Home breadcrum link won't work, any idea?

[vandiike]

Hi all.

I am trying to get the Home breadcrum link to work, but I keep getting missing file name.

What could have gone wrong.

I have includes/configure.php:

define('DIR_WS_HOME', '/~username/'); //Home added

application_top.php:

$breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_HOME, DIR_WS_HOME);
$breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG, tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT));

english.php:

define('HEADER_TITLE_HOME', 'Home');

Is this the correct way of doing this, or have I made more complicated than I need to??

Cheers for you coching...and smootching...

'DIR_WS_HOME' is invalid - does not exist - not definned in the default OSC install.

I am not sure what your tring to do but the breadcrumbs work fine for me as is, with no changes.

I have my oscommerce site hosted at aabox. As it was, Top was redirected to www.aabox.com.

Org:

$breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_TOP, HTTP_SERVER);
$breadcrumb->add(HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG, tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT));

The http_server in config.. is set to: define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://205.214.80.96')

So clicking on Top goes to the root.

What i wanted was to add Home in the breadcrum and link it to http://205.214.80.96/~myusername/ the root of my web site.

Is there away to do this?

Thanks

to see live http://www.insituconservation.com/catalog/
So Home should be linked to http://www.insituconservation.com

Not big of a problem, but isn't it weird to implement the standard aabox Oscommerce like that, click on Top and you go to the root of aabox.com
hmm?? Or is it free marketing for aabox?

Mangaged to make it work. with above settings but the

define('DIR_WS_HOME', '/~username/'); //Home added

was wrong should be:

define('DIR_WS_HOME', 'http://205.214.80.96/~username/'); //Home added

vandiike, It is not any hidden agenda by AABox. The problem is that you were using the IP. Once you switch to your domain name, there are no problems. It will direct to your domain. And if you look closely, it is not directing to AABox home page, but rather, the default AABOX 404 ERROR page. Use your domain rather than IP and there are no problems.
