My english is a shame. But if  $pathThruUnPub works as you said, the detail info about how it works is not right.

   // $pathThruUnPub [ 1 | 0 ]
   // When you path includes an unpublished folder, setting this to
   // 1 will show all documents in path EXCEPT the unpublished.

What I understand is that if 1 will show all documents in path EXCEPT the unpublished, 0 obvioulsy  will show all documents in path including the unpublished.

I`m right? Or my english is worse that what i think?

cheers

Here's the down low:

Unpublished docs are NEVER SHOWN.

pathThruUnpub = true
All PUBLISHED documents from current to root page are shown.

pathThruUnpub = false
All PUBLISHED documents from current up to root OR first UNpublished document are shown.

   // $pathThruUnPub [ 1 | 0 ]
   // When you path includes an unpublished folder, setting this to
   // 1 will show all documents in path EXCEPT the unpublished.
   // Example path (unpublished in caps)
   // home > news > CURRENT > SPORTS > skiiing > article
   // $pathThruUnPub = true would give you this:
   // home > news > skiiing > article
   // $pathThruUnPub = false  would give you this:
   // home > skiiing > article (assuming you have home crumb turned on)
   if(!isset($pathThruUnPub)) $pathThruUnPub = 1;

From the documentation example structure (UNpublished docs in all caps):
home > news > CURRENT > SPORTS > skiiing > article

Note how the two example paths from the documentation differ:
$pathThruUnpub = true: home > news > skiiing > article
$pathThruUnpub = false: home > skiiing > article

In the (false) example, "news" is missing. The snippet starts from the current document, in this case "article" and moves up the tree including published documents (skiing) until it hits an unpublished document (SPORTS) at which time it stops. If the home crumb is turned on, then home is added as well, as shown in the example.

Does that help?

Here's an example:  /dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4

A page that calls Breadcrumbs from dir2 will show the correct URL for dir1. 
But, a page at dir3 shows link to:
dir2 as: /dir1/dir2/dir1/page.html          # extra dir1
dir1 as:  /dir1/dir2/page.html                # extra dir2
home as:  /dir1/dir2/page.html               # extra dir2

With 4 levels, the problem gets worse, dir4 shows links to:
dir 3 as: 12312       # extra /dir1/dir2 appended
dir2 as: 1231          # extra dirs:  3,1
dir1 as: 123            # extra dirs:  2,3
home as: 123         #  extra dirs:  2,3

I have the same problem, did someone found a workaround?

I made a small modification to the snippet. It didn't work correctly when called from within a chunk with parameters. Instead of applying overridden values it was falling back to those set in the snippet code. It also didn't accept 'longtite' and 'introtext' for crumb title and description.

Changes:

• redefinition of variable statements - now overrides from the call should work fine
• 'longtitle' and 'introtext' added to the pool of available title and description fields
• added $homeCrumbDescription - a custom home link description in case you'd need it

My modification is based on Breadcrumbs ver. 0.9c dated 2006.03.29. I'm not a coder, so I can't guarantee it will work for everyone. I just thouhgt of sharing it as it does work for me.

Have the same problem too. How i can fix it?

update: i have prepared the hack:
in that part of code:

   
while (($parent=$modx->getPageInfo($pid,!$pathThruUnPub,"id,pagetitle,menutitle,published,deleted,parent,hidemenu,description,longtitle,introtext")) && ($crumbCount < $maxCrumbs)) {
        if ($parent['published'] && !$parent['deleted'] && $parent['id'] != $modx->config['site_start']){
            if (!$respectHidemenu || ($respectHidemenu && $parent['hidemenu'] != 1 )){
                $titleToShow = ($parent[$titleField])? $parent[$titleField] : $parent['pagetitle'] ;
                $descriptionToUse = ($parent[$descField]) ? $parent[$descField] : $parent['pagetitle'] ;
                $ptarr[] = '<a class="B_crumb" href="[~'.$parent['id'].'~]" title="'.$descriptionToUse.'">'.$titleToShow.'</a>';

change  href="[~'.$parent['id'].'~]" to href="[(base_url)][~'.$parent['id'].'~]":

   
while (($parent=$modx->getPageInfo($pid,!$pathThruUnPub,"id,pagetitle,menutitle,published,deleted,parent,hidemenu,description,longtitle,introtext")) && ($crumbCount < $maxCrumbs)) {
        if ($parent['published'] && !$parent['deleted'] && $parent['id'] != $modx->config['site_start']){
            if (!$respectHidemenu || ($respectHidemenu && $parent['hidemenu'] != 1 )){
                $titleToShow = ($parent[$titleField])? $parent[$titleField] : $parent['pagetitle'] ;
                $descriptionToUse = ($parent[$descField]) ? $parent[$descField] : $parent['pagetitle'] ;
                $ptarr[] = '<a class="B_crumb" href="[(base_url)][~'.$parent['id'].'~]" title="'.$descriptionToUse.'">'.$titleToShow.'</a>';
