What are some good ways to implement breadcrumbs on a Jekyll site?

Question

I\'m aware that there are single-level breadcrumbs in http://raphinou.github.com/jekyll-base/ but I\'m looking for some good ways to have breadcrumbs on a Jekyll sit

Answer 1

Thought I might throw this into the mix. This is based on Davelab6's example above, with a few improvements. The active class is set by the last entry in the loop - also contains permalinks for each crumb.

I haven't tested it with posts yet - but it should work. Let me know if any issues.

 
Home
 {% assign crumbs = page.url | split: '/' %}
 {% assign crumbs_total = crumbs | size | minus: 1 %}
   {% for crumb in crumbs offset: 1 %}
    {% if forloop.index == crumbs_total %}
        
{{ crumb | replace:'-',' ' }}
    {% else %}
        
{{ crumb | replace:'-',' ' }}
    {% endif %}
  {% endfor %}
