hi there.
i have been very very happy with enfold so far. still am.
i am using breadcrumbs in my site but i have only their header title shown.
i didnt care about yoast breadcrumbs since yesterday. yesterday google announced some changes in their algorithm.to cut a long story sort, yoast, in order to adapt to these dreadful changes, will be updating their breadcrumbs function to better reflect the algorithm changes.
Now, i do not want necessaily to use yoast breadcrumbs instead of enfold breadcrumbs. so here are my questions.since enfold breadcrumbs are already seo optimized, will there be some changes in enfold breadcrumbs to better reflect the new algorithm changes?
if not, since there is no option (from what i can see in the settings), to enable or disable the enfold breadcrumbs (i am guessing they are enabled by default), how can i disable enfold breadcrumbs and use yoast breadcrumbs instead? i have to add some code? and if yes can someone point me exactly to what i need to replace?
also i am using the google testing tool to test my site and in the results page, i see no result for breadcrumbs. if i google a page from my site, i do not see any breadcrumbs under the search result. though i know they are enabled… why is that? any idea?
another question is about schema markup. i have Automated Schema.org HTML Markup activated in enfold settings. i decided to start using more markup so i want to add more schema markup in my site. is it necessary to deactivate the “Automated Schema.org HTML Markup” from the settings? or not? should i just create the markup code and add it in the html of the page i want to update, and keep having the”Automated Schema.org HTML Markup” activated? My problem is that i do not understand what schema markup fields have been inserted in my page. i also have a simple html site in another url and i did specify the schema category for my site and some othr fields like url img email etc. but in enfold there is no field to choose schema category or even add the email img url description etc in schema
last but certainly not least, when i test my site with google testing tool, i get a warning in sitenavigationelement
it says that something is blank but i do not know hot to fix this. any ideas?sorry for the many questions and thank you again for a great theme and a wonderful support. i am very proud of enfold and it is just that i am trying to be proactive with these significant google algorithm changes. thank you beforehand
(and sorry for my bad english)Hey porotikos!
1. You might be able to do something like this to swtich the breadcrumbs out with yoast breadcrumbs.
add_filter( 'avf_title_args', 'enfold_customization_yoast_breadcrumbs', 10, 1 ); function enfold_customization_yoast_breadcrumbs( $args ) { $args['breadcrumb'] = false; $args['additions'] = '<div class="breadcrumb breadcrumbs avia-breadcrumbs">'.yoast_breadcrumb().'</div>'; return $args; }I don’t remember if yoast_breadcrumb() is the correct function name to use or not though.
2. Send us a link to your results and we’ll take a look.
3. I guess it would depend on what you want to add and where. We already have the basics setup like title, date, etc etc. If your trying to do stuff like reviews or recipes then yes you could just add the markup to your page / post content without deactivating our code. You can view all of the markup we are already grabbing in /enfold/includes/helper-markup.php.
4. Send us a link to the test results please.
Cheers!
Elliotthi. this is the link of the image of the error page in google testing tool

mind you, the error message is in greek, so ill try and translate it for you. it says:
“the knot (or node?) is empty. check again that this is what you want, and consider deleting it”about my other questions please ignore them. the yesterdays update in yoast was so good that i decided i am fine with the current markup (it added some great markups by default). also i decided for the current time to stick to enfold breadcrumbs.
so thank you again. if you help me eliminate the google testing tool errors, we are done!!!
i love enfold and always recommend it to my friends. thank you for a wonderful theme and an amazing support. cheersHey!
Which testing tool are you using? Send us a link to it.
I checked your site in the mobile testing tool, https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/, but it passed with no issues.

thats the one i usedHi!
I see. It looks like we need to add the itemprop = “url” to each link in the menu. Not sure if there is going to be an easy way to go about that. We’ll have to use a menu walker.
I’ll go ahead and let our devs know about this and we’ll see if we can get something worked out in a future update but for now it’s safe to leave it alone as it’s just a warning.
Cheers!
Elliott
