Why are breadcrumbs in my child project showing the (excluded) parent project path?

I have a merged project in RoboHelp 9. When I am running just the child project from that child project's index.htm, I still show the breadcrumbs from the parent project, and users can click on that breadcrumb and access the parent pages, which they are not supposed to do.

Unfortunately, I had already set up the merged project in the structure Parent>mergedProjects>child 1 before I read Peter Grainge's piece about using the fake parent with the redirect to the childs. Is the only way to remove my parent project breadcrumbs for me to start all over again and set them up as he described? it doesn't make sense to me that the parent would be showing in the child's breadcrumbs.

Thanks for the help!

Take a copy of a child project and save it somewhere else. Then it will function as a standalone piece of help. While it is in mergedProjects it is seeing the other content.

I don't normally use child projects in isolation but I see what you are reporting and it's not the way I believe it used to work going back to when Noah was a lad.

I will take this up with Adobe but meantime I think moving the child will work as you expect.

I have had this project working for almost two years now and before the last move to production in April, I do not remember this happening. The problem with what you suggest is that the parent project is actually in use as well. Having two copies of the child would seem to be redundant when they would both be on the same server: double the space for this small issue? Doesn't it also mean that the breadcrumbs would again be wrong if I set it up in your style so they would still say Home>Parent>Child1 where Parent would just be that blank page?

Do you know if this is the same in RoboHelp 10? I am in the process of converting to RoboHelp 10 and would like to resolve issues now, if I possibly can.

Thanks muchly for the help!
