I know I have asked before , when on forum on my phone , bottom of page the home button takes you to Plusnet home ! Not to the forum start page 😕
Its not a major bug but would be nice to get it fixed 😉

Are you referring to the symbol of the house? Unless I’m mistaken that takes me to main community page as I expect it should do.

@Gandalf yes the little House , as you say it take you to the main community page , but it would be better if it took you to the Forum Start page , i know its only one Click away but to me it makes more sense home being here https://community.plus.net/t5/Forum/ct-p/Forum

as apposed to here

The house icon is always the homepage of the forums on mobile. It is replacing the text in the first link of the breadcrumbs with a house icon and I cannot change this.

On large screen devices, you will see all sub levels of the breadcrumb and text for the current location - these get hidden on smaller screens as well the the unlinked current location text. What remains is simply the 'forum home' link and the 'back up one level' links. I am afraid that I cannot change how any of this works.

I am afraid that it can't be changed. The bread crumbs follow the structure and are reused for other areas, like the blog, that sit on second level of navigation. The forum also sits at the second level of the menu structure. There are also a lot of other types of second level pages that are currently not in use but will be activated in the near future.

Edit: Just an FYI - If the Community was just the forum component and nothing else then I can and would change it but this isn't the case. Breadcrumbs are used in other components so its not possible really.
