  • Excellent

    I wanted a nice Blocks compatible breadcrumb plugin and this one is perfect. Thank you for making it available.

  • Nice for developers too!

    Really nice README that shows how to use hooks and filters to make the plugin do what you want. A site i'm working on did not need taxonomies so I simply added a filter that removed it from the breadcrumbs really nice!Would maybe be helpful for non codes to add options to hade parts of the permalink structure if for example like my website, the default category taxonomy is not used.

  • Should be part of the WordPress core

    Simple, well-coded, and incredibly performant, X3P0: Breadcrumbs rapidly became one of my favorite plugins due to its lightweight approach and design freedom. Definitely should be part of the WordPress core.

  • This block should be included in WordPress

    I really love this plugin - it's simple, clean, and easy to use. It deserves to be part of the default WordPress installation.
