How to show category AND brand on breadcrumbs

Support
#1

Hi,

I need to set my breadcrumbs to show “SHOP NAME/CATEGORY/BRAND/PRODUCT”

With one of your tweak I managed to set the breadcrumbs to show only “SHOP NAME/CATEGORY/PRODUCT/” with this code on function.php

// Breadcrumbs Display Category Name
// =============================================================================

function get_breadcrumb_category( $cat ) {
   $post = get_post( $post->ID );
   $post_type = $post->post_type;
   $taxonomy = $cat;

   $f_categories = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, $taxonomy );
   $f_category = $f_categories[0];

   if ( $f_category->parent != 0 ) {
      $f_category_id    = $f_category->parent;
      $parent_array     = get_term_by('id', $f_category_id, $taxonomy, 'ARRAY_A');
      $f_category_name  = $parent_array["name"];
      $term_link        = get_term_link( $f_category_id, $taxonomy );
   } else {
      $f_category_id    = $f_category->term_id;
      $f_category_name  = $f_category->name;
      $term_link        = get_term_link( $f_category_id, $taxonomy );
   }

   if ( $f_categories && ! is_wp_error($f_categories) ) {
      return '<a href="' . $term_link . '">' . $f_category_name . '</a>';
   } else {
      return '';
   }
}

  }

}

Now, how can I resolve my problem?

Also, I need to change the Woocommerce permalink so I can se “/shop-name/%product_cat%/BRAND”. Can you explain me how can I do this? Because I can only set the permalink to “/shop-name/%product_cat%/”.

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

This is a bit complex since these aren’t part of Woocommerce by default at all (the brand). I recommend contacting a developer, customizing the permalinks is a bit tricky and could lead to broken rewrites that result to 404 pages.

The idea is rewrite the URL and pass the data through query_var, then check query_var to create proper custom query, then based on that query, compose the breadcrumbs.

Thanks!

Hi,

some updates: with a third-part plug-in I managed to set a permalink with the brand but there’s some design issues that makes me deactivate the plug-in itself. Also this create TWO “brand” voices in WooCommerc backend menu and I don’t really like it. Anyway, at least I know I can change permalink, somehow…

Regarding the breadcrumb structure, I know it is possible to achieve what I need to do,I read it on a post on your forum but I can’t find it no more :frowning_face:

Are you sure I can’t edit the function.php to show the brand base?

Thanks in advance

We’re sorry but this would require custom development. We do have an in-house custom development team that offer paid services, who may be able to assist. They can be contacted at [email protected] if this is of interest to you.

Thank you for your understanding.

I see…

Unfortunately the site is not mine, is for a client, and I’m preatty sure he won’t pay for this type of support.

I’ll find a way to fix this, maybe with Yoast… I don’t know.

Anyway, I’ll save this email in case I need support on my personal website :slight_smile:

Thanks again :slight_smile:
