I'm using Advanced Help to display field-by-field help for one of the Drupal core forms (node editing). The documentation does not explain how to this, but I found that I could make it work by adding a help link to each field's label in a module_form_alter hook function.

My problem is that for obvious reasons, the hook function is not in the module it applies to. In fact, it already existed for an unrelated purpose, and is in a custom module written for that purpose. Consequently the breadcrumb at the top of the help window contains a name that is meaningless to the user, and will just create confusion.

I'd be happy to solve this problem by suppressing the breadcrumb display completely. I can do that by editing the help pop-up's template or its stylesheet, but I don't want to make changes to the module if there is another way to do it. Any suggestions?

You can do it with css in the "module" help - "display: none" - which you can specify in a css referred to in the ini file. However, I don't see how to add a css to the "index" page since that isn't part of the "module" help system but part of the help module itself.

This patch http://drupal.org/node/305301 should alleviate this problem. It does not completely fix it, mind you.

Another way to alleviate this problem might be through the drupal_alter hooks that were added by http://drupal.org/node/298210

Since it is possible to use modulename%topic it is also possible for a module to put all of its items underneath another module's topic.
