Hi Ben,

Happy New Year.

I am facing problems with structured data errors in Google search Console, and its something that I am unable to solve, as it seems to be a theme related issue. I maintain a few other sites also (using other themes) and I am not facing this issue other than on this site using Virtue Premium.

These are structured data errors, and what I am getting is:

Missing: author
Missing: entry-title
Missing: updated

This is appearing on posts as well as on pages (including portfolio, and staff pages)

I had written to you earlier, and you said that no error can be found in the Structured Data Testing Tool. Apparently, Google uses different testing algorithms for the Search Console, and the Structured Data Testing tool. So errors can be found in the Search Console, but not in the Testing Tool. Even in Google Product Forums this problem has been notified by others here.

A solution has been given by Yoast, as well as on this site.

This is a serious problem, so hope you find a solution, and if needed update the theme to resolve the issue.

Regards,

Anirban
