Where does the function breadcrumb_trail() come from? Are you using a breadcrumb plugin? Or did you write this function?

You’re right — I’ve been trying so many things I forget what’s been done. This is the Breadcrumb Trail plugin by Justin Tadlock. It’s customized to show » between links, and to show “home” with a lowercase h to match the rest. There isn’t an option for skipping the home page.
I tried wrapping it in variations of this:
<?php
if ( is_page('home')) {
echo '';
} else
echo '<p class="breadcrumbs">'
<?php if ( function_exists( 'breadcrumb_trail' ) ) {
breadcrumb_trail( array( 'separator' => '»' , 'before' => '','show_home' => __('home', 'breadcrumb_trail') ) );
}
?>
echo '</p>';
}
?>
But it didn’t work.
Since I’m calling a unique body id for each page, I’ll just set up css to display:none on this <p>.
Should have thought of that earlier! Silly sleepy brain.
Might what was i trying would work if I knew programming? Or because this is an “if” statement it wouldn’t combine with another “if” statement?
You can combine ‘if statements’. So you could have something like:
<?php if (function_exists( ‘breadcrumb_trail’ ) && !is_home() ) {
breadcrumb_trail( array( ‘separator’ => ‘»’ , ‘before’ => ”,’show_home’ => __(‘home’, ‘breadcrumb_trail’) ) );
}
if you didn’t want it to show on the home page, for example.

cool! I’m going to need to learn php. To my untrained eye it looks like the & ! makes an “and” statement become a ” is not” statement
! = “is not”
&& = “and”
|| = “or”
