    Hello!

    I have activated the breadcrumbs on my website and they have been created with the following structure

    Home / Category / Post

    Which would be perfect if I didn’t want to remove the slug “/category/”.

    In my case it is not possible to go to “General settings / Links / Remove category base” because with SEO strategy I use a page as a category as I am adding content to it.

    So I ask if it is possible for the breadcrumb to remove the /category/ from the link.

    Example links:

    The “dead” URL as a category that I don’t use – https://psicorevista.com/category/duelo/
    The effective URL as a category – https://psicorevista.com/duelo/
    The URL of a post within the category – https://psicorevista.com/duelo/duelo-infantil/

    So I want the breadcrumb URLs to look like this:
    psicorevista.com | psicorevista.com/duelo/ | psicorevista.com/duelo/duelo-infantil/

    and NOT like this:
    psicorevista.com | psicorevista.com/category/duelo/ | psicorevista.com/duelo/duelo-infantil/

    Is it possible to make a change to remove the /category/ from the breadcrumb?
    I hope I have explained myself correctly

    Thank you very much in advance

    Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Please use the following filter to remove the category base from the breadcrumb URLs:

    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
	if(strpos($crumbs[1][1], 'category/')) {
		$crumbs[1][1] = str_replace('category/', '', $crumbs[1][1]);
		return $crumbs;
	}
	return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

    Here is how to add a filter to your site: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/

    Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
