The RDFa Breadcrumbs extension allows users to include breadcrumbs on pages which will get RDFa markup. It does not depend on categories but allows the definition on the individual pages.

Usage

{{#breadcrumbs:
   [[Main Page]]
   | {{ll|Manual:Extensions|Extensions}}
   | [[Extension:RDFa Breadcrumbs|RDFa Breadcrumbs]]
   | ... }}

This will look like this:

In addition it will include RDFa markup so that Google will recognize it as Breadcrumb.
