In my layout that I am creating I want all of the Action Items up in the Pathbar like the name and the login. So I copied 

      {foreach from=$layout.itemLinks item=link}
      <li><a href="{$link.url}">{$link.text}</a></li>
      {/foreach}

from the sidebar.tpl to pathbar.tpl and nothing shows up so then I tried

  {if ($layout.show.sidebarActions && !empty($layout.itemLinks))}
      {foreach from=$layout.itemLinks item=link}
      <li><a href="{$link.url}">{$link.text}</a></li>
      {/foreach}
  {/if}

But that didn't work either. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,

That's a neat idea. I tried that also. I just copied those lines into the bread crumb and they showed up for me. My breadcrumb looks like this, now:

<ul class="gbBreadCrumb"> 
  {section name=parent loop=$layout.parents} 
  <li {if $smarty.section.parent.first}class="giBreadCrumbFirst"{/if}> 
    {if ! $smarty.section.parent.last} 
    <a href="{g->url arg1="view=core:ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$layout.parents[parent].id`" arg3="highlightId=`$layout.parents[\
parent.index_next].id`"}">{$layout.parents[parent].title|default:$layout.parents[parent].pathComponent|markup}</a> 
    {else} 
    <a href="{g->url arg1="view=core:ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$layout.parents[parent].id`" arg3="highlightId=`$layout.item.id`\
"}">{$layout.parents[parent].title|default:$layout.parents[parent].pathComponent|markup}</a> 
    {/if} 
  </li> 
  {/section} 
  <li {if empty($layout.parents)}class="giBreadCrumbFirst"{/if}> 
    {$layout.item.title|default:$layout.item.pathComponent|markup} 
  </li> 
 
  {foreach from=$layout.itemLinks item=link} 
  <li><a href="{$link.url}">{$link.text}</a></li> 
  {/foreach} 
</ul>

Is that what yours looked like after your change?

Not quite. I want the actions to come after the login/logout in the menu not in the bread crumb so my code looks like this except for some reason mine doesn't work. I also want to flip the order so if the window is not big enough the links go to two lines not the bread crumb.

<div id="gsSystemLinks">
  <ul>
  {if $layout.show.sidebarGreeting}
  <li>
    {g->text text="Welcome, %s" arg1=$layout.user.fullName|default:$layout.user.userName}
  </li>
  {/if}
  {foreach from=$layout.systemLinks item=item}
  <li>
    <a href="{g->url params=$item.params}">{$item.text}</a>
  </li>
  {/foreach}
        {foreach from=$layout.itemLinks item=link}
      <li><a href="{$link.url}">{$link.text}</a></li>
      {/foreach}
  </ul>
</div>

<ul class="gbBreadCrumb">
  {section name=parent loop=$layout.parents}
  <li {if $smarty.section.parent.first}class="giBreadCrumbFirst"{/if}>
    {if ! $smarty.section.parent.last}
    <a href="{g->url arg1="view=core:ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$layout.parents[parent].id`" arg3="highlightId=`$layout.parents[parent.index_next].id`"}">{$layout.parents[parent].title|default:$layout.parents[parent].pathComponent|markup}</a>
    {else}
    <a href="{g->url arg1="view=core:ShowItem" arg2="itemId=`$layout.parents[parent].id`" arg3="highlightId=`$layout.item.id`"}">{$layout.parents[parent].title|default:$layout.parents[parent].pathComponent|markup}</a>
    {/if}
  </li>
  {/section}
  <li {if empty($layout.parents)}class="giBreadCrumbFirst"{/if}>
    {$layout.item.title|default:$layout.item.pathComponent|markup}
  </li>
</ul>

I'm not the best person to help you with this stuff (I have zero UI ability). But if I understand what you're asking, then you can just create a second breadcrumb bar and put it at the bottom of pathbar.tpl, like this:

<ul class="gbBreadCrumb"> 
  {foreach from=$layout.itemLinks item=link} 
  <li><a href="{$link.url}">{$link.text}</a></li> 
  {/foreach}  
</ul>

You can define your own CSS class if you don't want to reuse gbBreadCrumb. Put it at the end of layouts/lvthunder/layout.css.php and define it any way that you want.

Thanks for you help. Now I feel really dumb. The reason it wasn't working was I forgot to change the path to the include files in albumbody.tpl and singlebody.tpl so it was reading the original ones in the matrix layout not my modified ones.

I'd like to do that too, but I'm using the carbon theme.
In sidebar.tpl, the code looks like this:

{* Show the sidebar blocks chosen for this theme *}
{foreach from=$theme.params.sidebarBlocks item=block}
{g->block type=$block.0 params=$block.1 class="gbBlock"}
{/foreach}
{g->block type="core.NavigationLinks" class="gbBlock"}

The problem is that I have "item links" and "links to album/photo peers" blocks enabled but I only want to display the item links in my header.
How do you selectively display that since this code pulls out all blocks?
