Breadcrumb Mode

[JDeAz]

Hi !

I have a problem with the breadcrumb-mode in Alfresco 5.2 and Alfresco 6.2.
When I search for a file with the advanced search and then click on the file founded, the breadcrumb path begins within the repository.

For example, my file is in the space "My files"  within the folder named "Test" :
  - When I search for my file from the explorer, the breadcrumb is the following : My files > Test
  - When I search for my file from the advanced search and then click on it, the breadcrumb is the following : Repository > User Spaces > MySpace > Test

The behaviour I want to have is the first one.

I have found a possible solution here (in the last parapgraph) : https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-hub/web-client-customisation-faq/ba-p/289689#w...
But changing the breadcrumb-mode into location mode doesn't works.

Does someone have the solution, please ?

You seem to be trying to update the config that no longer exists. The documentation is marked as obslete.

"Explorer was an app (used to be accessed at /alfresco context) is no longer available version ACS 5.x (5.1, 5.2 etc.) onwards as far as i can recall."

I am assuming you mean Share "DocumentLibrary", "SharedFiles" etc. when you say explorer and not the obselete app.

When in comes to Share, the behavior you are seeing is default from what i could recall and there is no config to handle just the breadcrumb stuff. The path is contextual i.e. site, shared, etc. and link open the item based on the context. Just observe the URLs when you open the items.

In Share, you can however extend and customize the "/alfresco/site-webscripts/org/alfresco/components/node-details/node-header" webscript and alter the paths in order to show only required path. Note that, you would still need to consider the context and make sure nothing breaks.
