Breadcrumbs Legacy

Breadcrumbs are a series of links which show the user which page they are viewing within a course.

The user is viewing a page within a module.


<ol class="breadcrumb">
  <li><a href="#">DEF000</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">1. Module 1 - Introduction</a></li>
  <li class="active">1.7 Multilingual course (i18n)</li>
</ol>

General guidelines

The breadcrumbs should always be visible when the user is viewing a child page inside a course. They don’t need to be used if the user is outside of a course.

The breadcrumbs start from the index page of the course, not the A+ front page. The top-level item is always the course code.

The final breadcrumb should always be the currently visible page.

Known Issues

  • Should the top level be the front page?
