Hi everyone! Right now because of the PHP 8 deadline in less than a full business week, tech is unable to tackle all but the most pressing bugs immediately.
To be up front all of you, I know how super annoying this specific problem is, because I also use breadcrumbs a lot, but it's looking like it will be fixed after Thanksgiving, unfortunately.
The workarounds I've been using have been the "Back to Subforum" button at the bottom of the page and the forum jump menu (also at the bottom of the page). I know these are not perfect, but I'm hoping it makes life a little easier.

I'm sure that IB staff will respond this week following the long holiday weekend. There's no need to keep asking 
Thanks.

I noticed this a while ago but only got around to posting it now.
The breadcrumb navigation tool at the top of every page is missing a separator between the thread name and the sub-forum
Here's the example for this very thread:
Funnily enough when I paste it here, yes the newline characters exist at the end of the respective sub-forum links. So it's there, just not rendering correctly in the browser.
Also, this means that the sub-forums are no longer clickable so you can't navigate back to the sub-forum when finished reading a thread.

So this forum link thing is really starting to bother me - I have no shortcut to get back to the forum root from a thread by clicking the forum title that was once a link. Now it's just black text without the hyperlink function

Top navigation also broken, everywhere. These used to be links, to go back to the parent. Now just bold text. I need to go all the way back to the main forums list to go from good to bad OMNI.

While waiting for the top navigation to be fixed, there is a working Back to Subforum link at the bottom left of the page.

Where did the "back" button links disappear to?
If I was on AA''s sub-forum there used to be a link at the top to take me "back" to the Airline forum and quickly navigate to BA, etc. Basically the links were a step back in the forum directory.
They have been gone for a couple of weeks now.
Now, I have to click "Directory" and I have to go manually find the Airline forum....then click BA.
There are no links here anymore.
