Add a Yoast Breadcrumb
Sometimes you have a different permalink set up than the breadcrumbs you want. For instance: http://yourdomain.com/seo-services The “seo-services” page is under the “services” section but you did not set it up as a child of the services page. Still, you want the breadcrumbs to indicate the proper parent. Example: Home > Services > SEO Services instead of: Home > SEO Services This plugin lets you do that. It has no settings but adds a side meta box to all your posts and pages (All post types) where you can choose the title and url to prepend to the breadcrumbs trail. Options are: -Append a breadcrumb after the first breadcrumb (Usually “Home”) -Prepend a breadcrumb to the last item in the breadcrumbs (the current page). A title and URL need to be entered for each pair in order for the breadcrumbs to be affected. You can create 2 new breadcrumbs or just one. Future Versions Change the page url field to use a drop down of current sites pages/posts instead of manually typing in the URL Add option to use the title of selected page or enter in the title manually to override (Manual is how it currently works) Please feel free to email me with bugs and/or suggestions.
Instant Breadcrumbs
Instant Breadcrumbs adds a breadcrumb trail to your WordPress blog’s primary navigation menu. No theme editing required! Including a breadcrumb trail on your site not only makes it easier for visitors to navigate your site, but also allows search engines to better explore your blog and include the breadcrumb information in rich snippet data in search results. Many breadcrumb plugins exist, but normally require either theme editing, or use of a theme that is already customized to include the breadcrumb function. In addition, editing the theme is usually followed by some CSS styling to make the breadcrumb trail match the overall ‘look’ of the site. Instant Breadcrumbs takes a different approach. Since breadcrumbs are a navigation aid, the generated trail is automatically added to the front of your existing primary navigation menu. This allows it to not only function straight out of the box with a large number of themes, but also use the existing styling of your primary navigation menu. A quick overview of Instant Breadcrumbs features: Works with both custom primary menus and the default ‘page’ menu generated by WordPress; Produces RDFa-compliant breadcrumb trails that may be used by Google and others in search results; Supports customization of the breadcrumb titles for pages such as the front page, archives, and search; Re-uses existing top-level entries in the primary menu to avoid repeated links; Includes CSS classes for added breadcrumbs for optional further styling if desired; Use the built-in breadcrumb generator, or third-party generators such as Yoast (WordPress SEO) and Breadcrumb NavXT, adding those to the nav menu without theme editing. Tested against Breadcrumb NavXT 5.1.0 and WordPress SEO 1.5.4.2; Supports HTML markup in post titles, with the option to disable it; “Manual” mode allows insertion into templates for themes that do not use the WordPress primary navigation menu; A widget is available if you would prefer to show the breadcrumb trail in a sidebar.
