Breadcrumbs Problem

jackm · 2014-07-31 23:13:42

I have 2 web sites. A test site and my 'real' one. Both made with the identical template setting for Pages, Auto Index, Gallery, Stage. Both use Flip, Full-screen for desktop and mobile for the home page.

On the test site, when navigating down the album sets and albums, the "galleries" breadcrumb takes me back to the galleries page. As I think it should.

On the other site the "galleries" breadcrumb takes me back to the home page. I do not know why, or how to correct it.

Thanks,

Jack

there is a setting in the ttg-be Publisher set up to display Home breadcrumb. See if that's been set.

Rod,

I am not sure where that is.

log in to the back end by going to http://yoursite.com/ttg-be/admin/
click on Dashboard> Publisher Admin, then Publisher Settings and Edit Settings

Rod,

OK. I checked the set ups on both sites. The Home breadcrumb are both set not to show.

If I enable to show on my 'real' site it shows and works. But the galleries breadcrumb still takes me back to the home page.

I'm not seeing Home in the breadcrumbs for either site using Firefox and Chrome. Have you cleared browser cache and tried different browsers?

How's the D810 working out?

Sorry. I turned the home breadcrumb on. It worked to take me to the Flip, Full-screen home page. Then I turned it off again because I don't want it to show.

The 'galleries' breadcrumb still takes me back to the home page on real site. On the test site it takes me back to the galleries page, like it should.

The D810 is fantastic. I had a D800, also very good, but the 810 had some, for me, critical upgrades. The biggie is the new highly damped shutter. I can now almost get back to hand holding at 1/focal length speed, and get sharp images. The extra higher stop on ISO is also very nice. FPS up 1, which makes the 810 a great all-rounder now.

Rod,

The 'galleries' breadcrumb takes me back too home screen when the 'home' breadcrumb was on or off (as it is now).

I forgot to mention this behavior is the same for for different browsers, iPhone and iPad.

Oh, I see. It's labeled "Galleries" but it's taking you to the home slide show.
on your test site, the url in the breadcrumbs goes to http://stuffbyjack.com/jacktest/galleries.php

in your regular site, the url goes to: http://stuffbyjack.com/galleries/

there's an index.html file in the galleries/ folder that should redirect to the galleries.php file (it's ../galleries.php) but it's not doing that, instead it redirecting to the home page.

I'm at a loss as to why the two different urls in the breadcrumbs. Hopefully Matt or Ben will be able to take a look soon.

Rod,

Thanks for finding that.

Now hopefully Matt can fix it.

Thanks for you help.

There is a file called gallery.xml that is generated by Pages to tell Publisher where to link to for the 'galleries'. Since the location of 'galleries' is configurable, it's not something Publisher can work out on its own.
If you copy the file http://stuffbyjack.com/jacktest/galleries/gallery.xml to http://stuffbyjack.com/galleries/gallery.xml then that should fix it.

jackm · 2014-08-01 08:19:34

Fixed.

Thanks Ben.

And of course thanks to Rod for helping earlier.

Ben,

Why was this file on one site and not the other? Was it a result of the attempt to fix the bad album set I has after migration?
