Hi all,
I need help about a question which I have proposed some day ago in Stack Overflow forum, at the moment I’ve no receive answers hope someone here will help me.
I’ve a controller with 3 actions for a simple procedure in 3 steps, my idea is to have breadcrumbs like
Home page / Step1 / Step2 / Step3
each view have
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = 'StepX';
and the layout/main.php
Breadcrumbs::widget([
'links' => isset($this->params['breadcrumbs']) ? $this->params['breadcrumbs'] : [],
])
However in every view the breadcrumbs are respectively for Step1, Step2 and Step3
Home page / Step1
Home page / Step2
Home page / Step3
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

If you want more breadcrumbs, you have to add more:
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = 'Step 1';
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = 'Step 2';
$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = 'Step 3';

Ok, but the view’s params isn’t shared among the view template?

They are only shared between views in one action/request. Once you start a new action, the params are "reset".

Now everything is clear, then, for share between distinct views, the only way is using session, right?

Try to think in terms of requests or actions, not views. And yes, sessions allow you to share data between them.
