Find out how to remove the Genesis breadcrumbs settings from WordPress customizer with code.
One practice I recommend, as a good fan of minimalism, is to remove all elements of a child theme that you will not be using.
This is especially useful for your customers, as you will reduce the noise and encourage them to have a better view of the settings that really need to be changed.
An ideal place to apply this useful ‘cleaning’ and leave only the 100% necessary elements is the WordPress customizer. Why?
Because thanks to its ease of use and to the fact that it allows you to see changes in real time, it is the ideal place for your clients to make the changes they need.
For example, one of the items you can remove if you’re not going to use it is the breadcrumb section of Genesis (under Theme Settings).
