How it sells itself

Collection Breadcrumbs adds clear navigation paths to your product and collection pages without editing theme files. The app automatically determines the most relevant collection for each product and generates consistent breadcrumbs across your store. For products in multiple collections, you can optionally set a primary collection. JSON-LD breadcrumb schema is included to support search engines.

Made for stores that care about SEO and navigation. Go beyond Home > Collection > Product: build your real category tree and show accurate multi-level breadcrumbs and subcollection grids on every page. Products in several collections get the right path, and visitor path mode makes breadcrumbs follow the shopper's route.

Key points
  • Automatic product and collection breadcrumbs
  • Primary collection control for multi-collection products
  • JSON-LD breadcrumb structured data for improved SEO
  • Theme editor app blocks — no theme file edits
  • Arrange your collections by dragging them — up to ten levels deep.
  • JSON-LD structured data, so Google can show the path in search results.
  • Ten breadcrumb styles along with a category extension.
  • Choose separately how the breadcrumb behaves on desktop and on mobile.
