 * At the top of the page, there are breadcrumbs and I want to edit the last one.
   I have tried using the last child property to specify it but am not getting any
   luck. Does anyone know how I might be able to edit specifically it?
    Good day.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fselecting-a-html-element%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * The last one isn’t really an element in itself, it’s just text within the overall`
   <nav>` element. However, you can still style it separately than the rest because
   the rest are styled separately as anchor links. So just style the entire `<nav
   >` to affect the last breadcrumb.
 *     ```
       nav.woocommerce-breadcrumb {
           color: blue;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you for the advice but sadly that only works with color. If I try to change
   the font size or anything of the sort it affects the whole thing.

 * You then need to override the `nav.woocommerce-breadcrumb` rules with more specific`
   nav.woocommerce-breadcrumb a` rules that are applied to the link elements only.
