When i add the category link on the post sidebar, i get the link with each of my category, once i click on it it will take to the page as following:
http://mysite/category/categoryName

then it lists all posts related to this cateory and the following breadcrum:
Category Archives: categoryName

1. How can i customize this page? for example adding the the side bar to the right. or an image.
2. How to change the breadcrumb title.

Thanks

    Hi csystem

    Customising this page would require a child theme and custom development. I’d recommend adding a Post Loop widget to a page that you’d like to display posts on. In the Additional field of the Post Loop widget you can add an argument like:

    cat=x
    

    Where x is the category ID you want to filter. This will let you choose the page template and add content around the widget.

    To add a breadcrumb to Vantage you’d need to investigate a plugin like:
