About the BreadcrumbList, this is how the plugin works:
As first step, the plugin recovers all the post’s categories, ordering them by parent category, so the first category or categories in the list will be them without parent category, and then by category name. If you use Yoast SEO and you set the primary category, this one category will be the category passed as ListItem with position 1 in the JSON-LD Schema. If not using Yoast SEO, the first category without parent category will be ListItem with position 1 in the JSON-LD Schema.
Once the plugin set the main category, it will check with all the rest categories if some of these is a subcategory, and the first one occurrence will be the ListItem with position 2 in the JSON-LD Schema.
