Breadcrumb override issues
Standard member
Secondly, I'm having issues getting overrides to play nice with child pages (see what I did there?). They seem to work beautifully with parent pages, though.
Example:
Code
<substitution label="Features and Tools" match_key="help:website:featuresandtools">
<span label="Home">:</span>
<span label="Help and Support">help:</span>
<span label="Website">help:website:overview</span>
</substitution>…shows: Home → Help and Support → Website → Features and Tools
The website breadcrumb link should link to help:website:overview but it's completely ignoring the child-page (currently links to help:website)

This will fix the first issue:
https://github.com/ocproducts/composr/commit/9143b7386e9bf62d0f90782b4f203abbf03a6377
The second issue seems to be a misunderstanding. help:website:overview translates to something like help/index.php?page=website&type=overview (depending on the URL scheme). i.e. the 3rd clause is for the 'type' parameter (screen type), not for specifying a child page.
Let's pretend your child page has a codename of website_overview, you'd just do help:website_overview. Composr will automatically convert that into the correct URL, with whatever URL moniker that page has (e.g. website/overview).

The UI I created is a bunch of tabs and sub tabs. Depending on which tab (or page) is being viewed, this dictates the active styling on the tab. The issue is, I need to be able to specify the parent page as well as the child page within the page-link for the active styling to take effect…this is just the way I coded it up. Adding a 3rd clause (in my case, the child page) makes all the active styling work correctly.
You can check it out to get a better understanding of what I did:

By the way, I migrated to a catalogues-display of my content using the cc_embed block. So as long as I have my title tags in order within my entries, the breadcrumbs show nicely by default so I dont need to override anything.

I'd need to see it not working on your site to comment further, as your XML worked okay on a quick mockup I did on my end.
