Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
This seems to be an issue with the Add to Categories plugin. The categories don’t seem to show up even with Rank math deactivated. Please get in touch with the Add to Categories Team for them to help you with this.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
That plugin is not compatible by default with Rank Math (due to it adds categories to pages, which is not the usual WordPress behaviour), but I have coded for you a little snippet to make it compatible.
Just add it at the end of the functions.php file in your active theme:
/**
* Allow Breadcrumbs compatibility with the 'Add Category to Pages' plugin
*
* @param array $crumbs The crumbs array.
* @param Breadcrumbs $this Current breadcrumb object.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
$ret = $crumbs;
if(is_page()){
$categories = get_the_category();
if (!empty($categories)) {
$mainCategory = array(
"0"=>esc_html($categories[0]->name),
"1"=>esc_url(get_category_link($categories[0]->cat_ID)),
"hide_in_scheme"=>false
);
array_splice($ret, 1, 0, array($mainCategory));
}
}
return $ret;
}, 10, 2);
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Amazing, thank you @Alberto! This just saved me days of work because unfortunately it isn’t easy to change the post type with Oxygen based pages. You should add this to your developer FAQ 🙂
