Dear Support Team,
I am experiencing an issue with the structured data on my website using the Newspaper theme.
Currently, in the JSON-LD generated on my news pages, the organization is marked as:
“@type”: [“NewsMediaOrganization”,”Organization”]
However, when I test the pages using Google’s Rich Results Test, only NewsArticle and Article are detected, and the NewsMediaOrganization type does not appear.
I am using the Rank Math SEO Pro plugin, and I suspect there may be a conflict or an issue with how the theme and plugin handle the schema for news media organizations.
Could you please advise on how to correctly implement or fix the NewsMediaOrganization schema so that it is properly recognized by Google, without affecting other structured data on the pages?
Thank you very much for your assistance.
Best regards,
Ruslan
Hi,
Google may not recognize your NewsMediaOrganization schema because of one or more of these reasons:
1. Using @type as an array:
“@type”: [“NewsMediaOrganization”, “Organization”]
to
“@type”: “NewsMediaOrganization”
2. Missing required fields. Make sure the schema includes:
{
“@type”: “NewsMediaOrganization”,
“name”: “Your Site Name”,
“url”: “https://your-site.com”,
“logo”: {
“@type”: “ImageObject”,
“url”: “https://your-site.com/logo.png”
}
}
Test your schema using:
Google Rich Results TestSchema Markup Validator
I hope this will help you!
