Great concept that really helped the usability of our site for customers. The support team was phenomenal when it came to setup help and support. Would definitely recommend this app and happy to have it in our store!
Finally I have full breacrumbs thank to this app. Easy to install and configure, you just need to set your navigation up properly. Support alone was 5-star, Alex was very nice and helpful! Recommended
Ive been using this app for almost a year and it does exactly what it's supposed to. Recently for some reason I was getting an error on schema markup and sent the info to Alex. Within an hour an half it was corrected and I was able to resubmit the pages to Google for indexing. Great support and customer service! Thank you!
Thanks for posting this great review. Yes, I'm always trying to make functional improvements or added metadata to help with SEO. The app supports the BreadcrumbList schema in JSON-LD, which is now rendered server-side at page-load time.
This breadcrumbs app does exactly what i wanted it to do, on any product page it registers what menu it is in by mapping the navigation menu you have created within shopify and even works for our 4 level mega-menu which is great! I had a wee issue with a single area not mapping, contacted Alex who was great at getting it resolved - turned out i had an accidental space at the end of a title so it wasn't registering. Managed to get it fixed within 24 hours so very happy!
There is literally nowhere to contact you. There is no email provided. I have a problem with your application and it is not possible to write to you. Why create an application without being able to contact the creator.
I'm so sorry you had this experience. All my contact details are listed here on the Shopify App store for every one of my apps. Shopify control the (very elegant) design of these app store pages and I appreciate that recently they have removed the "Get support" button in favour of the "Support: Send a message" link below. I suspect this may have made it harder for you to find it.
In response to your review I emailed you right away as I understand you had encountered a problem in my app, which I then resolved within 2 hours of learning about it. I've also added my contact details to the in-app "Help" page in case any other users can't find it.
For anyone else struggling to get in touch, please either click "Send a message" or use the email address listed below. You'll receive an automated response from me instantly asking for specific information about your problem (store URLs, storefront password if applicable, current category setup etc). As soon as I receive your reply, I will get back to you urgently, typically within 24 hours. If you don't hear back from me, please check your SPAM filter, because I always reply.
Kind regards, Alex
A must installed app. Makes navigating your shop easier.
Helpful support team. You can not lose with this. I really recommend this for every Shopify shop.
Very simple app that tremendously improved navigation on my site. Great product, highly recommended!
Awesome app & developer! Thank you so much Alex!
Thank you for the review! Appreciate your taking the time to post it.
Very happy to use this app. I just added this app and meet some problems, and I feedback to the support team, and he efficiently solved them. I am really appreciated the speed of problem-solving. Very Good!
Thank you for that. I always try to get back to customers as quickly as I can, even though I'm also working full-time. I think in the last 7 years, I've always managed to do it within a business day.
Not happy : i took the app to enhance my SEO but the app is generating canonical URLs on product pages, which is the worst for the website's SEO.
It's very difficult to reply to your review because I think you've fundamentally misunderstood how Shopify works:
1. My app does not create or generate any URLs.
All URLs are generated by Shopify. For example, for every product, Shopify offer multiple URLs. There is the short-form URL, for example (https://breadcrumbs-uncomplicated.myshopify.com/products/technology-computers-desktops-g30ab).
Then there is a long-form URL for every collection that contains that product, for example (https://breadcrumbs-uncomplicated.myshopify.com/collections/technology-computers-desktops-asus/products/technology-computers-desktops-g30ab).
Notice how there's /collections/collection-name in there. Shopify search always generates short-form URLs. Some themes use short-form URLs. Some themes use long-form URLs. Your products are accessible by both.
My app works with both. In fact more than that, it actually tries to help you manage both in whatever way you find most intuitive.
2. Canonical URLs are implicit, never 'generated'
Google says: "A canonical URL is the URL of the best representative page from a group of duplicate pages, according to Google". Because Shopify generates duplicate URLs for each product, you've got a choice. You can either tell Google which is the "best representative page" or not.
3. It's your theme that inserts link rel="canonical" tags.
My app does not generate any link tags. It never ever uses the word 'canonical'. These are generated by your theme. Your issue is with your theme developer. Incidentally, I think your theme developer is right to use rel=canonical link tags. After years of working in this space, I've learned that search engines don't really rank on trivial hints, they rank based on importance signals (such as PageRank based on back-links). The only thing you can achieve with SEO is to avoid confusing them and avoid reducing your rank. Canonical linking is a good example of something that avoids confusing them.
4. My app uses only the links you give it.
The breadcrumbs are generated only using links that you give the app. Everything comes from Shopify Navigation. I don't make anything up. You can optionally choose to use the 'short-link fix' (disabled by default) which allows you to compose product links on collection pages using both the collection name and the product name, but again these link components only come from what you've given the app in Shopify Navigation.
5. My app helps SEO, not hinders it.
As well as generating a visible breadcrumb, my app also (optionally) generates a JSON-LD breadcrumb in HTML. This is structured metadata that tells search engines how the breadcrumb hierarchy is constructed. It has nothing to do with canonical links. It uses only the links that are already used in the breadcrumb, i.e. only links that you have given it in Shopify Navigation.
6. We've discussed this already by email.
I've emailed you about this but recently you've stopped responding, I assume because you're busy as I know storeowners are. I have given significant time to trying to help you with your canonical links, even though they have nothing to do with my app. My line on customer support is that I try to help wherever I can. In spite of all these efforts, you've still left my app an unfair, unjustified and mis-informed 1-star review. I will continue to help in whatever way I'm able, in whatever way you'll let me and whatever way is technically possible within the confines of how the web works, how search engines work and how Shopify works.
