Wondering how I can add a link to breadcrumbs for a post type when on a taxonomy archive. Basically, lets say I have a post type of Sermons. And then a taxonomy that is series. Right now, when the breadcrumbs are built, the post type isn't added as a level.
Now: Home > Sermon Series
Would Like: Home > Sermons > Sermon Series
Any ideas how to make that happen with any great ease? I've dug a little, but I'm unsure of how this might work.

July 5, 2013 at 3:01 pm #49409OzzyMemberhave you tried modifying the breadcrumbs by using the code to modify them on this page: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/breadcrumbs/ ?
July 5, 2013 at 3:20 pm #49416weslindaMemberOzzy, yup. The issue is very specific to CPTs and it's not one I'm really seeing any answers to. Outside of modifying the home link, then I can't find an answer. It's a little surprising that this isn't built in.

July 5, 2013 at 3:30 pm #49419weslindaMemberThis is specific to a taxonomy archive. It works properly on a post in the post type, it's the taxonomy archive where its not showing the cpt in the url structure. Is the page you're linking to a taxonomy archive?

Since taxonomies can be applied to multiple post types, it's not easy to correctly work out which of those post types you want as the "parent" crumb. As such, in G 2.0 it's treated like a standard archive (since that's what a taxonomy archive is), albeit with a different filterable label and different filterable output.

July 5, 2013 at 3:45 pm #49421OzzyMemberyeah, it's not a taxonomy archive, just a post inside of a CPT.
after reading @GaryJ posts, it may be worth upgrading to 2.0 and seeing if it makes your life easier as whatever you do before may need to be modified after the upgrade anyways.
July 5, 2013 at 4:06 pm #49423weslindaMemberWe're playing the waiting game on Genesis 2.0 right, for WordPress 3.6? So we have no specific time table for that release?
