Question Joomla breadcrumbs do not show Kunena

The built-in Joomla module Breadcrumbs does not show the Kunena forum.

I made a menu item directly to the forum. On any other page, the breadcrumbs module shows page name or extension name. Like so: home > news or home > agenda

With Kunena, nothing is displayed after 'home'.

Is this a general Joomla problem, or could this be a setting within Kunena?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Kunena 1.5 does not support breadcrumbs. They have been added into Kunena 1.6, but they will still need some work..

I found some info on the Web about this which makes it look pretty easy! Here it is. Is this useful?

Let's say that we've landed on a Product Index page. Then:

global $mainframe;
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
// get the pathway object we want to modify
$pathway =& $app->getPathway();
// add the text, but no link
$pathway->addItem('Products');

We would see this as our breadcrumb:

Home > Products
("Home" is linked, "Products" is not)

Now suppose the user clicks a product "The Breadslic0r 3000". As we go to that page, we expect products to be clickable and for "The Breadslic0r 3000" to show up in the breadcrumbs as the current item:

global $mainframe;
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
$pathway =& $app->getPathway();
$pathway->addItem('Products', 'index.php?option=com_products&task=products');
$pathway->addItem('The Breadslic0r 3000'); // add w/ no link

Output:

Home > Products > The Breadslic0r 3000
(Note: "Home" and "Products" are both linked, "The Breadslic0r 3000" is not)

You can put links into all items: last link just won't show up..

I've seen back-and-forth debate on whether the last link should show up. Personally I agree with you, the last item should be unlinked text with the title of the current page. But whichever way it's done, some people will say it should be the other way.

Hi. I read another forum post stating that as of K 1.6, integration with Joomla breadcrumbs would be possible. Is this true? If so, how is this enabled? If not, are there any 3rd party extensions out there that could do this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions-

Where was that? I can't comment on this unless we understand what we're discussing. Thanks.

Thank you for showing us this topic, resurrected from 2 years ago. I don't know the current situation. Matias' reply might have been "it's-a-good-idea-if-we-have-the-time-to-implement-it" but I don't know whether the kite got off the ground.

I'm merging this question of yours with the original topic but I can't tell you anything more than what I've written.

Since then Kunena 1.6 has been renamed to Kunena 2.0. And yes, it uses Joomla breadcrumbs.
