Hello! I am using the xclusive theme, and the breadcrumbs only go one level down. So, if I am on a product it just shows HOME > PRODUCT TITLE, rather than HOME > Women’s > Short Sleeves > PRODUCT TITLE. Is there a way to include the rest of the hierarchy?

HOME > Women’s > Short Sleeves > PRODUCT TITLE

Is in the context of a FULL collection url.
If your on a product page there is NO context for the theme to even have to render more info.

You’d need to define logic and store the data of what thing maps to which other thing somewhere for that logic to use.
Which is an advanced theme customization that can vary by themes.

There may be tutorials you can research online, or reach out if you need it built custom.
