Bug? Blog page displays despite is not checked.

    Hi I’ve just installed the 5.5.0 version and noticed a few issues.

    First there are a lot of values at “disabled” state and can not be changed. I had to manually alter the html code and remove the disabled with firebug or something similar and then see the effects take place at the frontend.

    The second issue I noticed is that if you declare a “Posts page” here /wp-admin/options-reading.php it gets displayed as a parent of all Pages (not posts or custom post types). I have unchecked the “Place the blog breadcrumb in the trail.” I think this is a bug.

    Has anybody else experienced something like this?

    There are two cases that will cause options to be disabled in the settings page. The first is if the setting is not applicable to your current site setup (this is seen in the Blog and Mainsite breadcrumb settings under the General tab). The second is if the setting depends on another setting to be enabled (e.g. the hierarchy options are only available for a post type if you have enabled the display of the hierarchy for that post type). Changing their values should have no effect on the generated breadcrumb trail.

    The second issue is a bug, it has been fixed in the master branch on GitHub, and 5.5.1 has been pushed to the development (trunk) branch on www.ads-software.com. Expect 5.5.1 to be released shortly. See https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/how-to-edit-pages-template-to-remove-word-posts?replies=2

    Thank you for your quick answer. Regarding the first issue those options used to be enabled on the previous version of the plugin. I mean that all options like this: “Show the hierarchy (specified below) leading to a post in the breadcrumb trail.” for every post type are disabled.

    The weird is that edit the html and I remove the class disabled and the tag and now I have a parent breadcrumb like the post taxonomy for example. I will also try this on my other websites as well. It is just the first that I have updated.

    Have you tried clearing your browser’s cache? Your browser may have an older version of the javascript that handled enabling/disabling the settings cached and hasn’t cleared it yet (to load the new version).

    Yes I had tried that. Today I tried also to replicate the issue on other websites. But it works fine on the others. I think that on the first I had open two browser tabs on the plugin settings at the backend and I accidentally clicked to save the settings on the old browser tab which hadn’t reloaded the new version yet. Could that cause an issue?

    I suppose it is possible. Though, I only had this issue appear once in development, where the old file was cached and it didn’t load the new javascript (and clearing the browser cache/reloading fixed it).
