Remove "popcorn trail" / page hierarchy from pages?

This hierarchy of pages is called “breadcrumbs”. Removing it will be theme specific. Could you indicate what theme you are you using and include a link to your site?

Umm… the site isn’t public yet, but the theme is “InHarmony”.

There is no support on www.remarpro.com for paid theme’s unfortunately. However, if you get in touch in the support forum for your theme, possibly here, I’m sure you’ll get this sorted out either through adjusting your theme settings or by adding some css to hide the breadcrumbs. Good luck!

Thanks.I am checking out there, but it looks to be rather inactive… so I thought I’d look here for more generic information.

I assume this is something that’s typically embedded in the theme itself then?

It will be theme specific. You will either have a setting to turn off breadcrumbs in your wp dashboard -> theme options, or you will need to identify the css class using firebug, and then add a display: none rule to that class in your style.css file after creating a child theme.

OK, sounds doable.

What is the purpose of creating a “child theme”? Is that insurance that I don’t mess up the original theme?

Barnez:

Just wanted to post thanks: I found the “breadcrumb” class in the source, traced it back to the style file, and shut off the display.

Working great.

Great to hear you traced the class and located it in the style file. The idea of the child theme is that you place all the theme modifications in there and then they are not overwritten when you update the theme in future. More info on child themes here. Best wishes with your site build!

Thanks for the child theme info. I will read up and do that… I preserved the original files, but having the overwrite protection is nice.
