I put together some code to implement a real bread crumb trail for BBPress that should support any level of subforums. I’ll open a ticket for the change too, but until it’s in the trunk (hopefully), you can use it by doing the following.

In bb-includes/template-functions.php, just above the // Forum Loop // line, add the following:

(UGH – Why if I put code inside code tags is bbpress insisting on parsing it and tossing in backticks everywhere! To see the code, check this file: http://onthepitch.org/talk/bb-includes/template-functions.txt)

You’ll have to update your template, mainly forum.php and topic.php. Look for the line like this”

<h3 class="bbcrumb"><a>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> &raquo; <?php forum_name(); ?></h3>

and replace it with something like this:

<h3 class="bbcrumb"><?php forum_bread_crumb(); ?></h3>

And it should work for you.

Demo?

Not in production yet – still ironing out various bits, adding stuff that’s missing (oh how I miss AJAX posting), etc. But the breadcrumb stuff works for the forum and topic view.

Here’s the ticket – hopefully the function or some form of it will get added. Possible improvement would be to limit the depth for forums with deep children
