Hi there!

I have added Breadcrumbs to my Dawn theme but since I have done that I have seen that actually the number of Breadcrumbs in GSC is declining. See graph below.

Additionally, in google results, the results are not showing with the breadcrumbs underneath.

In my website I do have the breadcrumbs visible.

Why are the Breadcrumbs not showing in Google Results? Why is GSC not considering them?

my Breadcrumbs code:

{% unless template == 'index' or template == 'cart' or template == 'list-collections' or template == '404' %}

{% assign t = template | split: '.' | first %}

{% endunless %}
