Breadcrumbs php location in theme files, where?

Hi @artgoddess,

I recommend you never add it directly to a theme file and instead use hooks to do what you want.

A good way would be with the the_title filter. I got an example for you from ChatGPT (but I would only recommend you add it if you know how the code works to keep your site reliable and safe):

function add_breadcrumb_before_title($title, $id = null) {
  if (is_page() && $id) { // Adjust conditions as needed
    $breadcrumb = do_shortcode('[my_shortcode_name]');
    return $breadcrumb . ' ' . $title;
  }
  return $title;
}
add_filter('the_title', 'add_breadcrumb_before_title', 10, 2);

Thank you @foosantos, this solution has a strange effect, it mixes the menu and the breadcrumbs.

In fact, I am using a child theme, and I have copied only this php snippet of code into my header.php child theme file:

<div id="content" class="site-content">
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<main id="main" class="site-main">
	<?php
	if ( !is_front_page() && function_exists('saswp_render_breadcrumbs_html') ) {
		echo do_shortcode( '[saswp-breadcrumbs]' );
	} ?>

But the behaviour is really strange, as I have stated in other thread.

Thank you for any assistance you may provide.

I have tried with other breadcrumbs plugins. The result is the same. This issue is related to the Twenty Twenty-One theme or the Twentig plugin. Any assistance would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Ok, location is at the very bottom of: template-parts/header/site-nav.php of my twenty-twenty child theme file. Thank you.

Hi @artgoddess, thank you for sharing how you did it!

Small note that if there are updates on this file of the parent theme, you would need to update this manually — that’s the reason that I recommend you to use hooks, as it would still work even after updates.

Thank you, @foosantos, I’m afraid I’m not a developer, and I don’t know how to create the hook for this scenario.

If anybody is open to sharing a correct snippet of code, that would be great. Thanks again.
