-
Install Health Check and Troubleshooting Plugin:
- To troubleshoot your website, install the Health Check and Troubleshooting plugin from the WordPress repository. You can refer to the detailed steps and screenshot provided in our KB article.
-
Enable Troubleshooting Mode:
- Once you have installed the plugin, navigate to Tools → Site Health → Troubleshooting inside your WordPress admin area and click on Enable Troubleshooting Mode. This will deactivate all plugins and switch to the default theme.

Check Theme File for Breadcrumbs Function:

Navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Appearance → Theme File Editor → header.php (in case of Classic Theme) and add the provided code snippet. You can find detailed instructions and a screenshot in our KB article.
-
Check for Conflict with Theme:
- If the issue persists, switch to your current theme and ensure that the breadcrumbs function is added to your theme file. Validate the Schema Markup code to identify any conflicts with your theme. If needed, reach out to your theme’s support for further assistance.
