Breadcrumb trails for WordPress pages

Breadcrumb Premium generates a linked navigation path for posts, pages and parent pages, archives, categories, tags, custom taxonomies and post types, author pages, date views, search pages, the WooCommerce shop, and product pages. Visitors can use the trail to see where they are within your site.

Place the trail and select where it appears

Add the [breadcrumb] shortcode to a supported layout or content area to set its placement. Premium visibility controls can hide breadcrumbs on the front page, home page, blog, author, search, year, month, date, category, and tag views. You can also conceal them by post type or individual post ID. ID rules support custom post types and other selected content.

Configure text and presentation

• Add custom prefix text and choose the separator text. You can hide the final separator.
• Show or hide the “Home” text.
• Limit link text by word count or character count, then set custom ending text.
• Set the link font size and the breadcrumb container’s margin and padding.
• Choose colors for link text, separators, and the link background.

Adapt output and translations

Filter and action hooks let developers rewrite or override breadcrumb elements without editing the plugin code. The extension is translation-ready and includes a default English translation file; you can add another translation when needed.

Installation and setup

Install and activate the extension from your WordPress dashboard, then configure the breadcrumb options. Add the shortcode where you want the trail to appear. Review it on relevant archive, post, taxonomy, and WooCommerce pages before applying page-specific visibility rules or custom styling.
