Breadcrumbs

Breadcrumbs are the navigational trail that lets you know which page you are now on as well as each page you visited before arriving at the current page. The breadcrumb trail appears in the top-left corner of every page.

Each page shown in the breadcrumb trail is a link. Click a link to return to the named page. In the breadcrumb trail illustrated below, the user is currently in an individual's profile:
