It seems that since the "Breadcrumb" has changed, my hub traffic dropped. Is there a way that I can change my "Breadcrumb" on my hub?
I have searched the areas for my hub and can not locate them.
Any and all help would be great for this newbie.
thank you

Breadcrumbs didn't work for Hansel and Gretal, either. Is this about the heirarchical subject line >> >> > or another name for "tags"? We used to select our own tags, but the powers-that-be decided they should be automated.
In many or most cases, I think the powers are right. Some bizarre choices do often appear, however.
Hi Rochelle
Thank you for your reply.
The Breadcrumbs are what is at the top of the Hub to show how you got there like the one in my K Mart not honoring replacement warranty at the top it has my Phyl>> Business and Employment > Customer Service that is the Breadcrumb you can click on any of the links and it will take you back to that section.
Since this was changed I no longer can find my (so far) 2 hubs.
That is why I was asking if there is a way that I can change the breadcrumb on my hub so that it can be found again.
I am fine with, as you say, powers-that-be after all they have a successful site here.
thank you again I will look for you, if you don't mind, and read up maybe I can get some good pointers from your work, if its ok with you?
Thank you
Phyl
Thanks for the information on the crumbs-- I get it, a trail that leads back home or (the other way) into the woods.
I'm still not sure what you are looking for-- can you find your hubs by going to your account --the pull down menu under your name at the top? Maybe I am not understanding.
No need to ask permission to read other people's hubs... we all want readers, and are glad to have more.
Hi Rochelle
I called a friend and they said when they put the titles of the 2 hubs in the search they don't come up. I can see them in my account and profile, just not in the search. I am thinking if I unpublished them then republished maybe that would help.
Cool thanks
Phyl
Unpublishing and publishing will not help you. You have to wait for Google to find the hub. there is a way for you to notify them of the hub, but I simply wait.
Hi Millionaire Tips
Thank you. Its not Google, its here in Hub Pages that the search didn't work. Maybe you are right, if I just wait, I guess being a newbie with only 3 hubs under my belt I am over zealous.
Thank you again
Phyl
If you unpublished a hub and then republish it, I wonder if you could prove your date if someone stole it. They do say it is bad to unpublish hubs. I have done it to do major editing but won't do it again.
Hi brakel2
Thats a very good point. Thank you.
I did take Millionaire Tips advice and I waited. Now I do see them in the search and my Breadcrumbs have changed. Being new you don't know all the little things yet.
Thank you
Phyl
Phyl, you are welcome. We all keep learning every day. We're all in this together.
brakel2
thank you
have a great weekend
(at least it is by our own choice)

I think it's great that HubPages is shifting more focus to authors, which should help keeping readers engaged. While I do like the changes that HP made with the breadcrumbs, I discovered two problems with the new method.The old method included a full breadcrumb navigation to Main Topic and...

The title of a hub of mine was changed a few days back. But its URL remains unchanged and thus appears to be some other hub's URL. The URL must be changed to make it match the hub it is linked with. I do not know how to attain this goal. Please help me do it.

There has been a major change on the HP platform that was not announced to the writing community.Go to one of your Hubs and look at the top where the breadcrumb navigation is. It now reads: your subdomain > main Topic category only (I presume that this is not the case for...

I know we can completely change our hub titles but I wondered if the first title we used is still ours or any there after for that matter even though we changed it?
