by Clarus Dignus

Impressive. No child theme required.

This plugin adds the breadcrumb by selector (id or class) meaning you won’t need to create a child theme and manually input the code and can place the breadcrumbs anywhere. Very easy to use. Very flex

Easy and simple

Great lightweight plugin that won’t drag your page down.

by sebigbos

simple to use, working great

I´m just a user. Needs one minute to install and set up breadcrumbs where ever you want. Including a shortcode to post it within pages or posts. The support is fast, friendly and good. 5 stars!
