The SharePoint breadcrumb is a nice feature to have on your pages. However, it doesn\u2019t appear tidy in certain scenarios. For the case below, we\u2019re going to get rid of the "Pages" library link in the breadcrumb of a publishing site.<\/p>\n

Normal breadcrumb:<\/p>\n

My Portal -> Pages -> Test Page1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Updated breadcrumb:<\/p>\n

My Portal -> Test Page1<\/strong><\/p>\n

To do this, simply change the breadcrumb source provider to CurrentNavSiteMapProviderNoEncode<\/font>.  You have to change this in SiteMapPath tag on the SiteMapProvider attribute.<\/p>\n

Old:<\/p>\n

<asp:SiteMapPath SiteMapProvider="<\/font><\/font>SPContentMapProvider<\/font><\/font><\/font>" id="ContentMap" SkipLinkText="" NodeStyle-CssClass="ms-sitemapdirectional" runat="server"\/><\/font><\/p>\n

New:<\/p>\n

<asp:SiteMapPath SiteMapProvider="CurrentNavSiteMapProviderNoEncode<\/font>" id="ContentMap" SkipLinkText="" NodeStyle-CssClass="ms-sitemapdirectional" runat="server"\/><\/font><\/p>\n

One gotcha is that when you use CurrentNavSiteMapProviderNoEncode, if you want your page names to show up in the breadcrumb, (instead of being truncated off \u2013 for instance, in the case above, your breadcrumb would simply be "My Portal" instead of "My Portal \u2013> Test Page1"), you have to make sure that "Show Pages" is true for the current navigation – even if you don\u2019t want to display pages on the left navigation you have to enable it (assuming you want it to appear in the breadcrumb). However, there is a saving grace, if you enable this setting and you don\u2019t want the pages in the left navigation, you can simply go and hide your pages one by one via the navigation settings.<\/p>\n
