4. Can you confirm you implemented the Yoast breadcrumbs using this guide: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/implement-wordpress-seo-breadcrumbs/

Yes confirmed, but for some reason the actual page you′re at does not display. And I now how to implement it. But can not figurate out why, so I assume it’s an issue in Yoast with CPT. As I tried 3 of your competitors and all worked just fine with breadcrumbs in the php templates of the cpt’s. So have nailed it down to be Yoast.

I was unable to recreate the issue with a custom created CPT.

Post breadcrumb: Home ? Blog ? Post Title or Home ? Post Title
CPT breadcrumb: Home ? CPT Archive ? CPT Title or Home ? CPT Title

The difference between the two breadcrumbs is whether or not an archive page exists. The blog archive page is selected under Admin > Settings > Reading > Your homepage displays (choose ‘A static page’ and a ‘Posts page’). The CPT archive is defined in the CPT setup. But in both cases, the title of the actual page you are at is included in the breadcrumb.

All of the testing was done with a default theme and using the [wpseo_breadcrumb] shortcode so I didn’t have to modify theme files.

This does further seem to be something specific to the CPT setup or the CPT template. Is there anything custom about how the CPT was setup? Is this a CPT that is part of a plugin that’s available in the free repo so I can test further?

Okay, but it still does not work for me.

Using shortcode eon individual pages is neither an option but I have tried that too to make sure it wasn’t a glitch in the function call.

No CPT is set up as per WordPress standard with code and not plugin.

Just a part of the cpt.php file for one cpt type which is called form the function.php

Service true or false is no different. But essential the parent shows correctly and we do not use archive page type. The issue is the breadcrumbs strings are not correctly displayed.

This is how it looks where it does not display the actual page title.

Home ? CPT parent ?

add_action(
	'init',
	function() {
		register_post_type(
			'example',
			[
				'label' => __( 'Example', 'wptemplate' ),
				'has_archive' => false,
				'public' => true,
				'show_ui' => true,
				'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-store',
				'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
				'supports' => [
					'title',
					'thumbnail',
					'editor',
				],
				'rewrite' => [
					'slug' => 'example-url',
				],
				'menu_position' => 21,
			]
		);

The code above doesn’t have a parent-child relationship (hierarchy is true and supports page-attributes) so I’m not sure what you mean by CPT parent shows correctly.

Adding these two options and the missing closing tags in the example code, I created two items; one titled Parent and one titled Child and set the parent page of the child to the parent item.

Breadcrumb show as
Parent page: Home ? Parent
Child page: Home ? Parent ? Child

We think the issue is specific to your site and/or setup. We’d need to investigate further but are unable to do so on these forums. You can?purchase Yoast SEO Premium?to receive our premium email support where we can help you further.
