Does anybody use this plugin? Having a real issue with it displaying an incorrect path/page name!!!

What's wrong with the normal Wordpress breadcrumbs - what does NavXT do that the default Wordpress crumbs don't?

For starters, it makes itself obvious in the plugins that it's available - I didn't even know there was a 'built-in' WP one. ;z

Hmm, just tried a different breadcrumb plugin and am getting the same end result.

 

What's happening is this; I have two test posts set up on my blog homepage and when clicked, the breadcrumb trail always shows the path to the first post.

 

The actual link works; as in it takes me to the correct post, just the breadcrumb trail is incorrect.

 

Not sure what code I need to post but here is the code to my index.php

<?php get_header(); ?>

 <? if(have_posts()): ?>
 <? while(have_posts()): ?>
   <? the_post() ?>
<div class="blog-thumbnail"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</a></div>
   <div class="blog-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title('<h2 class="blog-h2">', '</h2>'); ?></a></div>
   <p><? the_time('F j, Y') ?> at <? the_time(); ?> by <? the_author_link(); ?></p>
   <p><? the_content("Continue reading..."); ?></p>
   <p><span class="blog-cat">Posted in:</span> <? the_category(', '); ?> <span class="blog-tag">Tagged in:</span> <? the_tags(''); ?> <span class="blog-comments">Comments:</span> <? comments_popup_link('No Comments. Leave a reply?', '1 Comments', '% Comments', '', 'Comments disabled'); ?></p>
<div class="post-tramline"></div><!-- /.post-tramline -->
<? endwhile; ?>
<? endif; ?>
   </div><!-- /#main-content-left -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

 

And here is the header (with the breadcrumb trail code)

In fact, I'd argue that breadcrumbs are pointless and even negative on the majority of wordpress sites - most wordpress sites have 2 or 3 depths at most.

Mine are certainly pointless at the moment - as they wont work properly!

Hmm, i don't think it's a breadcrumb issue, seems like an issue with the way the posts are displayed on the main blog page. Anybody take a look at this please?

I wouldnt use breadcrumbs unless the site had atleast 3/4 depths

Certain areas will have a depth of 3
