[SharePoint 2013] Restore the Breadcrumb (Navigate Up) Navigation Part 2

Since posting my initial [SharePoint 2013] Restore the Breadcrumb (Navigate Up) Navigation article, I have had a few requests for a packaged solution.

Here is a complete packaged solution to restore the breadcrumb navigation control in a Web Application scoped feature.

RestoreBreadcrumb.wsp – Packaged SharePoint solution ready to deploy to a SharePoint Farm.

RestoreBreadcrumb Source – Source code for the SharePoint solution.

Hi John: I tried to deploy the wsp solution in SP2013 thru 365 and it would not work.

  Hi Wendy, delegate controls are not supported in the Sandboxed SharePoint solutions. In order to restore the control in O365 you would need to edit the master page to do it. And then apply that edited master page to all sites in the site collections.

Works great! Customer just asked me how to get breadcrumbs back. Your solution gave them what they needed.

Hi John! When I tried to add the WSP to the SharePoint (Enterprise) Farm Solution library, I get a “Add-SPSolution : Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.”

Any idea why?
Thank you

  Is it already on the farm? (Do you see it on the Farm Solutions page in Central Admin?)
