    Hi, I have a blog with lot of items behind some pages.
    Like this: Home/Page01/Page02/Blog
    The BlogPage shows all the items.
    Till here the breadcrumbs are good and clickable.

    When I go to an BlogItem the breadcrumbs shows:
    Home >> Blog >> BlogItem
    So I miss the clickable >> Page01 >> Page02 >>
    between Home and Blog

    I know how to manually put these in the breadcrumb title area of the specific BlogItems but these aren’t clickable.

    How can I show the full path with clickable breadcrumbs?
    Hope you can show me a solution.

    Many thanks in advance!
    Roland

    Hello Maybellyne, thanks for the quick response.

    I created this dummy demo: https://studioonschuld.nl/page-01/
    When you click on all submenu items I hope you see what I mean how breadcrumbs shows.

    The post Blog Item 01 is under the full menu path this:
    Home > Page-01 > Page-02 > Blog > Blog Item 01

    The breadcrumb shows on the post Blog Item 01
    Home > Blog > Blog Item 01

    The same is for Blog. This is under the full menu path:
    Home > Page-01 > Page-02 > Blog

    And is shows:
    Home > Blog

    Thanks again,
    Roland

    Hello Roland,

    Here’s what I understand from the menu hierarchy:

    • Page 01 – a parent page
      • Page 02 – a child page of Page 01
      • Blog – category archive page
        • Blog Item 01 – a post

    You seem to mix up navigation menu items and breadcrumbs trail. These two are not exactly related. Your breadcrumbs are usually generated based on the site structure, while menu items are a list of links on your site. These few resources will help the differentiation:

    For the post, Blog Item 01, the breadcrumbs path will not be generated based on the hierarchy of the menu items (Home > Page 01 > Page 02 > Blog > Blog Item 01).

    Instead, it will be based on your site structure – Home > Blog > Blog Item 01. Blog Item 01 is a post, so it’s added to the category archive page, Blog, and the Blog is a page under Home (the homepage or start of the site).

    Items such as Page 01, Page 02 are not included in the path because they are pages and not connected to post, Blog Item 01. To help distinguish between WordPress Posts and Pages, you should find these articles very helpful:

    If you need further clarification, I’m happy to help!
