Breadcrumb templates

Template list

Path Description
Silversolutions/Bundle/EshopBundle/Resources/views/pagelayout.html.twig Defines the breadcrumb block, which calls the sub-controller for the breadcrumb generation.
Silversolutions/Bundle/EshopBundle/Resources/views/Breadcrumbs/breadcrumb_list.html.twig Used by all WhiteOctober-based breadcrumb generators to render the generated breadcrumbs elements.

No breadcrumbs displayed

The possible reasons why breadcrumbs might not be displayed:

  • The breadcrumb block of the pagelayout.html.twig template is overridden, extending the template with empty content.
  • The matched generator encounters an error and doesn't render the breadcrumbs
  • No generator is matched. In the standard setup, the lowest priority RoutesBreadcrumbsGenerator checks the active Router service to match the active Request service. That should always be the case.

Custom Twig functions

The wo_breadcrumbs() function returns a WhiteOctober\BreadcrumbsBundle\Model\Breadcrumbs object. It is used in breadcrumb_list.html.twig to determine the number of generated breadcrumbs.

Additional data in the breadcrumb nodes

The translationParameters property of a breadcrumb contains additional data, which includes type of the breadcrumb. The type depends on the generator used:

  • CatalogBreadcrumbsGenerator - ez_content
  • EzContentBreadcrumbsGenerator - catalog
  • RoutesBreadcrumbsGenerator - route

Example: non-clickable breadcrumbs

Additional data can be used, for example, to define if a breadcrumb of a Location should be clickable or hidden.

The following example (from breadcrumb_list.html.twig) changes the breadcrumbs to non-clickable bold text (if translationParameters.type is of type catalog):
