Breadcrumbs

1 min read Updated Sep 2026 Polestar

Polestar shows a breadcrumb trail at the top of the content area when Breadcrumb NavXT, Yoast SEO or Rank Math is active. The theme has no breadcrumb setting of its own.

Breadcrumb NavXT

Install and activate Breadcrumb NavXT. The trail shows without further setup.

Yoast SEO

Install and activate Yoast SEO. Then check the breadcrumb setting.

  1. Go to Yoast SEOSettingsAdvancedBreadcrumbs.
  2. Turn on Enable breadcrumbs for your theme. It is on by default.

Rank Math

Install and activate Rank Math SEO. Then turn on Enable breadcrumbs function at Rank Math SEOGeneral SettingsBreadcrumbs. It is on by default.

Header Overlap

Polestar hides the breadcrumb trail on pages that use the Header Overlap page setting. The trail would collide with the header. On those pages, add the trail with the Breadcrumb NavXT widget in Page Builder.

Style the Trail

The trail has the class breadcrumbs. See CSS Snippets for size and spacing examples.
