Putting fondant directly on the cake can lead to air bubbles, premature drying, and cracks. Before you put the fondant on, add a layer of buttercream or marzipan to your cake, then put the fondant on top of it. The moisture will hold it together perfectly! You can do this anyway, it won't affect the look of the cake.
This will also make your cake taste better! Many people dislike fondant because of its weak taste, but a hidden layer of frosting will sweeten your cake. Check your fondant for air bubbles, rough spots, and thickness. Most cracks happen because of a problem with the fondant itself.
Rough spots can be massaged gently with a finger dipped in shortening. Use your fondant immediately after making it. Treat dry fondant with oil before you put it on. Did you make this recipe?

If you already threw away the scraps before you noticed the crack, you can make a small batch by cutting your fondant recipe into quarters.
Coat your fingers or an icing knife in oil or shortening. Get your index and middle fingers thoroughly coated in vegetable oil or shortening. Rub the fondant patch into the surface. Place the patch over the crack and gently massage the edges into the fondant with your oiled fingers.
Just gently rub the patch in until the edges blend in with the fondant surface. This is why I don't recommend using a perishable filling that needs refrigeration if you are also decorating the cake.
