I don’t know if this is related to the component itself [Breadcrumb Links](https://meta.discourse.org/t/breadcrumb-links/325372), or if there’s something else I can do to fix it?

Wrong breadcrumb for the sub category “Other Projects”

When I change the title for the same topic:

 ![SCR-20250811-qqnp](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/3/3/2/332fe6328107705a55a5c71873fb43a16adc9b7e.png)

I opened all the other topics in the same category and they all work as expected.

I even tried to copy the whole content and title, create new topic, same result. It shows the wrong breadcrumb.

Now, I tried a bunch of different titles and it seems to have some pattern here, but I just don’t understand why…?

🛑 = shows the wrong breadcrumb `Home / General`, unless something else stated  
✅ = shows the right breadcrumb `Home / Tiago - Music / Other Projects`

3ple 2015 - 2019 🛑  
3ple 2015 2019 🛑  
3ple 2015 new title 🛑  
3ple2015 new title 🛑  
9ple9 new title 🛑 doesn’t even show “General”, just “Home”  
2ple9 new title 🛑 shows another category, “Home / Staff” (it’s not even the category’s number: `/c/staff/3`)

2ple new new title ✅  
3ple is on the way ✅  
p3le 2015 - 2019 ✅  
p3les 2015 2019 ✅  
New title on the way ✅  
New title 2015 - 2019 ✅  
New title 2015 2019 ✅  
New title (2015 - 2019) ✅  
New title (2015 2019) ✅

I’m wondering if this could be some kind of glitch with Discourse itself and the titles, or the component?
