Breadcrumb issue

Posted in: Newspaper

When I first set up my site I had breadcrumbs following the category hierarchy i.e. Home > Parent Category > Child > Article Title

However now I have set up parent/child pages as the hierarchy and therefore would like this to be the breadcrumb structure instead : Home > Parent page > Child Page > Article Title

It seems that the latter breadcrumb structure is being followed if using the main menu navigation, however, it still shows the child categories I previously used

What is the quickest fix for this? i.e, breadcrumbs to follow the page hierarchy only and not include the categories?

I basically want the post pages breadcrumbs link to a page not categories

Hi,

Maybe a plugin might work if you require a different breadcrumb implementation. Theme uses standard breadcrumb functionality. So you could disable the theme breadcrumbs and use a plugin to display the custom breadcrumbs. Maybe something like this if it works properly with the theme

Hi,

According to the instruction the code has to be entered in the header.php file of the theme

Or try entering in the actual header template you use for the website, see how they display

Enter the code below the existing code and check the results.

Thanks
