Blog link for non-static blog page

  • How do I manually put the blog link back into the breadcrumb trail when I’m using a non-static blog page? Meaning that under my Reading settings, I don’t have a blog page selected.

    Here’s my complete hack job of a solution that basically switches the last two elements:

    add_action('bcn_after_fill', 'my_static_breadcrumb_adder');
function my_static_breadcrumb_adder($trail)
{
if ( is_single() ) {
    $trail->add(new bcn_breadcrumb('Blog', NULL, array('blog'), '/blog'));
    $bccount = count($trail->breadcrumbs);
    $tempspot = $trail->breadcrumbs[$bccount - 2]; 
    $trail->breadcrumbs[$bccount - 2] = $trail->breadcrumbs[$bccount - 1];
    $trail->breadcrumbs[$bccount - 1] = $tempspot;
}
}

    If anyone has a better idea, I’m open to it.

    Just a few notes on this. Rather than calling bcn_breadcrumb_trail::add(), normally I would manually instantiate a new bcn_breadcrumb object. Then inject it into the correct spot into bcn_breadcrumb_trail::breadcrumbs using the PHP array_splice() function. That saves you from having to juggle around entities in the bcn_breadcrumb_trail::breadcrumbs array.

    Thanks, John. Would you mind posting sample code? I tried array_splice based on something I found on Stack Overflow and it kept throwing errors.
