Adding Breadcrumb Feature to SharePoint 2013

We have become very used to the breadcrumbs in SharePoint 2010 and the lack of them on the subsites in SharePoint 2013 is very disconcerting to the users that I com in contact with. The solution is rather simple, which is a nice. A thanks to Donal McCarthy and Marin for the information.

This is what we were used to in 2010:

1. Open the site in SharePoint Designer 2013
2. Create a copy of seattle.master (if you don't already have one)
   
3. Open the copy for editing and search for: ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox  -should be near line 360
4. Delete the style=”display:none;” at the end of the line.
5. Delete the Visible=”false” immediately underneath.
6. Delete the ThemeKey="v15breadcrumb" a few lines below -this displays the image
   Should look like:
   
7. Click Save
8. Make the edited master page the default master page.
   
   
9. Refresh a page on your site.
   Example:
   
   

Note: A side affect of modifying the master pages is the Change the Look Feature no longer works. 

The Cause For A New Beginning

Looking back at my SharePoint adventure I have had so much help from other people's blogs, but the information has been scattered and difficult to locate. The goal here is to create something to give back to the community that can assist the newbies to the most advanced among us. I'm going to start with some of the basics because most of us have explained them THOUSANDS of times, but haven't bothered writing them down because there was always another request leaving no time. Forgive the old SharePoint 2010 info but there are some that still haven't gotten to the SharePoint 2013.
