Magento breadcrumbs are a navigational tool to improve customer experiences. They are displayed at the top of web pages to let users see how they arrived at their current page. Breadcrumbs use the page name followed by the ">" symbol, i.e., home>clothes>sweaters> All crumbs should be linked to the corresponding page.
Magento 2 lets users add breadcrumbs to product pages and pages from the content management system (CMS). Custom pages require code to display breadcrumbs.
Breadcrumbs on a product page are enabled by default in Magento 2.3.3 or higher. Magento 2 shows full breadcrumbs on a product page if navigation uses categories. If you navigate using product URLs, the full breadcrumb may not show.
Not all themes support the default settings for product pages. Inserting the following code into a product page layout (XML) file should enable breadcrumbs:
<referenceBlock name="breadcrumbs" template="Magento_Theme::html/breadcrumbs.phtml"/>
<block class="Magento\Catalog\Block\Breadcrumbs"/>
For nonprogrammers, an experienced Magento developer can customize a Magento 2 breadcrumbs product page.
Adding custom pages to Magento 2 requires XML layout and configuration files.
Coding changes are required to add breadcrumbs to a custom page.
Breadcrumbs can be placed on CMS pages by changing the Magento 2 breadcrumbs settings through the Admin panel.
You may need to flush the cache to display the changes.
