We just launched a WP Limits Twitter account. It will feature short (140 characters or less!) tips on WordPress or links to other great articles. Don’t worry, we won’t update more than once per day, so we won’t be spamming your account. Lots of great resources coming!
Make sure to follow the account here: http://twitter.com/wplimits
If you have any ideas to contribute we would greatly appreciate it as well!
Using a plugin is the most common way to create breadcrumb navigation. The most popular plugin is Breadcrumb NavXT Though this is a functional plugin, it is not the best (too many database queries as well as having to include a plugin with your theme is rather clunky).

Details how to do it in a simple, efficient way. It may not have as many features, but it gets the job done.
This is a great little bit of code. What it does is create static home page link in your navigation that you could place before your wp_list_pages code, to have an active state on your home page link. This way you can use css to style the “current_page_item” class like for any other page. Here’s the code:
[sourcecode language='php']
<li class="page_item “><a href="”>Home
[/sourcecode]
Hello all, welcome to our first Friday Tip.
Today we have a wonderfully put together WordPress reference or cheat sheet. In the three days since I have discovered it, it has already proved to be a very valuable resource. Spend some time just reading through it and you will learn more about specific tags and hopefully think of new ways to use them to push the limits!
