Hi,
I am using the following code ,to remove "Shop" from breadcrumb in Schema.org but does not work. Any suggestions? Thank you beforehand.
add_filter( 'wpseo_breadcrumb_single_link' ,'wpseo_remove_breadcrumb_link', 10 ,2);

function wpseo_remove_breadcrumb_link( $link_output , $link ){
    $text_to_remove = 'Shop';
  
    if( $link['text'] == $text_to_remove ) {
      $link_output = '';
    }
 
    return $link_output;
}

@foteinitaramonli These snippets are examples of how you can modify the Yoast SEO breadcrumb visual output (image below). These snippets will not alter the breadcrumb schema output nor will they alter WooCommerce's breadcrumb visual output.

Please consult the Yoast SEO schema documentation to change the breadcrumb schema. Please consult the WooCommerce breadcrumb documentation to change WooCommerce's breadcrumb output.

Hello,

thank you very much for these snippets.

But "$text_to_remove" does not work for text with an "&" in it.
I tried it with (all without blanks, of course):

  • &
  • & amp ;
  • & #x26 ;
  • & #38 ;

If anyone needs an example of appending text to both a parent breadcrumb and a child breadcrumb, here's the gist and an accompanying tutorial.
