How can I create a 4-layer breadcrumb in Shopify using Dawn theme?

Store Design

Hi,

I have an issue with the breadcrumb on my website (99mobility.com.au).

Currently by using an app, it shows 3 layers in the breadcrumb, home, collection, and the product as below

“Home > Bathroom Aids > Aspire Over Toilet Aid - Aluminium”

However, there are many products under one collection (e.g. Bathroom Aids), and I would like to separate them into a couple of sub-collections, under Bathroom Aids.

How to do that in Shopify?

I am using Dawn theme.

Thanks!

To create sub-collections in Shopify using the Dawn theme and update your breadcrumb accordingly, you’ll need to make changes to your Shopify admin and modify your theme code.

Now follow this step…

  • Log in to your Shopify admin.
  • From the left-hand menu, click on “Products” and then “Collections.”
  • Find the collection you want to add sub-collections to (e.g., “Bathroom Aids”) and click on its name.
  • In the collection editor, click on the “Add a child collection” button.
  • Enter the name for your sub-collection (e.g., “Toilet Aids”) and save the changes.
  • Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each sub-collection you want to create under “Bathroom Aids.”

Now that you have created sub-collections, you’ll need to update your theme code to display the breadcrumb correctly.

Please note that modifying your theme code requires some technical knowledge, and it’s always a good idea to create a backup of your theme before making any changes.
