Hello;

I have search the forum for similar issue but it seems the screenshots are returning 404 errors.

I WANT to use yoast breadcrumb instead of the built in breadcrumb, but it should be able to display on all pages just like the default.

Thanks

Hi,

In order to use the Yoast breadcrumbs and remove the theme’s you will first have to enable them from the plugin settings: http://screencast.com/t/qN2p9Ft2
Then you have to replace the code in the core files with the one provided by YOAST: http://kb.yoast.com/article/245-implement-wordpress-seo-breadcrumbs
There are multiple places breadcrumbs are added. You need to do this for every type of page/post/category where breadcrumbs are specified in the code. You need to make the same changes for pages and other templates to. If you want you can use an editor like Notepad++ and search in all files to see where the breadcrumbs are defined for each template and make the changes.
As an example, just for posts, you need to edit every post template you use and replace the code: http://screencast.com/t/ayW3UwAs1

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Admin –

Hello;

I can see single-template 1 to 13 am i going to change the code in all 13 files?

Unfortunately yes.
The theme does not have an option to use the yoast breadcrumbs instead of the theme ones so you will have to manually insert them in every file and every template you wish to use.
Thank you!
