 * Hi Yoast Team,
 * I have been searching online for hours, but cannot find a straight answer to 
   my question.
 * In order to have only the primary category in the product breadcrumbs and URL,
   do you need to have the premium Yoast plugin, or the paid Woocommerce Yoast plugin?
   Or should this option work with the free version straight out of the box?
 * Kind regards
    Stacy

 * Hello Stacy!
 * You need to have the Yoast WooCommerce SEO plugin to show the primary category
   in the product breadcrumbs.
 * Just an FYI, Yoast WooCommerce SEO is an extension of either Yoast SEO Premium
   or Yoast SEO (free version). Depending on your needs, you can use just the Yoast
   WooCommerce SEO and Yoast SEO (free version) but there are features in the Yoast
   SEO Premium plugin that you might need as well. Please go through the list of
   Yoast SEO Premium features for you to determine if you need them or not. You 
   can find a comparison between Yoast SEO and Yoast SEO Premium [here](https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/).
 * If you decide to purchase both Yoast WooCommerce SEO and Yoast SEO Premium, you
   can purchase the Yoast WooCommerce Premium bundle so you’ll save 20%. You can
   do so [here](https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/yoast-woocommerce-premium-bundle/).
