 * Hello,
 * I have used your plugin to migrate from drupal which brought over a bunch of 
   custom post types – great.
 * Now, I’d like to use the Yoast breadcrumbs to help users naviagate between pages
   and their hierarchy.
 * The hierarchy is roughly like this: Home > Regional home > Resort Home > Category
   within resort home > you are here [page title]… such that in the breadcrumbs 
   I’d like to see Resort home > Activities > [page title].
 * The problem is that Yoast and all other breadrumb plugins I have found utilize
   the wp core categories and don’t allow for flexibility to utilize the ACF/CPT
   UI posts. Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?
 * Here’s a video explainer: [https://www.loom.com/share/b479dc135bbf47b3b13bcf7b65cbc4af](https://www.loom.com/share/b479dc135bbf47b3b13bcf7b65cbc4af)
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi
 * I honestly don’t have an answer for you, as CPTUI doesn’t influence the structure
   of breadcrumbs and their determined hierarchies. That’s all on Yoast or whichever
   plugin someone is using.
 * From what I could see, it feels like your intended links for the breadcrumb parts
   are coming from different post types that are potentially being associated with
   each other, or landing pages that are showing posts from other post types. And
   that’s just not how Yoast is interpreting things.
 * Some other notes/thoughts I had, is that a lot of the “search like” pages you
   were mentioning are probably the base archives for the content type that’s ending
   up getting clicked on. For example you pulled up the “activity” category, but
   you also have an “activity” post type. Since the core category archives have `/
   category/` in their permalink, you were likely looking at the post type archive
   for “activity”.
 * Yoast support would know more about any available filters in their breadcrumb
   code, more than I do.
 * All in all, it feels like Yoast is interpreting things in a way that is not desired
   or intended, and it’s largely a question of how to amend or customize that.

 * [@rob_strickland](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rob_strickland/) Did you
   ever get this figured out?
