What is a breadcrumb?

[KatieC]

This is probably a super newbie question, but I am really new to website stuff. I am trying to setup a banner ad inside the admin panel. I don't know what "breadcrumb" means.

I don't know what "breadcrumb" means.

A breadcrumb is just the trail of links to the destination.

Using this thread as an example, you'll see the breadcrumb as:

Home > Forums > Customer forums > Forum management

Top breadcrumb is the one at the top.
Bottom breadcrumb is the one when you scroll down to the bottom of the page.
