I made a page layout in SP2013, and enabled breadcrumbs, but the problem is the trail goes too far, it goes directly to the page name, for example:

    > Mysite > en > Pages > default

but I want it to stop at the site level, so

    > Mysite > en

I found the breadcrumb code in the .html file

        <!--MS:<asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="PlaceHolderTitleBreadcrumb" runat="server">-->
            <!--SPM:<SharePoint:ListSiteMapPath
                runat="server"
                SiteMapProviders="SPXmlContentMapProvider"
                RenderCurrentNodeAsLink="false"
                PathSeparator=""
                CssClass="ms-breadcrumb"
                NodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbNode"
                CurrentNodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbCurrentNode"
                RootNodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbRootNode"
                NodeImageOffsetX="0"
                NodeImageOffsetY="289"
                NodeImageWidth="16"
                NodeImageHeight="16"
                NodeImageUrl="/_layouts/15/images/fgimg.png?rev=23"
                RTLNodeImageOffsetX="0"
                RTLNodeImageOffsetY="312"
                RTLNodeImageWidth="16"
                RTLNodeImageHeight="16"
                RTLNodeImageUrl="/_layouts/15/images/fgimg.png?rev=23"
                HideInteriorRootNodes="true"
                SkipLinkText=""/>-->
        <!--ME:</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>-->

But I am not sure how to change it to fix it. I think I need to modify the sitemapprovider value. I found this page https://ktskumar.wordpress.com/2008/04/14/sharepoint-navigation-providers-part-1
but I am still not sure.

Does anyone know?

Thanks

just limit the number of characters in the breadcrumb with the help of CSS.

use ellipses property: http://quirksmode.org/css/user-interface/textoverflow.html

elipse limits the number of characters of the word, but I'm looking for levels of breadcrumb which is different.

kindly give me a screenshot to get more details.

Well its basically this

Currently it shows this:

    > Mysite > en > Pages > default

I want it to look like this:

    > Mysite > en

Very simple, just split the array by > and splice last 2.

Can you give me HTML rendered on the page for this much part?

I will write JavaScript for you.
