Storefront Theme: How To Remove Breadcrumbs

Storefront is the most compatible theme when it comes to building a WordPress eCommerce website. Following the best practices Storefront displays Breadcrumb navigation at the top of every product pages. But some store owners think they are better off without this extra navigation item.

In this tutorial, we will see how we can completely remove breadcrumb navigation from Storefront WooCommerce theme.

PHP Snippet: Remove Breadcrumbs (Storefront Theme)

add_action( 'init', 'bbloomer_remove_storefront_breadcrumbs' );

function bbloomer_remove_storefront_breadcrumbs() {
   remove_action( 'storefront_before_content', 'woocommerce_breadcrumb', 10 );
}

Where to add this snippet?

You can place PHP snippets at the bottom of your child theme functions.php file (delete "?>" if you have it there). CSS, on the other hand, goes in your child theme style.css file. Make sure you know what you are doing when editing such files - if you need more guidance, please take a look at my free video tutorial "Where to Place WooCommerce Customization?"

Does this snippet (still) work?

Please let me know in the comments if everything worked as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting on PHP 7.3.
