    Hi Themehorse gang,

    I was wondering if you could provide an update for Clean Retina Pro to fix the Google Structured Data Errors: Missing: Author, Missing: Updated. Currently its show that only my pages (posts seem to be correct) come up as having errors when tested.

    Thanks for your help in these matters,

    Trevor “The Burger Nerd”

    Hi,

    Wondering if someone there would mind responding to this. It’s been a few days already.

    Thanks,

    Hi Theburgernerd,

    We have researched for Google structure data errors for pages and found that for pages there will be no author to place the vcard and author and no published date in pages to put update. You can also test the pages of WordPress default themes http://twentyfourteendemo.wordpress.com/

    Thank you!

    Hi guys,

    I have tested the theme on Google’s Webmaster site https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets and it is filled full of errors. I mentioned in a previous post about H1 H2 headings that 2014 is bad example of what Google (the world’s largest search engine) expects for structure. If you run http://twentyfourteendemo.wordpress.com/ through the testing you will see what I mean.

    Unfortunately Google is the king of search engines by a landslide. Therefore, what is good for Google is good for us. So if Google “suggests” a theme to have certain elements within it, then we can assume it has at the very least some small influence on page ranking for websites…which of course means it affects the amount of traffic we receive.

    Aside from using 2014 as a guideline of the theme’s structure, is there a particular reason Themehorse has for not wanting to fix these errors? Does not fixing them have any benefit that outweighs fixing them to comply with what Google expects websites to have?

    I hope you reconsider your decision.

    Thanks,

    Trevor

    Hi theburgernerd,
    This vcard and author we add only in post as we have already mentioned. Its great that you shared a more information with us. We are still confused where do we add the vcard and author it pages. If you really want this vcard and author then its better to create a child theme and add vcard and author. We will also research on it and if it is necessary then sure will will update it.

    Thank a lot
    Thank you!
