Hello YASR users! Today is an important day! In fact, from version 0.9.8 (for the free one) and 0.5.0 (for the pro), yasr said goodbye to the microdata to swich to json-ld. What this means? Simple: to add rich snippet to your posts, there is no need anymore to the sentence at the end of the post 🙂
The changelog:
* TWEAKED: All the schema info use now json-ld and not microdata anymore. There is no need anymore to the sentence of the end of post 🙂
* FIXED: itemtype selection
* FIXED: itemtype if not rating
* FIXED: RTL support, thank’s to Arik Numlock
* PRO ONLY: TWEAKED: Enabling / disabling reviews in comments in the single post is made with the save_post action and not through ajax anymore
Hope you like these news, see you soon!
I suggest to disable auto update plugin, hovewer, in the next version, I’ll allow user to choose between microdata and json-ld, so you’ll not have problem 🙂
Thanks Dario.. Looking forward to see new updates.. 🙂
Version 0.9.9 is now avaible. You can choose between microdata and json-ld!
Hi Dario,
I prefer to use microdata instead of JSON-LD at the moment, as google recommended:
https://developers.google.com/structured-data/rich-snippets/reviews
We are in the process of implementing JSON-LD support for this Rich Snippet type. At the current time, we recommend using microdata or RDFa.
How can I stop the plugin being automaticly updated to newest version? I’d like to use 0.9.7 for now.
