Are you using Yoast SEO or similar to embed the author data into the HEAD area of each post? Check to see that is actually there by doing “view source.” Just make sure you have valid author meta tag in the body for now. I think the theme puts it in there regardless, but double check.
For microformats, know that Google’s issue on the above is a little behind; even that link doesn’t work đ
The nextgen methodology is microformat2 where the hcard data will be part of the class structure, vs separate span tags and such.
from above, old format
With classic microformats – WHAT GOOGLE’S OLD THING LOOKING FOR:
<span class="vcard"><a href="http://waterpigs.co.uk">Barnaby Walters</a></span>
NEW SCHEMA:
a class="h-card" href="http://waterpigs.co.uk">Barnaby Walters /a
In other words, presumably Radu and co will be looking at the new schema for Newspaper 5.0, and that will represent the “new think” on microformats.
All of that may not be the answer to your specific query, but anecdotal and informational for anybody searching this topic.
