Phoca VirtueMart Category Module shows wrong breadcrumbs

Post by michellezum »

I'm not entirely sure if this is where the problem is coming from, but my breadcrumb path is incorrect. Example:

Breadcrumb says:
Home > Front page > TAPE > Sony #SO-LTO1

Should be:
Home > Flash Memory > 8GB > Corsair #CO-CMFPLA8GB

I'm still learning, but from what I've read, this could be a menu assignment problem. I think Joomla builds a breadcrumb based on links it finds in the menu, but since Virtuemart uses its own categories (not joomla categories), it can't build the correct breadcrumb.

I messed around with the module a bit, but the settings we're using are not typical. We've got the top parent category ID as "0", which in our case lists all the categories. When I tell the module to list "All Categories", the list is empty.

Ideas, anyone?

Hi, the module has no dependency to breadcrumbs, it just displays the categories from VM and get the links from VM (created by menu link of VM) :idea:
