Developer documentation

The trail is the only thing telling a reader where in the tree they landed

Most readers arrive on a documentation page from search, not from the sidebar. A bar that stays with them as they scroll keeps the parent section one click away for the whole article.

In this section

How the limits are applied

Requests are counted per API key against a rolling window, not a calendar minute, so a burst at the end of one minute cannot be followed immediately by a second burst at the start of the next.

Every response carries the remaining allowance in its headers. When the window is exhausted the API answers with a 429 and names the number of seconds to wait rather than asking the client to guess.

The burst allowance resets every ten seconds, independently of the rolling window.

Checkout

A checkout is a tree too, and the customer needs to see the way back

Basket, delivery, payment, confirmation. Most abandoned baskets are abandoned on the payment step, and an unlabelled step is where the doubt starts.

STEP 01

Delivery

Address confirmed, Thursday delivery slot held for the next fifteen minutes.

STEP 02

Payment

Card or iDEAL. The trail above names this step so nobody wonders how many are left.

STEP 03

Confirmation

Order number, invoice and a tracking link, sent before the page finishes loading.

Property listing

Two bedrooms above the gallery strip, one street back from the water

A property portal is a geography, not a list. City, then district, then street: the trail is how a buyer widens the search back out again after landing on one flat from a search engine.

One widget, every tree

The same trail, three completely different site structures

A help centre, a jobs board and a course catalogue organise their content in three incompatible ways. The trail does not care: it reads the hierarchy the site already has and names the level the reader is standing on.

Knowledge base

Support article

Readers land here from a search for the error message, never from the help centre index. The parent category is the only route back.

Jobs board

Platform team, Rotterdam

A vacancy sits under a department and a location at the same time. The trail carries the one a candidate is filtering on.

Course catalogue

Lesson 4 of 9

A lesson lives inside a module inside a track, and a long lesson title is truncated on the trail while the full one stays in the link title.

FAQ
Frequently asked

Breadcrumbs

Straight answers about what this one does, where it fits in a real build, and what it costs you to ship.

Can I add breadcrumbs to Elementor without an SEO plugin?

Yes. The Breadcrumbs widget in Sky Addons for Elementor builds the trail itself from WordPress’s own hierarchy — pages, categories, tags, authors, search results, archives, shop pages and 404s all resolve without a third-party plugin installed.

Does it work with Yoast SEO or Rank Math breadcrumbs?

Yes. When Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress, All in One SEO or Breadcrumb NavXT is active, a Source dropdown appears and the widget re-renders that plugin’s trail using its own styles. Your SEO plugin keeps deciding what the crumbs say; Sky Addons decides how they look.

Will this create duplicate breadcrumb schema on my pages?

Not on the Auto setting, which is the point of it. BreadcrumbList structured data can be Off, Auto or Always, and Auto stays silent when Yoast, Rank Math, SEOPress or All in One SEO is active, because those already emit it. Always is the setting that can produce two lists.

How do I stop a long breadcrumb trail from wrapping?

Two controls handle it. Collapse Middle Crumbs replaces everything between the first crumb and the current one with an ellipsis, and Max Title Length shortens each label to a set number of characters while keeping the full text as a tooltip. Together they hold a deep trail on one line.

Can I change the separator between breadcrumbs?

Yes. Separator Type is text or icon: text takes any character — the default is a forward slash, and arrows, dashes or chevrons all work — while icon takes any Elementor icon. If you choose icon and pick none, the text delimiter is used as the fallback.

Can breadcrumbs be styled as connected arrows?

Yes. The Trail style offers a Connected Arrow option that hides the separators and interlocks the crumbs into a single chevron strip. It needs crumb padding and a background colour to have room to draw, which is why it can look like nothing happened until those are set.

Can I rename the Home or Shop crumb?

Yes. Nine contexts have their own text override — home, blog, page, shop, category, search, author, tag and 404 — so “Home” can become “Start” and the WooCommerce shop crumb can carry your own store name. Home can also be replaced with an icon instead of a word.

Can I strip words out of the current page title?

Yes. Strip Words removes any words you list from the current post or page title before it is shown as the last crumb, which is how “Nav Menu Widget” becomes just “Nav Menu”. It is case sensitive, so list the exact form you use in titles.

Do Elementor breadcrumbs require Elementor Pro?

No. Breadcrumbs is a Sky Addons widget and runs on free Elementor. It also does not need a Theme Builder single template — drop it into any container on any page, or into a header template if you want one trail across the whole site.

Are these breadcrumbs accessible to screen readers?

Yes. The trail renders inside a nav landmark carrying an aria-label you can edit, defaulting to “Breadcrumb”, and the final crumb is marked aria-current so assistive tech announces which page the visitor is on. Both are on by default, not options you have to find.
