This PHP code creates a very basic shortcode for displaying breadcrumbs in Genesis.
The reason i coded this is because a member wanted to float the breadcrumbs over a background image for a widgets like you see in the following image:
Here’s the code:
This 1st snippet should be added to your child themes functions file and creates a shortcode named [breadcrumbs] you can use in a text widget or your wp editor.
add_shortcode( 'breadcrumbs', 'breadcrumbs_shortcode' );
function breadcrumbs_shortcode() {
return genesis_breadcrumb();
}This 2nd snippet adds support for using shortcodes in text widgets:
add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode' );And the 3rd snippet enables you to remove the shortcodes output using the Genesis > Theme Settings.
remove_action( 'genesis_before_loop', 'genesis_do_breadcrumbs' );Style Breadcrumbs
Modify your themes existing CSS for breadcrumbs.
.breadcrumb {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
