System. Page developers use this portlet to add breadcrumbs to a page to show the current page's location within the My webMethods Server taxonomy.
Primarily page developers add the portlet as a Shell component. For example, the Shell for the Administration Dashboard uses the Basic Breadcrumbs portlet, and it displays:
Folders > Administrative Folders> Administration Dashboard
Page developers can configure the portlet so that end users can click the breadcrumb nodes to navigate to another folder or page.
Properties
Breadcrumbs root (root)
Identifies the top-level folder for the breadcrumbs. Specify the name of a folder. By default, the portlet uses Folders.
For example, if this property is set to Public Folders, when an end user displays a page within the Public Folders taxonomy, the Basic Breadcrumbs portlet displays:
Public Folders > My Folder
If this property is not specified and the default, Folders, is used, the Basic Breadcrumbs portlet for a page within the Public Folder taxonomy displays:
Folders > Public Folders > My Folder
Breadcrumbs leaf (leaf)
Identifies the expression or location for the right-most breadcrumb node. Typical expressions are:
*current.resource – Default. Make the right-most breadcrumb node the current page.
*resource.parent – Make the right-most breadcrumb node the parent folder of the current page.
Link Expression (link)
Indicates whether you want end users to be able to navigate to pages or folders by clicking the breadcrumb nodes. Settings are:
*{uri} – Default. Make the breadcrumb nodes clickable links so that the end user can navigate to the folder or page specified by the breadcrumb.
*empty – Do not make the breadcrumb nodes clickable links.
Exclude Root (exclusive)
Required. Indicates whether the breadcrumb nodes should include the root folder. Specify one of the following:
*true – Exclude the root folder from the breadcrumb nodes.
*false – Default. Include the root folder in the breadcrumb nodes.
