 * Is there any way of categorizing pages in breadcrumbs if those pages are not 
   using a parent page.
 * For example, I have pages on fruits and vegetables. And I also have pages on 
   apples, oranges, and pears. I don’t want to use fruits as a parent page for apples,
   oranges, and pears as I want to keep the URL structure as flat as possible.
 * But I’d like a breadcrumb to be site > fruits > apples
 * Any way of doing this?
 * Thanks. Best rdfa breadcrumb plugin by far.

 * Honestly, this is where a Custom Post Type should be considered. You gain much
   more control and flexibility and they’re likely to be more semantically correct.
   The page post type is a ‘special’ post type for Breadcrumb NavXT since it can
   be the root for any other post type (e.g. blog page, or CPT root). To avoid hierarchy
   loops, it can only use the post-parent relationship for it’s hierarchy. Within
   Breadcrumb NavXT, Custom Post Types can use any taxonomy, post-parent, or dates
   as their hierarchy.
