'''SUGGESTION''':
 +
 +
I've noted that changing the page title display does not actually change the page name - so searching for "Users" will not bring up a result in the autocomplete for search (only searching for Community/Users will).

My suggestion, to at least try to make this more clear, is to keep the original page name in the breadcrumb - i.e. since the page you are on is not actually entered as a hyperlink when manually creating the breadcrumb, we might as well leave it as the full page name.

So.... NOT LIKE THIS:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
[[Main Page]] > [[Community]] > Users
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
BUT LIKE THIS:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
[[Main Page]] > [[Community]] > Community/Users

</pre>

Welcome to the Access to Memory wiki

TO DO

PRO TIP: Extension to add nice page titles is now installed! So if you have a page like "Community/Users", you can now add the following at the top

{{#pagetitle: Users }}

... and it will change the display, while keeping the nice hierarchy we have made. REMEMBER to make sure that a nice breadcrumb has been added first. Check out the Users page as an example.

You can also give links to pages that same clean look like this:

[[Community/Users|Users]]

SUGGESTION:

I've noted that changing the page title display does not actually change the page name - so searching for "Users" will not bring up a result in the autocomplete for search (only searching for Community/Users will).

My suggestion, to at least try to make this more clear, is to keep the original page name in the breadcrumb - i.e. since the page you are on is not actually entered as a hyperlink when manually creating the breadcrumb, we might as well leave it as the full page name.

So.... NOT LIKE THIS:

[[Main Page]] > [[Community]] > Users

BUT LIKE THIS:

[[Main Page]] > [[Community]] > Community/Users
