You can use the `bp_group_hierarchy_breadcrumbs()` function to display this.
The documentation incorrectly says that this function RETURNS this text, when in fact it ECHOES it.
Hi
Thanks
I tried to throw the following in my header:
echo bp_group_hierarchy_breadcrumbs();
bp_group_hierarchy_breadcrumbs();
It caused the white screen of death.
This is when I was in the root of my site (not a group).
Forgive my poor coding skills but is there a way to display the breadcrumb even if it is at the home path?
And, get the original request working ?
Cheers
Johnny
I added
“
to my single/group-header.php file and it works fine.
The problem is styling it. I added the following to bp-group-hierarchy-template.php at line 171:
Original: `echo bp_group_hierarchy_get_breadcrumbs();`
New: `echo ‘
‘.bp_group_hierarchy_get_breadcrumbs().’
‘;`
And then added the pbgh_breadcrumbs class to my style sheet. It worked well. Might I suggest a similar revision for the next update?
Hi the above php worked for me
however, the function keeps outputting a rubbish link
Why isn’t it specifying anything within the anchor? this happens regards of if i am at root, at groups, at sub group, at sub sub group.
?
Any ideas?
Cheers
Johnny
@johnnymestizo – can you provide an example of the “rubbish link” that is being generated? That would be helpful in troubleshooting.
Hi @DDean
I got breadcrumbs working in single/group-header.php
However, I would like to call it from my header.php or functions.php file.
As, I want to insert breadcrumbs in the top menu bar of my site.
Is this function only support in the group loop?
Cheers
Johnny
Never mind, i have ripped my wp menu apart and placed the bp_group_hierarchy_get_breadcrumbs() as a menu to replace it, when bp_is_group() is true
Cheers,
Johnny
Hi,
I have made this group in my header bar.
div id=”tradr-group-breadcrumbs
Please go to http://tradr.com/groups/ and see it not work correctly.
Any ideas?

@3DPeruna your solution worked well for me. Thank you kindly. The only difference I made is to include the wrapping `div` in my child theme’s single/group-header.php rather than mess with the plugin code itself (in bp-group-hierarchy-template.php). We already need to add the `php echo` into the child theme file so I thought we might as well slot the wrapping `div` there too.
It probably is better still to use child-theme/functions.php and lever off the `bp_before_group_header_meta` action hook but this will do for now.
I was originally looking for a parent group widget but this is better as it makes sense to see the complete hierarchy line of parent groups. Nice work. 
Hi Dean,
Any idea why it doesn’t work for me?
I am keen to run this still…
Cheers,
Johnny

Any idea why this does not work?
Many thanks,

Hi all,
I’ve posted a short write-up on adding breadcrumbs to your group pages. It’s pretty straightforward – as you all have already discovered, there’s no way around a child theme. But there still seems to be a lot of confusion, so I hoped this would straighten things out.

This works awesome now! Thanks David.
Hi David

You guide says this should work but I couldnt get it working.
‘bp_group_hierarchy_get_breadcrumbs( $separator = ‘|’, $group = false )’
Any ideas?
