Hello @idaya
I would like to give you the recommendation to support you so kindly follow steps below:

  1. Go to your Online store > Themes > Edit code

  2. Create a new snippet file, name is: breadcrumb.liquid and paste the code

{% comment %}
  Documentation - http://docs.shopify.com/support/your-website/navigation/creating-a-breadcrumb-navigation
{% endcomment %}
{% unless request.page_type == 'index' or request.page_type == 'cart' %}

{% endunless %}
  1. Open your theme.liquid file, add the code after : {%include ‘breadcrumb’%}

I hope the above is useful to you.
Best regards,
GemPages Support Team

@GemPages So after I have created the new breadcrumb.liquid and add that code, I just add {%include ‘breadcrumb’%} on the theme.liquid file? or the entire code?

Thank you!
