What’s new in Divi Breadcrumbs 1.4.5
Version 1.4.5 · Oct 5, 2023
Latest
- FixedSome parent categories were not linked for breadcrumbs on a category page
What it does
On a site with many pages, posts and categories, visitors can lose track of where they are. A breadcrumb trail fixes that by showing the chain of parent pages or categories above the current content, with each step linked. This plugin brings that trail to Divi and Extra sites and works without a settings page, so breadcrumbs start appearing once the plugin is active. It also gives search engines a clearer view of how your content types relate to each other.
The plugin is built to stay light. It uses the icon set that already ships with your theme instead of loading its own assets, which keeps extra files off your pages. When you want the trail to match your design, you adjust font styles, sizes and layout in the WordPress Customizer. It handles pages, posts, projects and custom post types, and it accounts for taxonomies such as categories automatically, including linking parent categories on category pages.
Best for
- Divi theme sites with deep page or category structures
- Blogs and magazines built on the Extra theme
- Freelancers and agencies building client sites with Divi
Features
Works with Divi and Extra
Built for the Divi and Extra themes, so the breadcrumb trail fits in with the styling of sites made on either theme.
No configuration needed
There is no settings screen to work through. Breadcrumbs begin showing on your site as soon as the plugin is turned on.
Uses built-in theme icons
Draws on the icon set already included in your theme, which avoids loading additional icon files or other unnecessary assets.
Customizer styling options
Change font styles, sizes and layout through the WordPress Customizer so the breadcrumbs match the rest of your site design.
Covers many content types
Displays breadcrumbs for pages, posts, projects and custom post types, along with archive pages across your site.
Automatic taxonomy handling
Accounts for all taxonomies without extra setup, so category paths, including linked parent categories on category pages, appear in the trail.
Clear internal linking
Each step in the trail links back to a parent page or category, giving visitors and search engines a clear map of how content connects.

Questions about Divi Breadcrumbs
Will this work if my site uses the Extra theme instead of Divi?
Yes. The plugin is designed for both the Divi and Extra themes, and it uses the built-in icon set from your theme so the breadcrumbs blend in with the existing styling on either one.
Do I have to set anything up before breadcrumbs appear?
No. The plugin takes a setting-less approach, so breadcrumbs show up once it is active. If you want to change how they look, you can adjust fonts, sizes and layout in the WordPress Customizer.
Does it handle custom post types and categories?
Yes. It supports pages, posts, projects and custom post types, and it automatically accounts for all taxonomies. On category pages, parent categories are linked in the trail so visitors can move up the hierarchy.
Will it add a lot of extra files to my pages?
It is built to be lightweight. Instead of loading its own icon library, it relies on the icons already included in your theme, which avoids adding unnecessary assets to your site.
