<p>Instant Breadcrumbs adds a breadcrumb trail to your WordPress blog’s primary navigation menu. No theme editing required!<br />
Including a breadcrumb trail on your site not only makes it easier for visitors to navigate your site, but also allows<br />
search engines to better explore your blog and include the breadcrumb information in rich snippet data in search<br />
results. Many breadcrumb plugins exist, but normally require either theme editing, or use of a theme that is already<br />
customized to include the breadcrumb function. In addition, editing the theme is usually followed by some CSS<br />
styling to make the breadcrumb trail match the overall ‘look’ of the site.</p>
<p>Instant Breadcrumbs takes a different approach. Since breadcrumbs are a navigation aid, the generated trail is<br />
automatically added to the front of your existing primary navigation menu. This allows it to not only function<br />
straight out of the box with a large number of themes, but also use the existing styling of your primary navigation<br />
menu.</p>
<p>A quick overview of Instant Breadcrumbs features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Works with both custom primary menus and the default ‘page’ menu generated by WordPress;</li>
<li>Produces RDFa-compliant breadcrumb trails that may be used by Google and others in search results;</li>
<li>Supports customization of the breadcrumb titles for pages such as the front page, archives, and search;</li>
<li>Re-uses existing top-level entries in the primary menu to avoid repeated links;</li>
<li>Includes CSS classes for added breadcrumbs for optional further styling if desired;</li>
<li>Use the built-in breadcrumb generator, or third-party generators such as Yoast (<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/" rel="ugc">WordPress SEO</a>)<br />
and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/breadcrumb-navxt/" rel="ugc">Breadcrumb NavXT</a>, adding those to the nav menu without theme editing. Tested against<br />
Breadcrumb NavXT 5.1.0 and WordPress SEO 1.5.4.2;</li>
<li>Supports HTML markup in post titles, with the option to disable it;</li>
<li>“Manual” mode allows insertion into templates for themes that do not use the WordPress primary navigation menu;</li>
<li>A widget is available if you would prefer to show the breadcrumb trail in a sidebar.</li>
</ul>
