Hide Breadcrumb navigation from particular pages not the entire website
Hi. Breadcrumbs can be hidden using CSS. We don't need another config option, IMHO. I'll comment more soon (not before next week).
@chalin Let's suppose I have 2,000 docs pages and I want to hide breadcrumb on 200 pages. How can I do that?

Hi @samiahmedsiddiqui. How would you do it within the scope of this PR? (I'm asking because it will better help me understand your use case, how you see it resolved, and whether there might be an alternative solution that is already available.)
@chalin I am doing this by defining another parameter in page. If you add breadcrumbDisable: true in the file then the breadcrumb will be disable for that particular page.
@chalin @fekete-robert Just wanted to nudge about the PR. Any chance we can get it merged soon?
Hey, I have tried the changes in my own docsy website, and after I see the result, I'm curious about when we need this feature. Let me explain with an example:
Say I have a _index.md page with the following front matter:
---
title: How-tos
breadcrumbDisable: true
---
When I navigate to this "How-tos" page, the breadcrumb is not displayed. This part is OK. Then I navigate to one of the child pages of this "How-tos" page, say "Apply for your API key", and this child page will display the breadcrumb like below:
My Docs / How-tos / Apply for your API key
So, the user can still see "How-tos" in the breadcrumb. This makes me curious: then why would we hide "How-tos" from the breadcrumb in the first place? After all, users can still see it from the child pages.
Hopefully I explain it clearly.
@huanlin This pull request aims to selectively remove the breadcrumb navigation element from specific pages within the website, without affecting its display on other pages or child pages. As a concrete example, this change will prevent the breadcrumb from appearing on the Homepage, while still allowing it to be visible on all other pages, including those that link back to the Homepage as a parent.
