# Using navigation module (breadcrumbs)

To display navigational breadcrumbs indicating the user's location within the contest hierarchy (Home > Contests > Category > Contest > Entry), use the core Joomla Breadcrumbs module.

NorrCompetition natively integrates with Joomla's pathway API and is 100% compatible with the core Breadcrumbs site module (`mod_breadcrumbs`), without requiring third-party navigation plugins.

## Configuration

1. In Joomla Administrator, navigate to **Content > Site Modules** (or **System > Site Modules**).
2. Locate the existing **Breadcrumbs** module or click **New > Breadcrumbs**.
3. On the **Menu Assignment** tab, set module assignment to **On all pages** (or select your NorrCompetition menu items).
4. Assign the module to your template's breadcrumbs or navigation position (e.g. `breadcrumbs` or `top`).
5. Save the module.

NorrCompetition automatically generates dynamic pathway items across Categories, Contests, Entries, and Contestant Profile views.
