Google search console breadcrumbs issue

by v12mike » Wed Jan 15, 2020 7:38 pm

V2.6.0 and v2.6.1 have an issue which also exists in prosilver for phpBB 3.3.0 where the Google search console complains of missing fields such as "id" in breadcrumbs.

I did not see this until I updated a live forum which Google indexes.

i have a fix for this which I will commit and label later today.

Excellent, thanks (I have another issue with PM icons, which I have added in a separate discussion)

Hi,

Looks like that may not be the correct fix (I may be wrong)... take a look at this discussion, specifically the post by 3Di further down:

What's your thoughts?

I have tested the fix that I made, and Google Search Console accepts it as valid code, so I will live with that for now, and wait to see what gets put into Prosilver.

I don't have much knowledge of the purpose of the extra fields (such as "id").
