Title: Product errors in Google search console
Post by: bemtele on June 10, 2022, 12:29:37 PM
Google search console gives errors related to products. It says:

Either "offers", "review", or "aggregateRating" should be specified

Please how do I solve this issue?

Do you have ratings or reviews on your listings?

@bemtele

Do you mean: User Rating Plugin: https://osclasspoint.com/osclass-plugins/rating-and-review/user-rating-plugin-i57

If so then I don't have. Is that the problem here? I understand this plugin is to rate users but google is asking for product reviews.
Or does it relate? I kinda don't have an idea about this.

@bemtele
I am just asking. If no, then it is completely irrelevant to even think about setting any value. Google simple expects something here but if your site does not use rating then this warning should stay there.

Alright!, I was following some SEO tips and the blogger suggest to correct any error in search console because some may be impacting website SEO. I decided to check and I got that error but if it will not have any impact on my site SEO then I am cool with that.

Thank you

Also, can you check this topic for me: https://forums.osclasspoint.com/osclass/google-say-submitted-url-marked-noindex/

Even though MB-Themes has replied to me, I still need a second opinion as to why google says my search page can't be indexed and that it is marked as "noindex" .  Is it normal? is your website search page (https://domain.com/search) marked as "noindex" according to google?

I just want to be sure Google is in Love with my website by fixing any shortcomings in the console. I hope you understand me

This doesn't work at all.... Solution is way more complicated than just wright extra tags in item.php....
You get duplicated content and even more errors in Google by adding more snippets in more places.
The solution is to delete google snippets in item.php completely and focus on file structured data which is in oc-includes....

Can you kindly provide a step-by-step approach to this problem? especially the file structured data you mentioned in the oc-includes?

Post by: mwindey on June 30, 2022, 06:13:37 PM
Took me a full day off work to find this out   ::)
File is in oc-includes but tricky because some snippets are normally not there but i gave them a function just so that the do not give warnings anymore....

Look at the file and give it a try yourself...If you play with some you will get there  :P

Post by: bemtele on July 02, 2022, 11:46:56 PM
This is my full structured data file so far....Needs still some improvement regarding aggregate rating but works so far perfect for now in google.
Ratingvalue is set to 3 stars because not all things on your site can have a five  :D :D
Copy, paste and test some links in search console  ;) 8) ....
Remember to delete all Google snippets in item.php or you will have duplicates.
Note: I will only leave my hard work here untill my mind decides to delete it  8) 8)

Thank you very much. I moved my site to VPS, and everything has been messed up, including Email sending. So I am solving it. After that, I will test your structured data code and give feedback here. Once again thank you so much.

Why do you think it doesn't work? I registered what Google requires and as it recommends. The task is to make it clear to Google that this is a product, how much money it costs, what currency and publication period. He does not require anything else. And you in your code indicated the rating of which does not exist!

@vlad7

When i used the snippets you provided i was getting errors in console not warnings. Probably because i also use rating plugin and the meta generator plugin.
The file structured data creates aggregating snippets as standard but it uses the comments... Since only some people use the comments it will show no rating in google and for me personally, if there is 5 star in my search on google results i would visit that site first...
 
There is also no need to use extra snippets in themes because the file was there already so why invent the wheel twice.
Originally in structured data there is:

  "aggregateRating": {
    "@type": "AggregateRating",
    "ratingValue": "<?php echo round(osc_count_item_comments_rating(), 1); ?>",
    "bestRating": "5",
    "worstRating": "0",
    "ratingCount": "<?php echo (osc_count_item_comments() > 0 ? osc_count_item_comments() : 1); ?>",
    "reviewCount": "<?php echo (osc_count_item_comments() > 0 ? osc_count_item_comments() : 1); ?>"
  }
  <?php osc_run_hook('structured_data_footer'); ?>
}
</script>
