- Customize directory and file names!
- In the "basic" version, items in the trail are listed as they're spelled on your server.
In the "advanced" version, tell the program who you want the items in your "trail" named!
For example:
-> Home -> Scripts -> Popcorn Trail -> Popcorn Code
in place of:
-> / -> php_scripts -> popcorn -> popcorn_code.php
- Easily Specify Multiple Trails with Multiple Settings on the same page or multiple pages with only ONE copy of the code!
- At the top of your page, you might have your trail look like:
-> Home -> Scripts -> Popcorn Trail -> Popcorn Code
At the bottom of the page, you might have a different view such as:
Home | Scripts | Popcorn Trail | Popcorn Code
- Have your trail end at the last directory OR actual file calling the code!
- Do you want your trail to extend to the file currently being viewed? Or just the last directory? Easily set this for each trail!
For example:
/ -> php_scripts -> popcorn -> popcorn_code.php
OR
/ -> php_scripts -> popcorn
- Have multiple trails, each with its own "separator", including images!
- You can use the default trail item separator of "
->", or specify your own! And you can have a different
separator for each trail on your page!
For example:
Home -> Scripts -> Popcorn Trail -> Popcorn Code
AND
Home | Scripts | Popcorn Trail | Popcorn Code
- Have the trail separator start before OR after the first item!
- For example:
-> Home -> Scripts -> Popcorn Trail -> Popcorn Code
OR
Home -> Scripts -> Popcorn Trail -> Popcorn Code
