Random url test from your site using the https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool# Looks fine from here other than DBSEO seems to be doubling up the structure.

Actually it's showing double the structure because I have an addon to display breadcrumbs a 2nd time, above the users browsing this thread box. So, that's intentional.
