    My breadcrumb code is working properly..it’s showing parent and child pages…but while the Home button is showing as an active link and the text is in Bold, the parent remains lowercase and non-active. I would like Home and the parent to be active links and I would like the child page to remain lowercase (and not a link) as an indicator to what page you are on. Thanks.

    <div id="breadcrumbs">You are here: <a href="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>">Home</a> >> <?$parent = $post->post_parent;
$parent_title = get_the_title($parent);echo($parent_title);  ?> >> <?php the_title(''); ?></div>

    Try something like:

    <div id="breadcrumbs">You are here: <a href="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>">Home</a> >>
<?php $parent = $post->post_parent;
$parent_title = get_the_title($parent);
echo '<a href="'.get_permalink($parent) .'">' . $parent_title .'">';  ?> >>
<?php the_title(''); ?></div>

    Your code tied the parent and the child together in one long link. But I saw what I needed to do and got it to work. Thanks for your help…

    <div id="breadcrumbs">You are here: <a href="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>">Home</a> >>
<?php $parent = $post->post_parent;
$parent_title = get_the_title($parent);
echo '<a href="'.get_permalink($parent) .'">' . $parent_title .('');  ?> </a> >>
<?php the_title(''); ?></div>
