[Plugin: Yoast Breadcrumbs] Display blog category instead of blog

I have the same problem….but in my created theme it shows a link to a post instead of the BLOG link! absurd…
But maybe it’s my fault…something to change in my theme…but what??

This is the problem :
https://neonewbie.altervista.org/misto/bread_probl.png
in the space between / / the plugin add a link to a post…why?

the address of this page is blogurl>category>shop

So..is it possible only to show: home / shop in breadcrumbs?

Thanks to all for the support

I also need to show at least the name of the blog category not just the word ‘blog’ as I have multiple categories for my blogs.

Ideally I want it to show the pages that have been followed to reach this blog post.

Any ideas ?

I solved my problem…
Just modified the yoast-breadcrumbs.php file in:

==================
line 211:
if ($on_front == “page”) {
$homelink = [ the same old stuff ]
$bloglink = $homelink;
}
else { [old stuff ] }……..
==================
line 222:
} elseif ( $on_front == “page” && is_home() ) {
$output = $homelink.’ ‘.$opt[‘sep’].’ ‘;
==================

In the control panel, in the admin page, I’ve checked “Show category in post breadcrumbs” to display all the path to the post in the blog

So I hope others with my same problem can solve!
Bye!

I just tried that and I’m still getting the same exact path to the post. In other words, still seeing Blog.

Did this finally get resolved ? Anyone else used Shaolin46’s method with success ?

thanks

Yes; my process was as follows

installed Yoast Breadcrumbs from the dashboard. FTP downloaded it locally, copied the folder (“breadcrumbs”) in windows explorer, pasted and renamed to “breadcrumbs-forked”.

Edited yoast-breadcrumbs.php as above (the line numbers were correct as of today). Additionally added ” FORKED” to the plugin name at the very top of the file. Saved.

FTP the new plugin back up, de-activate the old one if active, and activate the new one. No more “Blog” – now I get Home >> Category >> Post Title, and the link to the category is correct.
