Thanks for the suggestion. I have gone for a simpler solution after visiting a site where the breadcrumb menu did not include the web site root page but started from the level below. This meets the needs of the site.

I have modified my code as follows

#######################################
subparts.BREADCRUMB = HMENU
subparts.BREADCRUMB {
includeNotInMenu = 1
excludeUidList = 1
special = rootline
1 = TMENU
1 {
# Separate links with double-right arrow
NO.linkWrap = | »  |*||*| |
noBlur = 1
# Don't link current page
CUR = 1
CUR.doNotLinkIt = 1
}
}

I'm not sure that this is possible. Google doesn't bring up any hints on my end. Please let us know if you find a solution. We appear to be limited to these options in the TSref.

8.11. HMENU

In the meantime, you could try hard coding a different home page URL in your HTML templates and use the following TS to remove the top level root link.

Add the TS property, special.range = 1 to your breadcrumb:


Add the following hard coded link in red to your HTML templates:



I tested this and it's working here. My home page points to http://www.google.com

I was not clear enough in my question. I do not want to change the short cut specified in the home page. I want to change the action of the leftmost link in the breadcrumb menu to point to a differnt node than 1. I can't decipher it from the breadcrumb menu set-up as shown below

#######################################
subparts.BREADCRUMB = HMENU
subparts.BREADCRUMB {
includeNotInMenu = 1
special = rootline
1 = TMENU
1 {
# Separate links with double-right arrow
NO.linkWrap = | »  |*||*| |
noBlur = 1
# Don't link current page
CUR = 1
CUR.doNotLinkIt = 1
}
}

Click on the icon for the shortcut, and select edit page properties. You can then aim it at another page or, alternatively, change its page type to a "real" page instead of a shortcut.

I want the "home" link in the breadcrumb menu to point to a page other than the root of the site (ID=1).

How do I change it?
