Breadcrumbs and Categories Problem- flyout menus

G'day,

I'm having a problem with Categories not appearing in most breadcrumbs on my site and can't work out how to fix the problem.

For example, on the page http://www.scubadoctor.com.au/diveshop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1626 the breadcrumbs appear as: Oxygen Equipment :: Oxygen Adaptors :: Male Bullnose Adaptor to Female DIN 200 or 300 Bar
That is, the category and sub-category are included.

But on the page http://www.scubadoctor.com.au/diveshop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=155&products_id=1260 the breadcrumbs appears as: Gas Delivery Systems :: Pocket Mask-Resuscitation
That is, the category "Oxygen Equipment" is missing.

On most product pages the Category goes missing from the breadcrumbs.

Can someone please provide an answer for this behavour, or at least point me as to where to look?

Best Regards, Lloyd Borrett.

Re: Breadcrumbs and Categories Problem- flyout menus

Without looking at how you have these created I can only surmise that you are cross linking or some other thing as looking at a correct type of listing for what you state is broke all is there - -

http://www.scubadoctor.com.au/diveshop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1260

index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1260
versus what you have
index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=155&products_id=1260

Re: Breadcrumbs and Categories Problem- flyout menus

Thanks kobra,

I think I've got a better handle on the problem. It seems if I navigate to the product using the CSS Flyout menu, the full cPath value isn't generated. Seems like it might be a bug in that module. Now I just have to work out where.

Best Regards, Lloyd Borrett.

Re: Breadcrumbs and Categories Problem- flyout menus

I've found a suggested fix for this issue at http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=447333&postcount=165

It seems to be working.

This fix should be included in an updated version of the module.

Re: Breadcrumbs and Categories Problem- flyout menus

Good to hear you located a fix
I glossed over the fact that you had the flyout menus altogether
