@korkoruz Both versions of your code remove the parent category completely, but I thought it should leave the category in the breadcrumb but just remove the href. Did I misunderstand, or is there a bug with your code?

Hello,

Please can someone help me.

My goal is to have the category/archive URL show in my breadcrumb path for posts tagged in specific archives only.

So a rule to say if the post is tagged 'news' include the /news/ breadcrumb.

I don't want to include the category breadcrumb rule sitewide as some posts have multiple categories.

But for my /blog/ section and /news/ section, I would like the posts breadcrumb path to parent said archive page.

Hi,
I am using the following code ,to remove "Shop" from breadcrumb in Schema.org but does not work. Any suggestions? Thank you beforehand.
add_filter( 'wpseo_breadcrumb_single_link' ,'wpseo_remove_breadcrumb_link', 10 ,2);

function wpseo_remove_breadcrumb_link( $link_output , $link ){
    $text_to_remove = 'Shop';
  
    if( $link['text'] == $text_to_remove ) {
      $link_output = '';
    }
 
    return $link_output;
}

@foteinitaramonli These snippets are examples of how you can modify the Yoast SEO breadcrumb visual output (image below). These snippets will not alter the breadcrumb schema output nor will they alter WooCommerce's breadcrumb visual output.

Please consult the Yoast SEO schema documentation to change the breadcrumb schema. Please consult the WooCommerce breadcrumb documentation to change WooCommerce's breadcrumb output.

Hello,

thank you very much for these snippets.

But "$text_to_remove" does not work for text with an "&" in it.
I tried it with (all without blanks, of course):

• &
• & amp ;
• & #x26 ;
• & #38 ;

If anyone needs an example of appending text to both a parent breadcrumb and a child breadcrumb, here's the gist and an accompanying tutorial.

I don't want to show Home on homepage how to disable that ?
