Topic summary

  • Request: Customize Shopify collection breadcrumbs so they don’t mirror the collection title.
  • Current setup: Collection title is an SEO-optimized phrase (“Luxurious King Size Beds for Spacious Comfort”), while the URL is shorter (collection/king-size-beds). Breadcrumb currently renders as “Home / Luxurious King Size Beds for Spacious Comfort.”
  • Desired outcome: Breadcrumb should display a concise, hierarchical path — “Home / Beds / King Size Beds” — independent of the collection’s long SEO title.
  • Context: Applies to collection pages within a Shopify theme; user asks if this can be achieved through code. A theme preview link is provided.
  • Status: No solution or code provided yet; the request remains open with the key question of how to implement custom breadcrumb labels and structure via theme customization.

Hello everyone! I need some help with breadcrumbs.

I named my collection differently from its URL to improve SEO. For example, the collection name is “Luxurious King Size Beds for Spacious Comfort,” but the URL is set to collection/king-size-beds.

Currently, the breadcrumb shows as Home / Luxurious King Size Beds for Spacious Comfort for Spacious Comfort. However, I would like it to display as Home / Beds / King Size Beds instead. Is there a way to achieve this through code? Thanks in advance!
