Where are the breadcrumbs?

  • Where are the breadcrumbs?

    • I'm using Gantry 5 for Wordpress, and for the life of me, I can't make any breadcrumbs appear. I see a particle on the base outline, but nothing appears. Any suggestions?

    • Sorta depends if you installed Gantry 5.2.0+ yet... which you should always keep Gantry updated... clearing your cache after each upgrade is important as well... Where in the Base Outline are you looking? Layout Manager or the Settings?

    • Thanks for the response.

      I am using Gantry 5.2.1 I'm all updated. The site is in development. I'm currently trying to use a third-party breadcrumbs plugin with poor results. I saw that Gantry had its own breadcrumbs, but they never appeared. Now, I can't find the original particle.

    • If you want to use shortcodes in a Widget use a Custom HTML Particle with Process Shortcodes enabled.

      I've set this up for you :)

    • Thanks for your help.

      I'm not happy at all with the way the breadcrumbs are displayed. I'm mostly a Joomla guy, so I'd like to see the breadcrumbs more consistently reflect the content hierarchy than it is currently. If breadcrumbs are not already a built in feature of Gantry, can you recommend a better breadcrumb plugin than the one I'm currently using?

    • Some of our Gantry 4 Themes have custom Gantry Bread Crumb Widgets that you can use... but in Gantry 5 we have not created any Breadcrumb Particles yet.

      I don't have any familiarity with any breadcrumb plugins.

      You can always inspect the code that your plugin is outputting now with Developer Tools and adjust the CSS in the Styles Pane as you see fit... then place that Overriding CSS in the Base Outline's Page Settings Tab > Assets > CSS

      There's lots of otherways to incorporate custom CSS into G5 as well... all documented on docs.gantry.org

      Inspect HTML and CSS in real-time with Developer Tools:
