Append custom string to breadcrumb

Sathish Kannan asked on May 25, 2016 13:12

I have breadcrumb that uses page alias. I need to append my custom string to breadcrumb. For example, when I navigate from home page to sub page1 then my breadcrumb in sub page1 looks like

Home >> Sub Page1

Now I need to append a string "Landing" to "Sub Page1" so that it looks like

Home >> Sub Page1 Landing

I have no permission to update page name directly, I'm planning to do this by writing macro in "Show current item" under "Design" in breadcrumb web part properties. Any ideas?

If you don't want to write custom code, the best solution would be to append this string using jquery/javascript. I recently faced this and resolved this using JQuery.

Let me know if you need this solution.

Thanks, Chetan

Thanks for your answer. I can write script but is there a way to do this through macro?

Are you using breadcumb webpart for this? If it is not possible to achieve what you are using breadcumb web part then you will have to clone and modify it suit your style.

Somebody wrote a custom Breabcrumb and it might help you

Thanks, CHetan
