outputting faq breadcrumb

Hi there,

thats something you would need to ask the FAQ plugin author - currently that breadcrumb is displayed within the Content of the page. They may have a filter or function that will allow it to be hooked elsewhere.

Ok, what specifically do I need to ask of them (sorry I'm not familiar with the technical details of how this works)

Ask them if:

a) there is a filter to disable the breadcrumbs within the_content
b) if there is callback function we can Hook into our theme templates to display the breadcrumbs outside of the content.

Hi David,

They replied with a No for (a), but for (b)...

Yes, use the follow method:
com\cminds\cmfaq\plugin\classes\Frontend::the_breadcrumb();
Should be called after global $post is set

Would you be able to show me what I need?
Thanks for your help so far

Regards

Hi Paul,

We can easily place the same breadcrumb CM Faq uses using a Hook Element.

Add this PHP snippet on a hook element and set the hook element to Execute PHP:

<?php 
CMFAQ_Frontend::the_breadcrumb();
?>

Set the hook to generate_after_header and set the display rule to Faq Questions - Al faq questions.

But the problem is we can't remove the one added within the content because it is hard coded to the plugin's post.php file.

If you don't mind hiding it instead of completely removing it, we can hide it with CSS.

Try this:

.entry-content .cmfaq-breadcrumb {
    display: none;
}

ok, thanks, however, I tried that and it threw an error...

Might be best to ask the plugin author how to call that method outside of its plugin.

Hi,

The plugin supplier told me to modify the call with the full class path and it worked.

Thanks

Glad to hear that!
