Did anybody figure out how to make bread crumbs work if you reach a view id that has a menu item rendered attribute set to false?
The use case is as following, let's say you are presented with a questionnaire after which you will get a report page with the right/wrong answers. It does not make sense to render a menu Report on which you can click directly because you can't have a report until you go through all the questions. So I set rendered attribute of the menu item corresponding to report view id to "false". At the same time I still want to see my bread crumbs when user eventually hits the report pages (after answering the questions), so, that the user knows how he ended up on this page. Unfortunately bread crumbs don't show if the corresponding menu id "rendered" is set to false. I am thinking to redefined the bread crumb UI component unless I get some cool suggestions. Would trinidad be interested in such a change? struberg wrote: > > Hello! > > I'm a complete noob to trinidad and myfaces, so please excuse any obvious > or stupid questions. > At least I've searched yahoo, google and read through nabble, so hopefully > my asking is not too > dumb :) > > I'm currently writing a sample for a standard business application which > also contains a menu > based on XMLMenuModel plus navigation with tr:breadCrumb at the top of the > page and > tr:navigationTree at the left side. > > The menu structure looks like the following: > > home > +-- customer > | +-- search customers > | +-- browse customers > | +-- view customer > | +-- edit customer > | > +-- reporting > | +-- generate report > | +-- browse report > | > +-- admin > +-- employee admin > | +-- search employee > | +-- view employee > | +-- edit employee > | +-- modify authorisation > | > +-- repository admin > +-- view repositories > +-- edit repository > > > So basically i use a menu entry for every distinct jspx page, to get the > proper message shown in > the breadCrumbs.
