Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Please note that adding a non-existing parent page may confuse the search engine. However, if you do wish to remove the breadcrumbs link, kindly refer to this filter code here and insert it in your theme’s functions.php file:
/**
* 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 ) {
$crumbs[1][1] = null;
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Hi Jeremy!
Thank you for your reply. I copied the code, it did deactivate the link but only in the blog section (so now Blog is not active). Is there a way to target only a specific ID with the function? I don’t want to unlink the Blog page.
Thanks!
Hello,
Please use the following filter:
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items', function( $crumbs, $class ) {
global $post;
if($post->ID == '') { //ID OF THE POST
$crumbs[1][1] = null;
return $crumbs;
}
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
Hi Jaideep,
thank you for your reply. I’ve added this code then:
add_filter( ‘rank_math/frontend/breadcrumb/items’, function( $crumbs, $class ) {
global $post;
if($post->ID == ‘7180’) { //ID OF THE POST
$crumbs[1][1] = null;
return $crumbs;
}
return $crumbs;
}, 10, 2);
But it seems it’s not working as nothing happens
Hello,
Please share the URL of the post for which you have applied the code so we can check and assist you further.
Looking forward to helping you.
Thanks.
Thank you Jaideep,
in the end the SEO specialist decided for a redirect. So we sorted it out like that.
But I will definitely use your code on another website and let you guys know if I have any problems.
Thank you for your time!
Have a good day
