It also gives you the ability to disable them completely so they no longer display. By changing the HTML surrounding your breadcrumbs, you’re able to provide better options for styling your breadcrumbs in different ways. For example, the default breadcrumbs simply display links with a separator character. Using Breadcrumbs for WooCommerce, you can change them to display as an unsorted list of links instead. NOTE: This plugin wont actually style your breadcrumbs for you. It simply gives you the tools to change the HTML that wraps around your breadcrumbs. #### Breadcrumbs for WooCommerce gives you the following settings * Breadcrumb separator: This is the separator to use between each breadcrumb * Wrap before: The opening HTML tag to wrap before all your breadcrumbs * Wrap after: The closing HTML tag to wrap after all your breadcrumbs * Before: The opening HTML tag to wrap before each individual breadcrumb * After: The closing HTML tag to wrap after each individual breadcrumb * Home text: The text to use for the ‘Home’ breadcrumb * Home URL: The URL that the ‘Home’ breadcrumb links to If need be, you can also disable the breadcrumbs completely by unticking the ‘Enable breadcrumbs’ checkbox. This will stop the breadcrumbs from displaying on your site. If you notice there are a few less breadcrumb options on the settings page than you expected, then you’re mostly likely using a WooThemes Theme. WooTheme themes disable the WooCommerce breadcrumbs in favour of the WooFramework Breadcrumbs. The downside to this is that there aren’t quite as many options that can be changed with the WooFramework Breadcrumbs. To see some examples of how you can style your WooCommerce Breadcrumbs, check out the [plugin homepage](http://maddisondesigns.com/breadcrumbs-for-woocommerce/). ## Screenshots * [[ * Breadcrumbs for WooCommerce default settings * [[ * Breadcrumbs for WooCommerce settings * [[ * Breadcrumbs for WooCommerce settings for WooTheme Themes ## Installation 1. Upload the ‘woocommerce-breadcrumbs’ folder to your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Go to the ‘Settings > Breadcrumbs for WC’ menu to update the plugin settings ## FAQ ### I’m not seeing as many options on my settings page as your screenshot You’re most likely using a WooThemes theme. WooTheme themes disable the WooCommerce breadcrumbs in favour of the WooFramework Breadcrumbs and unfortunately there aren’t as many options that can be configured. ### Can I disable the WooCommerce breadcrumbs? Certainly! On the settings page, simply untick the ‘Enable breadcrumbs’ checkbox and save your settings. ### How do I get my breadcrumbs back after disabling them? The easiest method is just to deactivate the plugin. Alternatively, simply tick the ‘Enable breadcrumbs’ checkbox and save your settings. ### Why don’t my breadcrumbs display properly when using the Storefront theme? Storefront wraps their breadcrumbs with some custom HTML. This means you need to tweak your ‘Breadcrumb separator’, ‘Wrap before’ and ‘Wrap after’ settings. See [this support post](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breadcrumbs-not-disabled/) for more details. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c9fa60dc0420de3af38370445b4ab794e9d2500b1591c224cff1434485b7693f? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-10675/)󠁿 [myeasymaster](https://profiles.wordpress.org/myeasymaster/) March 1, 2025 1 reply Simple and straight, just works as expected! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/bed362e9c0572b8862fec641a13f9361662be6f77db3a3d48bb5a013529b8d30? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excellent, it works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-it-works-4/)󠁿 [ftanger](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ftanger/) November 25, 2023 1 reply I added span tags with this plugin and it worked well ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5ca9d621a4a3d07f457a2ddbf101250c6fb2cc375258c0bcf60cadf6a83ee9b5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very helpful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-helpful-1078/)󠁿 [claraquin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/claraquin/) May 30, 2021 1 reply Easy to use. I just wanted to get rid of the breadcrumbs at all and have a woo-theme, so I did not have – as you said – many options to style them. But that is okay. Important for me was, to get rid of them. And this works very fine!
