Does the module replace my theme breadcrumb?

Yes, by default the theme breadcrumb is hidden with CSS to avoid any visual or semantic duplication. You can disable this option if you prefer to keep both or handle the hiding yourself.

My theme already outputs a JSON-LD BreadcrumbList, will there be a conflict?

Two BreadcrumbList markups on the same page can create duplicates in Search Console. In that case, disable either the theme markup or the module JSON-LD option with one click in the configuration.

How exactly does the contextual mode work?

When a visitor browses a category page, the module stores that category in a cookie. On a product page, if the product belongs to that category, the trail shows this path; otherwise it falls back to the deepest active category of the product. With a very aggressive full-page cache that ignores cookies, prefer the deepest-category strategy.

Do the dropdown menus work on mobile?

Yes: dropdowns open on tap, close on outside click or Escape, reposition automatically so they never overflow the screen, and the trail scrolls horizontally on small screens.

Does the module require overrides or modify my theme?

No. Zero overrides, no theme file modified. The module only uses the standard displayHeader, displayWrapperTop and actionFrontControllerSetMedia hooks. It uninstalls cleanly without leaving any trace.

Which pages are covered?

Category pages, product pages, CMS pages with their CMS category tree, brand and supplier pages, plus a generic fallback based on the meta title for other pages. The trail never shows on the home page.

A detailed look at how Breadcrumbs Pro works, why we built it the way we did, and the thinking behind the features above.

§ 01

A breadcrumb that becomes a navigation tool

On a typical store, the breadcrumb is a mere position indicator: to explore a neighboring category, the visitor has to go up one level and back down. Breadcrumbs Pro turns every level into a dropdown menu listing sibling categories: from a Sneakers product page, your customer switches to Running or High-tops in one click, without ever leaving the page. On category pages, an option displays the subcategories of the current category on the last level, making it as easy to drill down the tree as to browse across it.

§ 02

Structured data Google loves

The module injects JSON-LD BreadcrumbList markup in the head of every page: numbered positions, name and URL for each level, and a last item deliberately without a URL as recommended by Google guidelines. Your pages become eligible for the navigation path display in search results instead of the raw URL, improving snippet readability and click-through rate.

§ 03

The right path for multi-category products

When a product belongs to several categories, which path should be shown? Breadcrumbs Pro offers three strategies. Default category: the classic PrestaShop behavior, hardened with an automatic fallback if the category is disabled. Deepest category: the most specific path, ideal for SEO. Contextual: the module remembers the last category visited by the customer and uses it when the product belongs to it, so the trail reflects the actual browsing journey, falling back to the deepest category otherwise.

§ 04

Risk-free integration

No template or class overrides: the module attaches to the displayWrapperTop hook available in the Classic theme and virtually all marketplace themes, and hides the theme breadcrumb with CSS to avoid duplicates. PrestaShop and theme updates never break anything. The JavaScript is vanilla, jQuery-free, and the CSS is isolated under a dedicated prefix.

§ 05

Built for real catalogs

Multistore: every query respects the current shop associations. Multilingual: category names, rewritten URLs and labels resolve in the visitor language. CMS pages display their CMS category tree, brand and supplier pages get their own trail, and other pages fall back cleanly on their meta title. Sibling category lists are cached per request and capped, staying fast even on large catalogs.
