Breadcrumbs on the Product Page

[classicclothing]

I have breadcrumbs setup like this:-
Section Page > Sub Section Page > Sub Section Page

I want to add breadcrumbs to the Product Page like this:-

Section Page > Sub Section Page > Sub Section Page > Product Page

How is the done?

Thanks

It does that as standard, can you expand a little on what you mean, what are you getting and what do you want instead, perhaps a URL to explain it better?

The breadcrumbs I use at the moment is shown here
http://www.classicclothingshop.co.uk...s-Elderly.html
I want the breadcrumbs to go up-to the product page - at the moment there is no breadcrumb on the product page.

Something similar to this:-
http://www.anythinglefthanded.co.uk/...soft_grip.html

Breadcrumbs are currently setup like this:-http://www.classicclothingshop.co.uk/elderly-clothing/Long-Sleeve-Dresses-Elderly.html

If you click on a product http://www.classicclothingshop.co.uk...Dress-514.html there are no breadcrumbs. I want to add breadcrumbs up to and including the product page.

I added the variable ParentSectionListTop on to the product page but it only listed the Section pages in the breadcrumbs.

I want something similar to http://www.anythinglefthanded.co.uk/...soft_grip.html

It looks to me as if you are using the extended info page for the product page in which case make sure you have ParentSectionListTop in the extended info page design.

I concur with Duncan, you need to copy the format of the BC trail from normal pages into the extended info pages.

Thanks for your replies.

I have added the ParentSectionListTop in the extended info page design and now on each product page (which is the extended info page) there are breadcrumbs.

Two things remaining:-
(1) there is no hyperlink on the last bread crumb "Long Sleeve Dresses" http://www.classicclothingshop.co.uk...Dress-514.html

(2) there isn't a breadcrumb for the actual product page

The parent section list only lists sections, you are trying to extend it to an extended info page which has the product page as its parent. You will need to modify the code.

Inside the layout 'Compact Parent Section List'

1. open the layout ' Compact This section Name'
replace

<actinic:variable name="SectionName"/>

with

<a href="<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsLoginPageSuppressed%22%20%2f%3e%20AND%0d%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22UnregCustomersAreNotAllowed%22%20%2f%3e" ><actinic:variable name="SectionPageName" /></actinic:block><actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsLoginPageSuppressed%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29%20OR%0d%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22UnregCustomersAreNotAllowed%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29" ><actinic:variable name="SectionURL" /></actinic:block>" target="_self" class="link_breadcrumbs"><actinic:variable name="SectionName"/></a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;

click apply and move back up to the 'Compact Parent Section List' layout.

2/ add the actinic variable

<actinic:variable name="ExtendedInfoPageEncoded" />

after the layout 'Compact This Section Name'

Thanks for the help guys. It worked!

classicclothing, it looks like I'm following in your footsteps!

malbro, I don't understand what you're referring to. I'm getting mixed up with all the stuff in the design library.

OK, I think I muddled through and made it work...thanks.
