Overview

The Yoast Breadcrumb Shortcode plugin for WordPress allows users to easily implement Yoast SEO's breadcrumb functionality across their website using a simple shortcode.

The shortcode `[yoast-breadcrumb]` can be incorporated into various parts of the site, including posts, pages, and custom post types, and is compatible with Text widgets in supported themes. Users can customize the breadcrumb presentation by using the `before` and `after` parameters to define the HTML code that wraps the breadcrumb trail.

Users appreciate the plugin for its ease of installation, simple integration, and ability to seamlessly add breadcrumbs where the Yoast plugin falls short. It is particularly praised for making it easy to implement breadcrumbs via a shortcode, which helps users avoid complicated PHP code modifications. It proves useful for those using themes and editors that are otherwise incompatible with Yoast's PHP code. However, some users find it challenging to customize the appearance of the breadcrumbs due to the lack of built-in settings. They seek more customization options, such as background transparency and text color changes, and are requesting CSS code assistance to achieve these adjustments.

I like the idea of this plugin. It picks up where the Yoast plugin leaves off by adding breadcrumbs to the rest of your pages which Google is looking for. I just can’t get it running on WordPress 4.3.1.

Although adding the Yoast code to our theme wasn’t an issue however I didn’t like where the breadcrumbs appeard. A search found this handy little plugin. Perfect!

Super simple to install and add to any page or post. However, adding it manually instead of a sitewide setting can be bit of a problem. It would be nice to see some basic settings of customizing it, such as no background or background transparency, change text color etc. Can you please provide the CSS code to modify it? See an example of what we did: http://www.stressebook.com/blog/ This one was in the blog settings feature area, where you can add HTML, shortcodes or anything else to show up just below the header. <div class="breadcrumb"> <pre><code>[yoast-breadcrumb]</code></pre> </div> We can also add it within each blog post at the top of the post in the editor. We used the HTML tab instead of the View tab in the editor. Here is another example: http://www.stressebook.com/good-stress-engineer-qualities-part-4/
