How to remove base of woocommerce from breadcrumbs

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

It does not look like your store is using WooCommerce, is this correct?
I have tested single products on my end but the “products” crumb item is never added by default.
If you have a custom products post type, then you will need to come up with some custom code to remove this item using the following filter:

/**
 * Allow changing or removing the Breadcrumb items
 *
 * @param array       $crumbs The crumbs array.
 * @param Breadcrumbs $this   Current breadcrumb object.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
	return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply.

The code will need to be customized further to work as expected.
Here is some sample code to remove the second item from the breadcrumbs:

/**
 * Allow changing or removing the Breadcrumb items
 *
 * @param array       $crumbs The crumbs array.
 * @param Breadcrumbs $this   Current breadcrumb object.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
	if(is_product() && isset($crumbs[1])){
		unset($crumbs[1]);
		$crumbs = array_values($crumbs);
		return $crumbs;
	}
	return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

I hope this info helps. Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for getting back to us.

We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

We really look forward to helping you.

Hi there,

Thanks for the follow up.

I have modified the code to the following :

/**
 * Allow changing or removing the Breadcrumb items
 *
 * @param array       $crumbs The crumbs array.
 * @param Breadcrumbs $this   Current breadcrumb object.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
	if(is_product() || is_product_category()){
		unset($crumbs[1]);
		$crumbs = array_values($crumbs);
		return $crumbs;
	}
	return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

Regarding the second problem, this link is affected because the product shares the same name as one of your product categories “Pallet Cushion”. You will need to either change the name of the category or the product to fix this.

I hope this info helps 🙂
