Breadcrumb Questions

[flyingvgroup]

Hi, I have two questions regarding breadcrumbs that I added underneath my second bar on secondary pages using the header editor, like seen on this page: https://www.flyingvgroup.com/2017/11/30/how-to-write-an-seo-friendly-blog-post-three-steps-to-consider/

Here are my issues:

1. As seen on this page, the breadcrumb displays Blog->Post Title. The article is a post. My issue is that I created a custom page to serve as my blog page. See https://www.flyingvgroup.com/migration-blog. I do not want to set this as the reading page because I will lose the formatting of the page which is using Essential Grid, but I do want the Migration Blog URL to replace the ‘Blog’ breadcrumb, which currently just sends the user back to the home page since no blog page is set. The breadcrumb would end up looking like Migration Blog->Post Title
   
   
2. How do I get the category to display in the breadcrumb? I’d prefer Migration Blog->Category Name->Post Title Or even Migration Blog->Category->Category Name->Post Title

Thanks so much!

Hi there,

Both of those requests need deep customization of the code which is outside of our support scope. You will need to hire a developer to create the feature for yourself.

The help that we can offer is to show the place that the breadcrumbs are generated. Go to:

wp-content/themes/pro/framework/functions/global/breadcrumbs.php

and copy the x_breadcrumbs function to the functions.php file of your Child Theme. Now you or your developer will be able to safely do the changes to the Breadcrumbs code without changing the core of the theme.

Thank you.
