I have used the following function for breadcrumbs on every site to date, but todays site has 3 custom post types and the client would like the breadcrumbs working, e.g. instead of "home / wines / naire blanco" we just get "home / / naire blanco".
function the_breadcrumb() {
echo '<ol class="breadcrumb" itemprop="breadcrumb">';
if (!is_home()) {
echo '<li><a href="';
echo get_option('home');
echo '">';
echo 'Home';
echo '</a></li>';
if (is_category() || is_single() || is_post_type()) {
echo '<li>';
the_category(' </li><li> ');
echo get_post_type(' </li><li> ');
if (is_single()) {
echo '</li><li>';
the_title();
echo '</li>';
}
} elseif (is_page()) {
if($post->post_parent){
$anc = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
foreach ( $anc as $ancestor ) {
$output = $output . '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($ancestor).'" title="'.get_the_title($ancestor).'">'.get_the_title($ancestor).'</a></li> ';
}
echo $output;
echo '<strong title="'.$title.'"> '.$title.'</strong>';
} else {
echo '<li><a class="active" href="';
echo the_permalink();
echo '">';
echo the_title();
echo '</a></li>';
}
}
}
elseif (is_tag()) {single_tag_title();}
elseif (is_day()) {echo"<li>Archive for "; the_time('F jS, Y'); echo'</li>';}
elseif (is_month()) {echo"<li>Archive for "; the_time('F, Y'); echo'</li>';}
elseif (is_year()) {echo"<li>Archive for "; the_time('Y'); echo'</li>';}
elseif (is_author()) {echo"<li>Author Archive"; echo'</li>';}
elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) {echo "<li>Blog Archives"; echo'</li>';}
elseif (is_search()) {echo"<li>Search Results"; echo'</li>';}
echo '</ol>';
}
As you can see in the code, I have tried to add || is_post_type() after is_category() || is_single() with an echo get_post_type() but this didn't do anything.
Would appreciate some guidance please.
Thanks

The issue with most breadcrumb functions is that it relies on the $post object on all pages. Not only is the $post global totally unreliable (see my post here), it might not even contain the data that we need, even if the $post global is not compromised
The $post global on archive pages (which includes category, tag, date, taxonomy term, author and custom post type archive) contains the first post in the loop before the loop. It is not always true that the first post is from the selected archive (the archive page you are on), which means that the info you are looking for might be incorrect, even though the $post global is not compromised. Conditions where the first post might not be from the selected archive is posts that are injected through custom stickies and the the_posts filter.
I have recently rewritten one of my very old breadcrumb functions which makes use of the $GLOBALS['wp_the_query'] object and the queried object saved in the $GLOBALS['wp_the_query'] global. This way, we have a 99.999% reliable breadcrumb that does not rely on the $post global or any compromised data.
Here is the function: (Requires PHP 5.4+. Also, feel free to alter as necessary)
function get_hansel_and_gretel_breadcrumbs()
{
// Set variables for later use
$here_text = __( 'You are currently here!' );
$home_link = home_url('/');
$home_text = __( 'Home' );
$link_before = '<span typeof="v:Breadcrumb">';
$link_after = '</span>';
$link_attr = ' rel="v:url" property="v:title"';
$link = $link_before . '<a' . $link_attr . ' href="%1$s">%2$s</a>' . $link_after;
$delimiter = ' » '; // Delimiter between crumbs
$before = '<span class="current">'; // Tag before the current crumb
$after = '</span>'; // Tag after the current crumb
$page_addon = ''; // Adds the page number if the query is paged
$breadcrumb_trail = '';
$category_links = '';
/**
* Set our own $wp_the_query variable. Do not use the global variable version due to

*/
$wp_the_query = $GLOBALS['wp_the_query'];
$queried_object = $wp_the_query->get_queried_object();
// Handle single post requests which includes single pages, posts and attatchments
if ( is_singular() )

/**

You can simply call it as follow
echo get_hansel_and_gretel_breadcrumbs();
where needed
This breadcrumb function takes care of custom post types as well

Excellent! Works the code of accepted answer (of Pieter Goosen).
Note: Just added a little task more. Make a validation check of that function before calling it, this way:
<?php
if(function_exists('get_hansel_and_gretel_breadcrumbs')):
echo get_hansel_and_gretel_breadcrumbs();
endif;
?>
Additionally, I saved that function into a file named breadcrumbs.php in project root folder and included it in functions.php file using include_once('breadcrumbs.php'); to be more organized.
function get_hansel_and_gretel_breadcrumbs()
{
// Set variables for later use
$here_text = __( 'You are currently here!' );
$home_link = home_url('/');
$home_text = __( 'Home' );
$link_before = '<span typeof="v:Breadcrumb">';
$link_after = '</span>';
$link_attr = ' rel="v:url" property="v:title"';
$link = $link_before . '<a' . $link_attr . ' href="%1$s">%2$s</a>' . $link_after;
$delimiter = ' » '; // Delimiter between crumbs
$before = '<span class="current">'; // Tag before the current crumb
$after = '</span>'; // Tag after the current crumb
$page_addon = ''; // Adds the page number if the query is paged
$breadcrumb_trail = '';
