Saving Term deletes Vocab Breadcrumb path data

Sorry, I've tried but I can't reproduce the problem that you describe. If I have a path for a vocabulary (Cars), and then edit and save a term (Ford) within that vocabulary, the vocabulary path (stored in taxonomy_breadcrumb_vocabulary) for Cars remains as it was before the path for the Ford term was edited and a new path for the Ford term is created in the taxonomy_breadcrumb_term table. If Ford is designated as the parent of another term (say Mustang), then a request for taxonomy/term/tid for Mustang correctly retrieves the Ford path from the taxonomy_breadcrumb_term table to set up the breadcrumb: Home>>Cars>>Ford>>Mustang. I believe this is exactly how it is supposed to work.

Perhaps you can give some additional information on how to produce the problem....I was a little confused by your explanation at first and may be misunderstanding the issue. If you are editing a term (Edit Term form) then the term's path is stored in taxonomy_breadcrumb_term table, and the vocabulary path (stored in taxonomy_breadcrumb_vocabulary table) shouldn't change. At least that's my understanding.

Hope this helps

Hello
I have installed the latest version of the module and I have the same problem.

I'll explain to your my problem using your example.
I have a vocabulary named Cars and some terms named Ford, Chrysler, Mercedes etc
I edit the vocabulary at admin/content/taxonomy/edit/vocabulary/1 and I set the "Breadcrumb path (taxonomy_breadcrumb)". I click on save and the path is saved. I go back again to the vocabulary editing page to check if the breadcrumb path is still there and it is.

Then i edit the Ford term at admin/content/taxonomy/edit/term/2 , I enter the breadcrumb path cars/ford and click on save. I return to the page for editing the Ford term to check if the breadcrumb path is there and it is ok.

Now I go back to vocabulary editing page at admin/content/taxonomy/edit/vocabulary/1 and now the Breadcrumb path has disappeared...

I hope my explanation helps...

Looking forward to a solution to this bug.
Kind regards
Nikolas

Thanks, I was able to reproduce it this time. The problem seems to be that hook_taxonomy is called when the term is changed, but then also for the term's vocabulary. And since the vocabulary edit form was not called, taxonomy_breadcrumb_form_taxonomy_form_vocabulary_alter was not able to insert the vocabulary path. So the correct vocabulary path was being deleted when the term was updated.

The following patch just adds a check to make sure that taxonomy_breadcrumb_path has been set before updating the database.

Give it a try and let me know if solves your problem - seems to work correctly now for me.

Thanks for your help!
