Carbon Breadcrumbs Reviews, Downloads & Maintenance

Provides the theme and plugin developers an easy way to build and implement highly customizable breadcrumb functionality, specifically tailored to their needs.
Supports a lot of filters and hooks, and is written in OOP style, giving developers full control over the breadcrumb trail items and appearance.
This plugin can also be embedded in themes, instead of installing it as a WordPress plugin.

Configuration

The most basic way to insert Carbon Breadcrumbs in your theme code is:

If you want to specify various breadcrumb rendering options, you can specify them in an array, like this:

 ' > ', // glue between breadcrumb items
    'link_before' => '',
    'link_after' => '',
    'wrapper_before' => '',
    'wrapper_after' => '',
    'title_before' => '',
    'title_after' => '',
    'min_items' => 2,
    'last_item_link' => true,
    'display_home_item' => true,
    'home_item_title' => __('Home', 'carbon_breadcrumbs'),
    'renderer' => 'Carbon_Breadcrumb_Trail_Renderer',
));
?>

Really wonderful, well-thought code. wish there were schematags

GREAT plugin, fantastic codebase: super clean & TESTED?! FTW! Only downside is no schematagging out of the box :/. This is a pivotal SEO feature and I think this would greatly boost interest in your plugin. Info: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/breadcrumbs#guidelines Result should look like:

Crumb 1 /
Crumb 2

Here's how I've shimmed it in: ' / ', 'link_before' => '

', 'link_after' => '

', 'wrapper_before' => '

', 'wrapper_after' => '', 'title_before' => '', 'title_after' => '', )); $breadcrumbs->setup(); echo $breadcrumbs->render(true); // WP_KSES strips itemprop, itemscope, etc, so bypassing!!! add_filter('carbon_breadcrumbs_item_attributes', _'breadcrumb_schematags', 10, 2); function breadcrumb_schematags($attributes, $item) { if (!is_array($attributes)) $attributes = array(); $attributes['itemscope'] = null; $attributes['itemtype'] = 'http://schema.org/WebPage'; $attributes['itemprop'] = 'item'; return $attributes; } add_filter('carbon_breadcrumbs_item_output', 'breadcrumb_item_position', 10, 5); function breadcrumb_item_position($item_output, $item, $trail, $trail_renderer, $index){ // Add Position $n = strrpos($item_output, ''); $item_output = substr($item_output, 0, $n) . '' . substr($item_output, $n); return $item_output; }
