Breadcrumbs

[ncalcott]

This is more for Geoff and Kyle than it is for Marty (initially, at least), but I feel like the navigation is a little bit confusing at the moment - initially, we were speaking about having some sort of sense of where you are in the title (see below), but I feel like the titles are so nice and graphic at the moment that it would be a shame to screw with them.

Perhaps a simple breadcrumb system somewhere up near the menu? Just below the grey line, aligned left, perhaps? As in, Projects > Yearbook > 09 or something similar?

@KyleETC asks:

How long would this take?

It depends on the graphic treatment. If it's something you'd like to consider implementing, please send me a mockup of how it would look.

[gehalber]

Yup. Sure. This is pretty simple. Marty, the file "calcott-design-04-pxgrotesk-bold.indd" has been saved.

[gehalber]

Oh, this should NOT fix like the nav. It should scroll like the images.

[ncalcott]

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I was picturing.

[halfempty]

@gehalber Would we also need breadcrumbs on Index pages?

[gehalber]

Yes.

@gehalber

I've put in some breadcrumbs, please look.

How do you feel about how they are when the titles are long? Example:

[gehalber]

Yeah, its a bit weird. Let’s try making the breadcrumbs font-size: 14px.

thanks!

Looks good!
And the design of it was breaking a little on my large monitor, so I nested it into a 'maxwidth' div to prevent that issue...

@halfempty - Just trying to get the same system you used to show the level 2 page for books to work for the subpages of Yearbook (i.e. http://www.nicholascalcott.com/projects/yearbook/13-2/ ) and I can't get it to work. Any ideas what might be going wrong? It's line 13 and 14 in breadcrumbs.php...

[ncalcott]

@halfempty - Never mind, got it! It was the order the elseif statements were in.

[gehalber]

hold up! Is that a wrap?!

Perhaps... I'm sending out my e-mail this afternoon. I'd just like to see if anyone catches any egregious bugs that we missed, but I can't find anything else.

[gehalber]

ok

The info box has disappeared. Dunno when that happened...

[ncalcott]

So, the only outstanding issue is a slight bug on the updates, which I'll open as a new issue...
