NAME
Templer::Plugin::Breadcrumbs - A plugin to create breadcrumbs
SYNOPSIS
The following is a good example use of this plugin
title: About my site
crumbs: Home,Software
----
<p>This is my page content...</p>
Here the variable 'crumbs' will be converted into a loop variable called 'breadcrumbs'. THe links and titls will be set automatically, but if you need to override them you can do so via:
title: About my site
crumbs: Home,Software[Soft],Testing[Test]
----
<p>This is my page content...</p>
That will result in links to /, /Soft, and /Soft/Test, respectively. With display names of "Home", "Software" and "Testing".
DESCRIPTION
This plugin expands the values of "crumbs", as written in a template, to a loop-variable with the name "breadcrumbs".
This can be used in a template like so:
<!-- tmpl_if name='breadcrumbs' -->
<ul>
<!-- tmpl_loop name='breadcrumbs' -->
<li><a href="<!-- tmpl_var name='link' -->"><!-- tmpl_var name='title' --></a></li>
<!-- /tmpl_loop -->
</ul>
<!-- /tmpl_if -->
This template is an example.
