top. However, this would impact performance, and is unnecessary for most sites (I need feedback on this, if it is an issue, I will provide support).
It looks like the 3.6 release will be moved up to late July, from August. I plan on having it ready for the translation team by July 14th. It looks like I’ll punt the multisite support extensions to the 3.7 release this fall.
