Breadcrumb for Category / File view

Post by mjriding »

I've become increasingly frustrated. I've been using Phoca download for some time now and its working great except when a user requests a file for which they need to login.

After the login the user is redirected to a category list of files where they need to select the file they originally requested. I would prefer it redirect directly to the file they requested or better yet, I would like it to redirect back to the original page so the user can click the file again.

It would even be acceptable if perhaps we could have a breadcrumb display for the category ... for example, displaying the category tree up through and including the selected file category. Something like: Files | Languages | English | where the user can easily move through the file selections.

Anyway, if there's no solution I would be interested in knowing which files would be best to modify as I must get this working. I've read post after post for similar requests but no one has been able to identify exactly where/when I can perhaps construct a breadcrumb or my own redirect.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi, regarding login I cannot give you any clue information as login is done by Joomla! itself :-(

breadcrumbs - see: components/com_phocadownload/views/category/view.html.php - method: _prepareDocument() ... there you can customize the breadcrumbs values (the same for categories of file view)
