51 
52    } elseif ( is_page() && $post->post_parent ) {
53      $parent_id  = $post->post_parent;
54      $breadcrumbs = array();
55      while ($parent_id) {
56        $page = get_page($parent_id);
57        $breadcrumbs[] = '<a href="' . get_permalink($page->ID) . '">' . get_the_title($page->ID) . '</a>';
58        $parent_id  = $page->post_parent;
59      }
60      $breadcrumbs = array_reverse($breadcrumbs);
61      foreach ($breadcrumbs as $crumb) echo $crumb . ' ' . $delimiter . ' ';
62      echo $currentBefore;
63      the_title();
64      echo $currentAfter;
65 
66    } elseif ( is_search() ) {
67      echo $currentBefore . 'Search results for '' . get_search_query() . ''' . $currentAfter;
68 
69    } elseif ( is_tag() ) {

85      echo __('Page') . ' ' . get_query_var('paged');
86      if ( is_category() || is_day() || is_month() || is_year() || is_search() || is_tag() || is_author() ) echo ')';
87    }
88 
89    echo '</div>';
90 
91  }
92}
93?>

After that put following code in header.php file.

`1`	`<?php` `if` `(function_exists('wordpress_breadcrumbs')) wordpress_breadcrumbs(); ?>`

After putting above code we can see the breadcrumbs as following;

Home » Parent Page » Sub Page1 » Sub Page2

Home » Category » Subcategory » Post Name
