# Breadcrumbs Shortcode

 * Hello! I am new to The SEO Framework and I switched from Rank Math. My question
   is:
 * Is there a way to get a shortcode so I can add breadcrumbs to my post pages as
   I could do with Rank Math or Yoast?
 * I’m using GeneratePress and they explain it here about the shortcode: [https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-breadcrumbs/](https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-breadcrumbs/)
 * Kind regards,
    Robert

 * Hi Robert,
 * I hope you’re doing well. I apologize for my belated reply; I’ve been writing
   and testing two updates simultaneously:
    1. [https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/compare/4.2.3…28fc19a46cdd5bd7e332cfd6c56bf89357923e28](https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/compare/4.2.3…28fc19a46cdd5bd7e332cfd6c56bf89357923e28)
   2. [https://github.com/sybrew/The-SEO-Framework-Extension-Manager/compare/2.5.2…a5679f3c29b9a04bdc7cdb8c93d418923d441110](https://github.com/sybrew/The-SEO-Framework-Extension-Manager/compare/2.5.2…a5679f3c29b9a04bdc7cdb8c93d418923d441110)
 * I also write to every support topic personally; canned copy-pasta replies are
   not my favorite food.
 * Like The SEO Framework, GeneratePress is maintained by a single developer strapped
   for time. Much as Tom never found the time to develop breadcrumbs and relied 
   on third-party solutions such as Yoast SEO, we chose to wait for WordPress to
   [ship a breadcrumbs block natively](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/21943).
 * Until then, I recommend using [Breadcrumbs NavXT](https://wordpress.org/plugins/breadcrumb-navxt/).
   It lets you implement such a breadcrumb via a shortcode but offers far greater
   control (a for-purpose plugin).
 * Primary Term support for breadcrumb plugins is planned, but please excuse me,
   for we haven’t gotten around to that yet (not many people demand this feature).
   However, this year, I will (try to) add all these nice-to-haves to The SEO Framework.
   For this issue specifically, please see [https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/407](https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/407).
 * If you’re having difficulties implementing breadcrumbs using, let me know!

 * Thanks for your reply Sybre! I understand so no worries about the delay. I had
   Brian from perfmatters.io who helped me with your plugin. He’s a HUGE fan of 
   your work, recommending it everywhere.
 * I have one thing left to solve and maybe you could help with it.
    This is an 
   example link to an article page: [https://www.retetediabetici.ro/page/4/?p=yigdntjgl](https://www.retetediabetici.ro/page/4/?p=yigdntjgl)
   Google is indexing this page like this: “Pagina 4 – Retete Diabetici” where Pagina
   means page. Also, the title of the page becomes very long by adding “Pagina 4”
   to it. Is there any way I can customize the name and the number of this pages
   and make them more SEO friendly because it’s killing me to see them like this
   🙂
 * Best regards,
    Robert

 * Hi Robert,
 * Google still has indexed old versions of those pages supported by Rank Math, 
   which does not represent what The SEO Framework would output. TSF invokes “Advanced
   Query Protection” [when encountering such URLs](https://theseoframework.com/feature-highlights/discord-support-advanced-query-protection/),
   blocking it from reaching Google’s index.
 * It can take a few days (or weeks) for Google to reprocess already indexed pages.
   You can ask Google to reprocess pages quickly using the URL Inspection Tool. 
   [https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9012289?hl=en](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9012289?hl=en)
 * This doesn’t answer your question directly, for I think we’re dealing with an
   [XY problem](https://xyproblem.info/). I believe waiting for Google to reprocess
   those broken-query pages with TSF enabled will help resolve the issue.

 * Thanks, Sybre,
 * It makes perfect sense now 🙂 those URLs are not in the sitemap anymore so I 
   will wait for Google to remove them naturally.
 * Kind regard,
    R.
