No crumb trail

Hi,

Having a crumb trail would greatly ease navigation within the forum, especially once you're deep into a thread.

Driving me nuts as well, all modern forums have a breadcrum trail.

Change to the other theme. Lose the prettiness but gain useful features

im getting this too, but only in firefox?

Hi there!

While I really like the new forums I notice the absence of a breadcrumb. When you are browsing a thread there is no way to get back to the topic list other than the browser's back button. A good navigation should never rely on such browser functions. And if I browsed all the way through the pages of a long thread I'd have to hit the back button numerous times..

So I am forced to got to the "Forum" link in the main navigation and / or use multiple tabs which is not just inconvenient, but also a performance issue of you think of actual pi users...

A breadcrumb is pretty much standard these days and should be on top and maybe as well on the bottom of a page.

For now, use the Prosilver theme instead.

Ah, good idea, thx! I didn't realize I can change the theme.

For now, use the Prosilver theme instead.

*sigh* Is this going to continue be the answer to all forum-glitch reports/complaints, or are there updates/tweaks to the raspite theme planned?
This is in no way meant as a dig at all the hard work that's been put into the raspite theme, I'm still using it myself. It would just be nice to see a few of these last minor niggles fixed (but again, I don't know how much hard work that would be).

I've been missing breadcrumbs in the forum, anyone else feeling the same? It's kinda messy to navigate like this...

anyone else feeling the same?

Ah, just noticed my thread got merged... lol

It would be very useful for navigation around the forum if there were "breadcrumbs" at the top and bottom of every page. They typically take the form of:

Forum Name > Section > Subforum > (additional subforum)

For example when viewing this post you might see:

Raspi Forum > Raspberry Pi Foundation > Feedback and Requests

Each being a link. So that it's easy within any page to go up the chain to the subforum you are in, or a higher subforum, or to the section the subforum is in, or to the top index for the forum. As this forum evolves it is ending up with many layers of subforums in subforums in sections. Currently there is only the button to see the current subforum and the link to the board index. Navigation to the other levels is not provided at the moment.

Often breadcrumbs are an optional part of the template being used by the forum software (simply check a box in the template setup), and if not then it is usually quite easy to copy a line or two of code from a different template that includes breadcrumbs and paste it into the template pages that are being used.

Having them at both the top and bottom of pages is also useful so you can navigate away from the page from either place.

Very much needed.

Needed to top of the page, usually breadcrumbs are my main navigation on a forum back to the thread list.

+1 Having no way to back up is really irritating.

+1 from me - since this is phpBB it is probably just a template update.
