How to Hide and Delete Breadcrumb from Blogger Template
Breadcrumb is useful for navigating sub-categories to parent category
and home page. So this play an important role for making a Blog user friendly.
However Breadcrumb is not suitable for all kinds of Blog. It's importance
varies according to template niche. However many Blogger wants to remove Breadcrumb
from their Blogger template. From my point of view hiding is better than
completely removing Breadcrumb. Because if you feel in future that Breadcrumb
is useful and should include in your Blogger template then you can simply again display the Breadcrumb. So

Blogger template.

How to Delete breadcrumb from Blogger template?
So this is very simple to hide Breadcrumb.
But we can completely remove Breadcrumb from our Blogger template. Just follow
the below steps-
Step 1 Log in to
your Blogger Account and Go to your Blogger Dashboard

.breadcrumb {border-bottom:1px solid #E2E2E2;height:24px;overflow:hidden;margin:0 0 20px;font-size:86%;font-weight:bold}
.breadcrumb li{float:left}
.breadcrumb li a,.breadcrumb li span{display:block;height:24px;line-height:24px;padding:0 10px}

Note that
the code won't be exactly like above it will vary according to design. But in
my designed Blogger template I have used
the code like above. But focus on ".breadcrumb" which is the beginning
code of breadcrumb. If you are following this process then you won't able to
recover your breadcrumb code again. But if you have a backup then you can
include it again.

I'd like to hide the breadcrumb from my blogger blog. I did follow your advise but that didn't help - got two breadcrumbs instead of one.
Please check up on your code.

Sorry, your advise as for how to hide a breadcrumb didn't work - the site view got even worse and breadcrumb remained. Had to reverse all back.
Your advise how to remove a breadcrumb also didn't work since the template hasn't the "breadcrumb" term at all.
Any other idea?
Thank you.
Igor
In Which theme you have applied my script? I just checked your site.You are using Contempo Blogger theme. This theme doesn't have breadcrumb script.
Thanks for your answer. Well, you know better, as you are better qualified. Yet, the question remains, even how to remove the breadcrumb, whether it's there in the theme or not.
I did try to apply your script to that theme. Guilty as charged. What now?
Kindly tell me your opinion.
Thanks again, Igor
It depends on Blogger theme. Different developer write script different way. Your blogger theme doesn't have any breadcrumb feature. You can see my theme's breadcrumb script from below code block. You can see my theme's breadcrumb at the above of Post title of this page.
<div class='breadcrumbs' xmlns:v='http://rdf.data-vocabulary.org/#'>
You are here: <span class='homex' typeof='v:Breadcrumb'><a href='http://www.bloggerspice.com/' property='v:title' rel='v:url'> Home</a>
</span>
<span class='breadlabel' typeof='v:Breadcrumb'><a href='http://www.bloggerspice.com/search/label/Blogger?&max-results=6' property='v:title' rel='v:url'>Blogger</a>
</span>
<span class='breadlabel'>How to Hide and Delete Breadcrumb from Blogger Template?</span>
</div>
But the above script is not same in all theme. if you edit any other theme you will see breadcrumb script different way. But some theme developer write script jointly with other widget for compressing the CSS script. So in that case removing breadcrumb is so tough, because you have to scrutinize the whole theme script carefully.
Hope you will understand. Thank you. :)
Now it's clear, more or less.
Take care,
Igor
