Two questions about breadcrumbs

[markg5267341]

First question is I set them on a page and try to find and replace on other pages with same sequence (had hyperlinks to start with ) and they appear as an ordered list

Second question have installed breadcrumbs and they move my content over to one side like so h Baleful Apparition  please advise

Where did you get this code?  It's not modern and it's not web standards based.

It looks like it was cut & pasted from a very old web site that used tables and old fashioned HTML styles.

Best advice, ditch what you have and start over with one of the pre-built Bootstrap Templates.

Go to File > New > Bootstrap Templates.

Choose a layout.

Hit Create button.

If you must copy content from older sources, use Edit > Paste Special (Ctrl+Shift+V) > Text Only. 

This will strip out unwanted formatting and junk from your source code.

Hi Nancy.

Can't really go from scratch as the 9000 pages are all hyperlinked.Am trying to slowly change code to update from older DW.

Happy to relink text in my breadcrumbs then find and replace as ithe will get rid of a lot of old code. my issue is the prebuIlt bootstrap only seems to work on my site one page at a time so when I want a link to say bestiary or spells each with over a thousand pages each the breadcrumbs appear as an ordered list. even whenow I use all the code the prebuIlt part provides

This is a train wreck.  You really need to start over with clean code and a database driven web site.  Anything less is just spitting into the wind.

Use WordPress.   It's database driven and WP won't let you paste bad code into your pages.  It strips the junk out.   Because it's dynamically driven, many tasks like breadcrumbs and navigation are automated for you in the WP dashboard.    Ideally, you could keep your old site running while you rebuild the new one with WordPress.  And when that's completed, turn the lights off on your old site.
