The extension implements a {{#breadcrumb: }} tag to set a parent page for each page. The resulting breadcrumb is displayed under the page title.
Usage[edit]
Just add a {{#breadcrumb: }} tag anywhere in your page to set its parent.
{{#breadcrumb: Parent_Page | Parent }}
The tag can be used in templates and accepts variables.
{{#breadcrumb: Category:Releases {{{product}}} | {{{product}}} }}
You should not add more than one breadcrumb tag in your page.
Installation[edit]
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
Simple Breadcrumb
in yourextensions/
folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'Simple Breadcrumb' );
- Run the update script which will automatically create the necessary database tables that this extension needs.
- Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration[edit]
The extension offers a bunch of configuration variables that can be overridden in LocalSettings.php after the inclusion of the extension.

$wgbcMaxCount = 5; // Maximum elements in breadcrumb
$wgbcOverflowPrefix = '…'; // Prefix when breadcrumb has more elements than fixed limit
