Lack of interest Eliminate the Breadcrumb in non-Forum areas

[Digital Doctor]

Breadcrumbs aren't helpful in non-Forum Tabs.
They seem to emphasize that xenForo is just a forum. With forum-like things in areas they shouldn't be. Plus it's just junky.



I think it would be a good idea to make the breadcrumb easy to TOGGLE OFF or ON for certain tabs. Style designers please make note !

Update: This post shows you how to get rid of the breadcrumb.

Update: April 20, 2011
Breadcrumbs are useful for navigating nested forums, galleries with hierarchical categories, a database with hierarchy, and catalogues with nested categories.
The more nested the information, the more the breadcrumb helps.

For Information with no hierarchy / nesting ... breadcrumbs do not provide any function.

How do I inform template designers to encourage them to think of Xenforo as more than just a forum !

Uhm, I thought XenForo was only a forum?

Officially, Yes.
Hopefully for a very short time.
The community has already spoken that people want more than just a forum.
Wordpress, XenPorta, XenCarta, XenMedio ... etc.
I dont specifically request, but I'd love to see a soon-to-be-released xF with
- easy to make Tabs
- Pages that can be edited outside the AdminCP (with commenting, and attaching).
Sort of like a Logician's Webtemplates.
It wouldn't make xenforo a CMS but it would bring some added functionality in the near term to bridge the gap.
