Ektron provides 2 kinds of breadcrumbs.
Since you determine the organization of a sitemap breadcrumb, you must define the trail in the Workarea. To do that, see Creating Sitemap Breadcrumbs. To learn how to place a sitemap breadcrumb on a template, see FolderBreadcrumbserver controla server control uses API language to interact with the CMS and Framework UI to display the output. A server control can be dragged and dropped onto a Web form and then modified..
A history breadcrumb requires no setup in the Workarea. To place a history breadcrumb on a Web page, see BreadCrumb server control.
The following topics explain how to create and manage Sitemap Breadcrumbs in the Workarea.
A folder can inherit a sitemap breadcrumb path from its parent, or you can break inheritance and assign it a unique path. Use the Folder Properties screen Breadcrumb tab’s Inherit Parent Configuration checkbox to retain or break inheritance.
Prerequisite
Determine which topics should appear on a Sitemap Breadcrumb trail for content in a folder. A trail typically consists of topics that introduce a folder's content, but you can create any sequence that makes sense. For example, on a university website, content that describes the women's swimming team has this trail: Home > Athletics > Women's Athletics > Swimming.
