WordPress Explored — Breadcrumb NavXT Plugin

2022-08-07T16:15:48-04:00March 25th, 2016|Website Development|0 Comments

The concept of a breadcrumb is not new and derives its name as you would think. Rather than it being crumbs from bread, it’s a small fragment of a sites navigation. Breadcrumb plugins pick up on the hierarchy of pages you place within your navigation-menu. To learn more about hierarchies please visit https://blog.kissmetrics.com/site-structure-enhance-seo/ . When a breadcrumb is used on your site, a visitor will see a second navigation area on a page.
