Hello everyone,

I’d like to know how to change the breadcrumbs on my bbPress installation. On the topics pages, the breadcrumb is something like this:

Home / Topics / *Forum Name* / *Topic Title*

Is there a for it to be like:

Home / Forum Index / *Forum Name* / *Topic Title*

is this just a name change?

if so, add this to your functions file

add_filter( 'bbp_get_breadcrumb', 'change_breadcrumb_text' );

Function change_breadcrumb_text ($trail) {
$trail = str_replace ('Topics','Forum Index',$trail) ;
return $trail ;
}

Hi @robin-w

Thanks for responding, but it’s not really a name change. Kindly see this link
the breadcrumbs for that is Home | Topics | News & Announcements | Welcome to Nurseslabs and our forums! how come it points to Topics rather than the forum’s homepage?

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 9 months ago]

hmmm… something is changing that

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

common issue with yoast breadcrumbs.

/**
 * Filter to call default bbPress breadcrumbs
 */
add_filter( 'bbp_get_breadcrumb', 'myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb', 1, 3 );
function myfix_bbp_get_breadcrumb($trail, $crumbs, $r){
        // This will remove wordpress-seo filter to disable bbPress breadcrums by default
        remove_all_filters("bbp_get_breadcrumb",10);
        return $trail;
}

use this to enable bbPress breadcrumbs

@robin-w I did deactivate the plugins and found out it was Yoast’s breadcrumbs causing this.

@Robkk apologies but where would I put this code? Sorry, I’m a bit new to coding. Found it!

Thanks for all your help.

Hello

i have the same problem, i don’t understand what you do, please help me.

where is the functions file ?

what is the code that you modify ?

[@robkk Moderator 9 years, 3 months ago]

its in your child theme if you created one. you can also just use the functionality plugin too.
