Hi

My breadcrumbs look this this

Home > One > Two > Three > Four

I would like to remove One and Two, which I have done as follows:

add_filter( ‘rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items’, function( $crumbs, $class ) {
$crumbs[1] = null;
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

add_filter( ‘rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items’, function( $crumbs, $class ) {
$crumbs[2] = null;
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);

However, this leaves the breadcrumbs looking like this:

Home > > > Three > Four

Is there a filter I can use to remove the redundant separators?

Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

In this case, you may need to use unset for the breadcrumbs instead. Assigning null will return an empty value, leaving the separator.

Using unset will remove the specific breadcrumb totally with the separator.

Could you please try using this filter instead?
```
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
       unset($crumbs[1]);
       unset($crumbs[2]);
       return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
```
Let us know how this goes.

Thank you.

Hi

That kind of worked, but left me with this:

Home » Three » Four »

Four is hyperlinked, and it has a trailing >>

Hello,

Thank you for your patience as we look into how to adjust your breadcrumbs.

I have modified the code snippet to the one below:
```
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
  if (count($crumbs)== 5){
    $crumbs[1]=$crumbs[3];
    $crumbs[2]=$crumbs[4];
    unset($crumbs[3]);
    unset($crumbs[4]);
}

return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
```
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.
