    i have an issue that I’m currently searching for a solution, and i hope you could offer some help:

    when using Rank Math for setting my breadcrumb for my single listing page of a directory, the breadcrumb is: post type name (comic bookstore)>post name (ABC comic bookstore)>region (California)>city (SF), where the city is unclickable.

    What I want is: post type name (comic bookstore)>>region (California)>city (SF)>post name (ABC comic bookstore), where the post name is unclickable.

    In addition, what I found that might be the issue is that RankMath thinks the post name is city, for the reason that when I clicked “hide post title”, the city is hidden.

    I’d appreciate it if you could give me a few pointers on a solution…

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your breadcrumb structure in Rank Math. It seems like the plugin is currently treating the post name as the city, which is causing the undesired behavior in your breadcrumbs.

    To achieve the desired breadcrumb structure where the post name is unclickable and appears at the end, you can follow these steps:

    1. Hide Post Title: Since you mentioned that hiding the post title also hides the city, ensure that the post title is not set as the last element in your breadcrumb settings. You can do this by navigating to Rank Math Meta Box → Advanced Tab and checking the Hide Post Title option. However, since this is affecting your city display, we may need to adjust how the breadcrumbs are configured.

    2. Custom Breadcrumb Title: You can set a custom breadcrumb title for your post that will be displayed instead of the actual post title. This can be done in the same Advanced Tab where you can specify a shorter or different title that does not interfere with your breadcrumb structure.

    3. Adjusting Breadcrumb Settings: Go to Rank Math Dashboard → Breadcrumbs settings and ensure that you have configured the taxonomy and other settings correctly. You might want to check if there are any options related to how post types and taxonomies are displayed in breadcrumbs.

    4. Using Shortcodes: If you are comfortable with editing your theme files, you can manually add the breadcrumbs using the shortcode [rank_math_breadcrumb] in your template files, ensuring that you control the order of elements displayed.

    If these steps do not resolve your issue, we recommend replying to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from our support team can take a closer look at your specific setup and provide more tailored assistance.
