Customer Success Team

Last updated on Sep 02, 2024

The Breadcrumb widget provides your customers with a trail of links displayed near the top of a webpage. This trail reflects the hierarchical structure of your website and indicates the customers' path from the homepage to their current location. The breadcrumb navigation enables your customers to quickly navigate back to previous pages by clicking on any part of the breadcrumb trail. 

Adding a Breadcrumb Widget

To add a Breadcrumb widget:

  1. Go to the Visual Editor by clicking Design on the Dashboard top panel or by navigating from Dashboard > Channels > Design.
  2. Navigate to the Widgets list on the Visual Editor Left Panel.
  3. Type the widget name in the search bar, or expand the Navigation grouping and select the Breadcrumb widget.
  4. Drag and drop the Breadcrumb widget from the list onto the desired crafting area of the Layout Canvas.

Configuring the Breadcrumb Widget

Once you have added the Breadcrumb widget, click it to activate the Property Panel where you can customize its Styles and Settings according to your preferences.
