    Breadcrumbs are the things that lead you back to where you started - like in Hansel and Gretel.

    e.g on this page the breadcrumbs are under the DP logo:

    Breadcrumb plugins:

    It's easy enough to hard code breadcrumbs into your theme. I personally don't like the idea of using plugins for everything. If a WP update breaks a mission critical plugin, then you're screwed. If you've hard coded something into your theme, then you'll probably only have to deal with depreciated code, which can be fixed at your leisure.

    :)
