Breadcrumbs with wrong category when change in WP

    When I change the category of any post, breadcrumbs still show the old category. How can I update it?

    I’m implementing breadcrumbs via your PHP code:

    <?php
    if ( function_exists(‘yoast_breadcrumb’) ) {
    yoast_breadcrumb( ‘<p id=”breadcrumbs”>’,'</p>’ );
    }
    ?>

    I have already tried with Yoast Test Helper optimizations with no solution. The category that is shown by the theme is correct, in your breadcrumbs I see the first category i published the post with, changing it will nowt affet the change in the breadcrumbs.

    Versions
    – WordPress 5.6.1
    – Yoast 15.8.

    Thanks so much.

    I think I managed it.

    The breadcrumbs are updated only if I insert the article first in another category (which has a main category different from the current one) and then insert it back into the right one. This is an abnormal behavior of the Yoast plugin.

    Hi @monmansitaly,

    Thank you for the update. To see the latest changes to the breadcrumb path, does clearing your cache from caching plugins, the server, a CDN like Cloudflare, or the browser resolve the issue?

    If you are not sure how to clear the cache from a plugin, please contact the plugin author. If you’d like to clear the cache from the server, please speak to your host provider. To clear the cache from a browser, use this guide: How to clear your browser’s cache.

    Also, when you change the categories, Yoast SEO may need to update its data. If you go to SEO > Tools, does the SEO data optimization show as completed? If not, please click the button to run the process.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I don’t use a CDN, plus I don’t have any server or plugin cache when logged in. I tried to delete all navigation data (browser cache too) without finding the solution.

    When I cange the category, in Yoast Tools I always see: “SEO data optimization complete” and I can’t press the button because there is none at the moment.

    Do you have any other investigation ideas?
