Hi, great post and nice additional references.

I was wondering which schema tag is more appropriate for blog content: text or description? I am using description on my site http://socialsubway.com.

Thank you again!

In reply to Paul Weir.

the example code was removed from the previous comments. See below:

” ‘thumbnailUrl’)); -?->”

Added hyphens(-) as the code is getting removed automatically.

I also faced this challenge. The solution is:

‘thumbnailUrl’)); ?>

You can pass the extra keywords in the_post_thumbnail function (see the example above). I hope this is helpful. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Hello.
Good info on Schema Markup.

But if I would like to add a particular schema and some customized items to the post in WordPress manually, how do I do it. For example, my blog is about Windows errors and solutions, what type of schema and how do i apply it?

Thanks for the post! I have a couple of questions. Some of my blogs are using schema.org ready themes and pass the structured data testing tool with dozens of markup results and no apparent errors. I wonder if that’s enough though. The tags are rather “generic”, simply saying which is a headline and which is the content of a post. I wonder if that’s enough? If I have a blog where a post happens to include a review, shouldn’t I include the review tags as well?

Which brings me to my next question, how can I markup the contents of a specific wordpress post? I wonder if using the “source” mode and manually adding the schema.org tags would work. I guess I’ll have to try it out.

Kevin,

Thanks for this post. I’m trying to get schema.org working for my blog and am meeting with a good amount of success — except I can’t make my featured image to show as itemprop=”image”. I think it’s because the HTML for that image is crafted in a separate function, but I don’t know. Might you have any advice?

Paul
