Compatibility: All Shopify themes, work best with Shopify 2.0 FREE themes
Several clients have been seeking an effective breadcrumb navigation system that works seamlessly with the CSS styles of Shopify 2.0's FREE themes.
Although a complimentary Shopify breadcrumb code exists, its compatibility with individual themes may vary. Furthermore, there are known challenges with the 'current_tags' feature.
To address this, we have developed a code snippet that can detect the previous URL. If a user navigates from a collection page to a product page, the breadcrumb will display the collection title. In other cases, the assigned collection metafield will be used to display relevant information.
You can check the demo store here. Password: made4uo

- A Shopify breadcrumb section
- Choose different arrows
- Breadcrumb will appear on product, collection, article, and page
- Collection title with link will show at the middle when you open a product from the collection page and replaces the assigned collection metafield

@ILONKA I believe this is fixed. I would suggest to contact us using “Chat with us” to assist you timely
Hello,
I just implemented “breadcrumbs”, it works perfectly on product pages or collections. but not so good on blog pages. It shows only “Home” and the blog post, but not in which blog you are (I have two blogs). For example it should be “Home > Puppy Blog > Stay Alone”, instead the display is only “Home > Stay Alone” . Do you have a solution for this? Thank you very much, Ilonka
PS: I have also implemented Infinite Scroll, it works very well, thanks for that.
