Hi,

I discovered the very useful file breadcrumb.php in theme's folder "framework" -> "helper-functions".

But no breadcrumbs are shown at all in frontend of the theme.

Then I tried the plugin "Yoast Breadcrumbs", but it has no effect in this theme: no breadcrumb is shown at all.

Where can I enable this function?

Thanks.

the theme doesnt use the breadcrumbs function, its just part of my personal framework ;)

you can add this within php brackets to call the breadcrumb but you will need to add styling yourself ;)

if(class_exists('kclass_breadcrumb')){ $bc = new kclass_breadcrumb; }

Thanks, and where, in which file must I put this code?

What do you mean with "php brackets"? The (German) "Größer-/Kleiner-Zeichen"?
And which of these many brackes of your code above need to be put in this "php brackets"?
Sorry, but I have nearly no idea of PHP :-(

PHP brackets look like this:

<?php ?>

So with the breadcrumb code, it would look like this:

<?php if(class_exists('kclass_breadcrumb')){ $bc = new kclass_breadcrumb; } ?>

There are a few files you can add this to, for individual posts it's single.php / for individual pages it's page.php / for archive (category) pages it's archive.php. Where you want to place the code is up to you, it needs to be outside the loop:

if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();

otherwise it would show up for every individual entry (not a problem on page.php or single.php as only 1 article is displayed but in archive.php you'd end up with problems).
