Key features of this plugin:
<ul>
<li>

</li>
<li>
Works in every possible scenario: pages and sub-pages, categories and sub-categories, tags, posts (in this case, it can even handle posts with multiple categories, showing different breadcrumbs with the v:child markup, as Google suggests)
</li>
<li>
Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool always says that everything is perfect (take a look at the results of one of my italian posts <a href="https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.danilopetrozzi.it%2Fone-time-pad-messaggi-criptati-inattaccabili-a-prova-di-nsa&hl=en" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>)
</li>

The RDFa markup is well handled by Google: in just a few days/weeks, every page will have it’s own breadcrumb rich snippets in search results pages. (see screenshots)
</li>
<li>
A rich options page allows you to set where the breadcrumbs will show and “how”
</li>
