The easiest way to prevent the breadcrumb trail from showing up on a page is to surround the call to bcn_display() with an if statements that checks against the appropriate conditional tag. In this case, you probably want to use something like the following for your calling code:

<?php if(function_exists('bcn_display') && !is_category() && !is_tag() && !is_tax()):?>
<div class="breadcrumbs" typeof="BreadcrumbList" vocab="https://schema.org/">
    <?php bcn_display();?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

This is due to a problem in the Russian translation. Both are caused by a single incorrectly translated string, likely due to it not getting updated (.org is serving a fuzzy translation which isn’t good). The problem is %1$s was replaced with %htitle% which causes the error.

For the templates and other HTML accepting settings, only certain HTML tags are allowed by default. SVG is not currently one of them. I’ll look at adding SVG to the allowed HTML elements for the next version. In the meantime, you can enable SVG using the bcn_allowed_html filter. This article provides an example of how to add a tag to the allowed set of HTML tags: https://mtekk.us/archives/guides/how-to-add-li-and-other-tags-to-breadcrumb-templates/

On the single custom post type posts, what does the page linked to by “Cakes” have for its breadcrumb trail? By default, this should just work (it does on my testbed and my website for the CPTs I’m using)—the breadcrumb trail for the archive page for a CPT isn’t really affected by the settings for the CPT (beyond the root page setting, but that shouldn’t be applicable for this situation).

For the two pages pictured, it would really help to see the actual HTML generated by Breadcrumb NavXT for the breadcrumb trail.

Can you post the markup generated by Breadcrumb NavXT on that page (a picture or pastebin or something)?

Honestly, it’s going to be easier to use a custom post type for you news entries and let the built-in WordPress Post (post type) be for just blog entries. See https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/ and https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Types#Custom_Post_Types for more information on Custom Post Types. Then with the News CPT, set the “Root Page” to your “News” page in the Breadcrumb NavXT settings. For the Blogs page, simply set that as the page for posts in the WordPress settings (Settings > Reading). At that point you can individually control the hierarchy used for the two different post types representing the two different sections (you can still use the category taxonomy for both post types if you want).

I’m a little confused by your request. On the page that you linked to that is using Breadcrumb NavXT, the icon is being added via CSS rather HTML markup (via modifying the home template settings for Breadcrumb NavXT). As it stands, you won’t be able to add a class to your icon as long as it is added via CSS. I recommend switching to using the Home template in the Breadcrumb NavXT settings page to add the icon. It should be as simple as adding the HTML markup for an image (e.g. an img tag) to the Home Template and Home Template (unlinked) settings. The following article discusses how to modify the template to include the icon: https://mtekk.us/archives/guides/use-an-iconimage-for-the-home-breadcrumb/
