I'm using Yoast Breadcrumbs plugin and I have got a number of blog categories in my blog which also contains press releases and official news, for example and for a page like this:
My Breadcrumb trail appears as this:
You are here: Home » Blog » Lani Ramos – New Orleans’ Funk Rock Chick
I don't want that. I want it to list the blog category and not the blog name itself unless it is the blog category itself. How can I correct this? Or is there some other breadcrumb plugin I can use?

I have the same problem....but in my created theme it shows a link to a post instead of the BLOG link! absurd...
But maybe it's my fault...something to change in my theme...but what??
This is the problem :

in the space between / / the plugin add a link to a post...why?
the address of this page is blogurl>category>shop
So..is it possible only to show: home / shop in breadcrumbs?
Thanks to all for the support

I also need to show at least the name of the blog category not just the word 'blog' as I have multiple categories for my blogs.
Ideally I want it to show the pages that have been followed to reach this blog post.
Any ideas ?

I solved my problem...
Just modified the yoast-breadcrumbs.php file in:
==================
line 211:
if ($on_front == "page") {
$homelink = [ the same old stuff ]
$bloglink = $homelink;
}
else { [old stuff ] }........
==================
line 222:
} elseif ( $on_front == "page" && is_home() ) {
$output = $homelink.' '.$opt['sep'].' ';
==================
In the control panel, in the admin page, I've checked "Show category in post breadcrumbs" to display all the path to the post in the blog
So I hope others with my same problem can solve!
Bye!

I just tried that and I'm still getting the same exact path to the post. In other words, still seeing Blog.

Did this finally get resolved ? Anyone else used Shaolin46's method with success ?

re: joncjones
Yes; my process was as follows
installed Yoast Breadcrumbs from the dashboard. FTP downloaded it locally, copied the folder ("breadcrumbs") in windows explorer, pasted and renamed to "breadcrumbs-forked".
Edited yoast-breadcrumbs.php as above (the line numbers were correct as of today). Additionally added " FORKED" to the plugin name at the very top of the file. Saved.
FTP the new plugin back up, de-activate the old one if active, and activate the new one. No more "Blog" - now I get Home >> Category >> Post Title, and the link to the category is correct.
