Hello,

I want to display category hierarchy like below in the page header in a separate line.

Help appreciated. Thanks

Category 1 >>> Category 2 >> Category 3

Hi there,

GP doesn’t have built-in breadcrumb feature.

I’ll recommend checking out a plugin like YoastSEO.

Let me know 🙂

Thanks, But is there a way to do that without Yoast? I just need to display hierarchy, nothing else.
Category 1 >>> Category 2 >> Category 3

If the answer is no can u help me adding that to Page Header element
Thanks

Sorry you just want to display the categories?

If so try the template tags:

Thanks Leo

I just enabled breadcrumbs from Yoast Seo.

I have found this hook, But how to appy it to global page header? I cant find the option for this.

<?php if ( function_exists(‘yoast_breadcrumb’) ) { ?>

<?php yoast_breadcrumb(‘<p id=”breadcrumbs”>’,'</p>’); ?>

<?php } ?>

If you only want to display categories, then I don’t think you actually need YoastSEO.

Try the template tag solution suggested here:

If you want to install Yoast still, take a look at this:
