Categories and subcategories on question pages

Question

Hello,

i've seen that when i look the question pages i see the categorie on that a user has created a question.

But from when i've created some subcategories ( very usefull to organize better my site ) i see only the subcategory and not the relative category.

I've a lo of same subcategories for example bug or suggest that are related to every category and i'd like to see category and subcategory and not only subcategory.

The only solution is to create a lot of single category but is not so good how to have category and subcategory

Thank you

Put this in your theme or a layer where you want it to appear.

 

$this->output( backpath_to_breadcrumbs( $q_item['raw']['categorybackpath'] ) );

 

Here is the function.

 

function backpath_to_breadcrumbs($path) {

  $delimiter = "::"; // text placed between breadcrumbs

  $crumbs = explode("/", $path);

  $crumbs = array_reverse($crumbs);

  $previous = qa_opt("site_url"); 

  $output = "";

  foreach ( $crumbs as $crumb ) {

    $output .= ' <A HREF="'.$previous.$crumb.'" CLASS="breadcrumb" REL="nofollow">'.$crumb.'</A> '.$delimiter; 

    $previous .= $crumb."/";

  } // foreach

  $output = trim( substr($output, 0 , strlen($output) - strlen($delimiter) ) ); // remove last delimiter ::

  $output = '<SPAN CLASS="breadcrumb-list">'.$output.'</SPAN>';

  return $output;

} // function
