How to turn off Zen Cart Breadcrumb Navigation


The Breadcrumb Navigation (also known as Breadcrumb Trail Links) in Zen Cart shows visitors where they are in your store and also provides quick links to return to the category or sub-category level.

  2. From the Configuration menu, select Layout Settings.
  3. Click on the (i) next to Define Breadcrumb Status and click the Edit button.

    I just installed Zen cart with a free template and have selected to turn off the breadcrumbs menu but its still there on every page. I’m trying to turn it off completely. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi Robert
    I’ve just had a quick look at your site and it looks as though you have the breadcrumb navigation turned off.

    Could it be that you are referring to the Category or SubCategory Image / Links? Try going into Zen Cart Admin > Configuration > Product Listing and turn both ‘Include Product Listing Sub Categories Image’ and ‘Include Product Listing Top Categories Image’ to false. I think this might be what you are looking for.

    Hope this helps,
    Kerrin
