This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Template's Purpose: Use this template to place a FamilySearch Wiki style breadcrumb trail near the top of a Wiki article.
Purpose of a Breadcrumb Trail: A breadcrumb trail is used to display topics related to the subject of a Wiki page. It is a navigational sign post that also shows the context of where the current page fits in relation to a hierarchy of subjects in the Wiki. The topics in a breadcrumb usually appear in a hierarchy that drills down from general to more specific topics. The final topic in the breadcrumb trail usually reflects the title of the page where the trail is displayed. Think of the Wiki as a guidebook through the jungle of genealogical knowledge, and a breadcrumb trail is a reference tab that shows the section and chapter where that Wiki page fits in the guidebook.
The term comes from the trail of bread crumbs left by Hansel and Gretel in the fairy tale of the same name.
