Breadcrumb Widget Pro

Breadcrumb Trail

– Trail Mode: Automatic — builds the trail from the current post, page, or WooCommerce product context automatically. Choose the source explicitly (Post / Page / Product) or leave it on “Auto-detect.”
– Toggle “Show Category” to include the post/product category (with parent categories) in the trail.
– Toggle “Show Parent Pages” to include ancestor pages for hierarchical Pages.
– Toggle “Show Current Item” to include/exclude the current page title as the last crumb.
– Trail Mode: Manual — add, reorder, or remove trail items yourself in the repeater. Leave the last item’s link empty, and it becomes the non-clickable “current” item.

Home Link

– Rename the label, set a custom URL, and optionally show an icon before (or instead of) the text.

Separator

– Text/symbol (e.g.,>, /, •), an icon from Elementor’s icon library, or an uploaded SVG.

SEO

– Toggle JSON-LD BreadcrumbList structured data output (on by default) — helps Google show your breadcrumb trail directly in search results.

Style settings

– Layout — space between items, alignment.
– Typography — font family/weight/size/color for items, plus a separate color for the current (non-link) item.
– Links — link color, hover color, hover underline on/off.
– Separator — color and size (works for text, icon, and SVG).
– Item Box — background color, padding, border (style/width/color), border radius, and box shadow — useful if you want each crumb to look like a small pill/chip.

Notes on the SVG separator option

WordPress blocks SVG uploads by default for security (an SVG can carry embedded script). This plugin re-enables SVG uploads in the Media Library so the “Custom SVG Upload” separator option works. Only give Media Library upload access to trusted admins/editors. If you’d rather not loosen this site-wide, remove the upload_mimes filter in breadcrumb-widget-pro.php and instead install a dedicated SVG-sanitizing plugin (e.g., “Safe SVG”) — the widget’s Media control will still work with whatever SVG upload path you use.
