Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
Please head over to your WP Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > Breadcrumbs > Show Category(s) and disable this option.
This will essentially hide the parent categories from the breadcrumbs.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Hi Michael,
I’ve tried but it didn’t work 🙁
Maybe it didn’t work because “Product” is not a parent category, it’s the Custom Post Type base link…
Have you any other idea? Maybe I should use some filter from https://rankmath.com/kb/filters-hooks-api-developer/?
Thanks again 🙂
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
Yes this is also an option. You can use the following filter but it will need to be customized further to remove the breadcrumb items:
/**
* 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.
Yes, I know it need to be customized… that’s why I asked for help 🙂
Do you think you can help me and provide the code needed to remove CPT Base link? Or at least a complete example of this filter?
Thanks again 🙂
Hi there,
Thanks for the follow up.
Here is an example for illustration to remove the second item on the post 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, $class ) {
// check if we are viewing single posts
if(is_singular('post')){
//Unset elements with key 1
unset($crumbs[1]);
$crumbs = array_values($crumbs);
return $crumbs;
}
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
I hope this info helps. Thank you.
Yes, it helps me a lot 🙂
Thank you very much, this is exactly what I needed!
