    Rather than using the standard bread-crumb, I would like to have a small header with title / breadcrumb embedded in it.
    I added the short code for the bread crumb to a text field in a slide, but it does not display! The slider states it is short code aware..so why doesn’t this work?

    As an alternate I tried to add the breadcrumb shortcode in a color block with a background image, but the div class for the shortcode is not transparent so that doesn’t work either…
    How can I make this work?

    Hi,

    breadcrumbs seem to work fine for me:

    If that’s not what you want to achieve, then make things clear for us by using screenshots/mockup (imgur.com, dropbox).

    The [bread_crumb] shortcode works, but not when used in theme’s LAYERSLIDER WP.
    Update: The short code worked once I switched the short code slide layer to html instead of insert it as text.
    Using the layerslider with the breadcrumb shortcode isn’t ideal because of breadcrumb is styled with a white background and so it overlays the background image of the slide. I want to have a background image for the breadcrumb.

    Maybe it is better to change the theme breadcrumb css so it matched what I’m trying to do with the slider? I’ll forgo the fancy slider effects.
    In the breadcrumb, can the breadcrumb section height be 150px high, the page title be increased to 32px, text is centered vertically, and the background is an image 1200px wide 150px ( i use boxed theme), is that possible? If so, how?

    Hi,

    not sure what you want to achieve, however, try this code:

    .breadcrumb.breadcrumbs.avia-breadcrumbs {
top: 25px;
left: 40px;
}

    and adjust as needed.

    Best regards,

    OK thanks.
    I added some other css to the quick css in styling to get the background image and larger page title font in the breadcrumb, it seems to align OK.

    .title_container { background-color: transparent!important;background-image: url(“http://mrf-furnaces.com/wp4/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/background1200x100-grey.jpg”); }
    .title_container .main-title{
    font-size: 32px !important;

    related issue :on some pages, the breadcrumb does not show at all, no matter how I set the page layout option:
    “Title Bar Settings
    Display the Title Bar with Page Title and Breadcrumb Navigation”

    On other pages it does display with same settings. Why is this? what prevents the breadcrumb from displaying on some pages even though settings are the same? are there page elements that make the theme forego the breadcrumb?

    Hi,

    Would you mind providing a precise link to your site, showing the elements in question? We need to be able to inspect them in order to help :)

    page where breadcrumb is not displayed:

    Arc Melt Furnace SA-200

    page where breadcrumb is displayed:

    Products

    in both pages, the layout and title bar settings are the same, and breadcrumb SHOULD display. So why doesn’t it display on both?
    If you want access to the back end, please see login info posted earlier in this thread.
    Thanks.

    Update: it appears that if I use default page editor, the breadcrumb and title will show, but when i use advanced theme editor (avia?), the title/breadcrumb does not show. A work around is to use add a color block with text block and add the bread crumb shortcode in it, this has to be repeated for every page..

    Update 2: I had to undo this to get it to work again:

    open template-builder.php file and comment out 19th line as following

    //check if we want to display breadcumb and title
    //if( get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘header’, true) != ‘no’) echo avia_title();
