• Hi there, Google is actively accepting the “review” schema again. Can we have the plugin updated accordingly?

    We are currently using “product” for our reviews but the results are not optimal: we have several errors and the microdata are not appearing on the search engines. If we try using “review” we have errors as well, there still is a “product” markup appearing and creating issues.

    Hi, here you are:

    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/the-white-chamber/
    Structured as PRODUCT
    As per the Google advanced results test for markups, IMAGE and PRICE are missing (yet the other values are validated, and if you check for “the white chamber recensione” on Google it shows our result as first, with its rating (yet no stars).
    IMAGE and PRICE are elements we never used and we never had a problem before. They create a critical error and could justify why stars and the other GSD (author and stufff) are not appearing anymore. We understand this is a change from Google and this is why we want to revert to review structures.

    But this is what happens when we go REVIEW structure: ratings disappear and markups are not taken into account anymore. In the Google advanced results test, the critical error reports that none of offers, review or aggregatereview are specified.
    To show this behaviour, please test against this article that is intentionally left as REVIEW in your pluging:
    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/strike-force/

    Please note that review markups are correctly showing for other websites (like it did in the past for us, before this change):
    https://www.filmtv.it/film/26033/strike-force/recensioni/ is showing stars and author name. If you check in the GSD test they have no errors.

    Hello,

    Yes I tested your url there is no error in review schema https://prnt.sc/xtxUhyE1YfB-

    It depends on Google it will show review in rating in search or not. If there is no error in test then schema data is ok.

    Please wait and how it works after some days.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    the matter is not solved. Please see the screenshots:

    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/temp/thewhitechamber.JPG for
    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/the-white-chamber/ (Product – 2 critical errors, which I guess can be considered expected)

    and https://www.tanadelcobra.com/temp/strikeforce.JPG for
    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/strike-force/ (Review – 1 critical error which is not expected)

    Any snippet with critical error will not generate stars to appear, it is not only a Google decision on our website. This error is just preventing the possibility (we had stars in the past indeed).

    Thanks for your reply.
    Your answer is useful for the PRODUCT GSD, but I’m trying to resolve the issue with the REVIEW GSD. ??

    As previously reported, this is what happens when we use REVIEW structure: in the Google advanced results test, the critical error reports that none of offers, review or aggregatereview are specified. It seems to me that the value REVIEW is not specified by the plugin. Here is the screenshot of how we filled the values in the plugin: https://www.tanadelcobra.com/temp/strikeWPSEO.JPG. Should I be wrong and missing a step, it would be great if you could indicate how I can fix the matter.
    You can see the error in the Google advanced test against this link:
    https://www.tanadelcobra.com/strike-force/

    Thanks

    Edit: just to clarify, in WPSEO the Product is unflagged and Review is flagged. It seems REVIEW is providing to Google a wrong information.
