I personally only use the shorter code entered into any of the "text "widgets Go into Customizing/widgets/(now choose area you want it to be placed at)add a widget/text Enter [flexy_breadcrumb] into the text field UPDATE: looked like the best breadcrumb plugin, but today I noticed that it doesn't work with my secondary menu properly. It shows Home and after that immediately the page I am on, skipping all the hierarchy like if it doesn't exist. I use Simple Grid pro theme btw. That's a pity, because I really liked it otherwise.

I've been looking everywhere for the perfect breadcrumbs plugin for ages. Either they were all wrong or screwed up my installation when they updated. This one is perfect, and I couldn't be happier with it. All I suggest is that in your display instructions, you post the full code to add to your .php files. You say that all you have to do is add the [flexy_breadcrumb] short code. That's true if you add it within the editor, but it took me awhile to figure out that to add it to the file itself, you have to add it in this way: <?php echo do_shortcode( '[flexy_breadcrumb]' ); ?> This little bit of detail won't be self-evident to some people, so I think you should let them know that this is how you add it. Otherwise, job well done!
