2009-09-30 Update: This mod still works great as of vBulletin 3.8.3!

Since I just had to make the change myself and didn't see it posted here yet, I thought I would share a simple modification that was created by someone else a while back for an older vBulletin. I just tested it on my 3.7.0 site and assume it should continue to work for any 3.7.x build.

This change will add a slightly smaller version of the breadcrumb to an area just below the threads on showthread.php, and just below the forums on forumdisplay.php. See screenshots below for examples. Please only proceed if you're comfortable making manual template edits.

Instructions:

1. Locate the following in SHOWTHREAD template:

Code:

<if condition="$show['multiquote_global']">

2. Add just above:

Code:

    <!-- extra breadcrumb -->    
                <br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
                <tr valign="bottom">
                    <td><a href="#" onclick="history.back(1); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_back]" border="0" /></a></td>
                    <td>&nbsp;</td>
                    <td width="100%"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]</td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td class="navbar" style="font-size:7pt; padding-top:1px" colspan="3"><if condition="$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_ltr.gif" alt="" border="0" /><else /><a href="$scriptpath"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_ltr.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reload_this_page]" border="0" /></a></if> <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>
                </tr>
                </table>&nbsp
                <br />&nbsp
    <!-- / extra breadcrumb -->

3. Save SHOWTHREAD template and open FORUMDISPLAY template.

4. Locate the following in FORUMDISPLAY template:

Code:

<!-- / controls below thread list -->
</form>

5. Add the following just below that code:

Code:

    <!-- extra breadcrumb -->    
                <br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
                <tr valign="bottom">
                    <td><a href="#" onclick="history.back(1); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_back]" border="0" /></a></td>
                    <td>&nbsp;</td>
                    <td width="100%"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]</td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td class="navbar" style="font-size:7pt; padding-top:1px" colspan="3"><if condition="$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_ltr.gif" alt="" border="0" /><else /><a href="$scriptpath"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_ltr.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reload_this_page]" border="0" /></a></if> <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>
                </tr>
                </table>&nbsp
                <br />&nbsp
    <!-- / extra breadcrumb -->
