XF 2.2 itemreviewed error in Google search console

[Nicolas FR]

Hello,

I get this error in the Google search console :

Object type not valid for the "itemReviewed" field

This is concerned

"aggregateRating": {
            "@type": "AggregateRating",
            "ratingCount": "1",
            "ratingValue": "5"
        },

In this page : Cours vidéo JAVASCRIPT (Pierre Giraud) | Cocori Web | La communauté

Do i have to set something to prevent this kind of error ?
Thanks !

This should be disregarded. Google has decided to arbitrarily limit the data types they allow ratings for. This is not explicitly limited by the structured data specification and other services do indeed display the ratings.

Thanks for the reply. I got it.

For those looking for an alternative to ignoring this issue:

All my resources are downloadable programs, so it made sense to change the schema type from CreativeWork to SoftwareApplication.

This is the list of types that Google allows, pick a type that matches your content

http://schema.org/Book
http://schema.org/Course
http://schema.org/CreativeWorkSeason
http://schema.org/CreativeWorkSeries
http://schema.org/Episode
http://schema.org/Event
http://schema.org/Game
http://schema.org/HowTo
http://schema.org/LocalBusiness
http://schema.org/MediaObject
http://schema.org/Movie
http://schema.org/MusicPlaylist
http://schema.org/MusicRecording
http://schema.org/Organization
http://schema.org/Product
http://schema.org/Recipe
http://schema.org/SoftwareApplication

Fairly easy to do via Template Modifciation, just do like this:

Template: xfrm_resource_view

Find:
"@type": "CreativeWork",

Replace:

"@type": "SoftwareApplication",

^ replace with your type

Then test using this tool:

Rich Results Test - Google Search Console

search.google.com

It will tell you what fields you need to add (ignore optional fields unless you wanna add them). Check the types expecting for each field at https://schema.org to ensure compliance . These are typically just text, but sometimes nested objects are required which might be too complicated for noobs.

Add them and re-run the test until it's happy

This ended up being all I needed to put in the replace:

"@type": "SoftwareApplication",
"operatingSystem": "Windows",
"applicationCategory": "Gaming",

Hmmm.....I can't find the template "xfrm_resource_view"?

Hmmm.....I can't find the template "xfrm_resource_view"?

If you don't have XF's Resource Manager installed, you won't see it... but it is a default template for that add-on.
