Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
darth12 Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Make "Home" the Forums Home and remove the second level navigation link to my forums name that currently exists. How do I do that? Eg In the above here it says Home Forums Community Led Resources Peer to Peer Technical Support Create New Topic How would I just make it say: Home Community Led Resources Peer to Peer Technical Support Create New Topic With "Home" linking to the forums homepage (which in this case is the only module I run).
opentype Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 The second level navigation is removed by simply removing all entries from the second level navigation.
darth12 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Posted August 1, 2018 Thanks @opentype I realised I didn't explain it very well. Currently I only run the system and the forum module. IPB is installed to /forums/ on my site. Currently in my navigation right above the forums (where it says "Home > Forums > Community Led Resources > Peer to Peer Technical Support" here) I have "Home > VGZ Forums > Sub-forum" etc) My problem is that the "Home" and "VGZ Forums" links take me to the exact same URL (/forums/) and so I want to delete one or the other.
opentype Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Okay. The word you are looking for is breadcrumb. You want to change the breadcrumb. I am not sure how your site is currently set up. Can you link your site?
darth12 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Posted August 1, 2018 Hi, I DM'ed you the URL. I just don't want to post in publicly, please feel free to post the answer (if you want to help me) here in the public forum without the URL so others can benefit too though. Thanks!

I cannot replicate this on your site. Home is the top level taking the user to your forums app, since that is the default app of your installation. The next sub category in the breadcrumb navigation is NOT the same URL, but your main forum category, holding all your forums. You just happen to have one parent forum category. So clicking this link doesn’t make all that much sense, but having the main categories in the breadcrumb navigation does make sense. There is no option to turn that off I think.

Thank you, I understand. I was certain I had a plugin to fix it at one point but then it stopped working and now I can't find it any more either. Thanks again for all your help and time!
