Breadcrumbs in sub-modules should link to pages, not directories.

[christian-schlichtherle]

... because otherwise the links are broken when not using a web server, e.g. when issuing

$ mvn site site:stage
$ open target/staging/index.html

and then browsing to any submodule.

Yes, browsing the submodules locally is an issue when the links are to directories. However, on the web I personally prefer the directory links rather than index.html.

Anyway, what is the default for other skins? Do they link to index.html pages? Because I thought I did not change how the breadcrumb links are generated..

Also, you can customise what/how the breadcrumb links are rendered using the <breadcrumbs> element in your site.xml, e.g.:

<breadcrumbs>
  <item name="Reflow" href="/index.html" />
</breadcrumbs>

Hi Andrius,

thanks for looking into this. Yes, this works in other skins and is especially important with multi-module projects where you typically do not want to customize breadcrumbs in each site.xml. Since the whole point of the doxia framework is to create a static web site, it should really work without a web server, so any skin should always link to individual pages, not directories.

I will get back to the other issues later.

Regards, Christian
