macros - Breadcrumb not showing in Umbraco Site -

i created partial view macro file in umbraco backoffice breadcrumb. inserted macro masterpage , ran site, couldn't see anthing. no breadcrumb navigation, no errors, jsut nothing. wrong?

please see breadcrumb code below

@inherits umbraco.web.macros.partialviewmacropage  @*     snippet makes breadcrumb of parents using unordered html list.      how works:     - uses ancestors() method parents , generates links visitor can go     - outputs name of current page (without link) *@  @{ var selection = currentpage.ancestors(); }  @if (selection.any()) {     <ul class="breadcrumb">         @* each page in ancestors collection have been ordered level (so start highest top node first) *@         @foreach (var item in selection.orderby("level"))         {             <li><a href="@item.url">@item.name</a> <span class="divider">/</span></li>         }          @* display current page last item in list *@         <li class="active">@currentpage.name</li>     </ul> } 

please me out. thanks.

so below standard breadcrumb code use, in partial view sits on master page

    @inherits umbracotemplatepage @{     var selection = model.content.ancestors().tolist();     if (selection.any())         {         var currentpagetitle = model.content.name;         <ul class="breadcrumb">             @foreach (var item in selection.orderby("level"))                 {                 var pagetitle = item.name;                 <li>                     <a href="@item.url" title="@pagetitle">                         @pagetitle                     </a>                 </li>                 }             <li class="active">                 @currentpagetitle             </li>         </ul>         } } 

as mentioned before show on pages under home page see example image of content tree below.

all pages going down , under of them show bread crumb , home page wont (because doesn't have ancestors i.e. first page in tree).

i got feeling content tree not nested 1 above i.e. pages on same level home page, can please add picture of content tree looks like.
