OpenCart Community

I am new to this platform, having used Zen cart for a number of years, and need assistance with the breadcrumb generation.

I just started setting up a new site and noticed that the breadcrumb gets repeated for the last category when clicking through the categories available. Once you click on a product then the problem seems to go away.
My website ling is https://diy.web.za with the specific examples at https://diy.web.za/index.php?route=prod ... ath=1_3_49 (incorrect breadcrumb string) and then at https://diy.web.za/index.php?route=prod ... ath=1_3_49 where breadcrumb shows correctly after clicking on a product.

The only changes made from the standard install was to modify the stylesheet.css file to produce the desired look.

Please assist

Let me just add that the breadcrumb seems to be working great when you click on brand and select a manufacturer. It only gets duplicated when selecting categories.

What version of OpenCart?

Thank you for your response. I installed the latest version 4.0.2.3

It could be this issue. https://github.com/opencart/opencart/issues/13777
Unfortunately 4.0.x version of OpenCart have some bugs like this.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

The problem on my side has been resolved. I downloaded the current version of the "\upload\catalog\controller\product\catalog.php" from GITHUB. After making a backup of the current file, I simply uploaded the latest version and the Breadcrumb trail is now working as expected.

PS. Currently over 900 nested categories with planned 35K-45K products on offer.

Currently most developers don't recommend that version, see here:

THANK YOU diyweb!!!! I was having the same problem with my OC 4.0.2.3 store and it was driving me crazy. The code I downloaded was from the GITHUB upload/catalog/controller/product/category file, and replaced the code that was there, and PRESTO my breadcrumbs work as expected now. Thank you for posting your solution!
