Hi, I have a problem with the structured data.
Google is telling me my site use a spammy structured markup.
After a major control and assistance with google forum, after disabeling all the possible plugins, the google support ask me to ask to the developers of the theme for any suggestions about this issue.

I have not changed aything at coding level. I just write the articles and add some images.
My site is quite small, just 30 articles.

I know you write code to be ok with Google guidelines. I am only reporting you this issue and asking for suggestions to resolve the problem.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Andrei.
I recently had a discussion with a google technician.
In particular I would like to notice that I did not used any structured data by purpose. Newspaper theme choose everything for me.
If you have just 5 minutes give a look to this discussion, where lots of informations are provided.

If you need, I can provide you ftp and wp-admin credential.
My site have a daily basis of about 2500 users, and provide an actual revenue. So I am taking this problem really seriously.

Thank you really much.

Hello,

I have read the instructions provided by google’s team but none are theme related. All of the suggestions are related to how you set up your site and the content that you use. The theme has no control over that. Please use seo yoast not all in one seo as google suggests as all in one seo is not a tested and approved plugin and we cannot guarantee it will work properly with our theme.
if you want to make a review of certain items, you can use the theme review system that adds the proper markup: https://forum.tagdiv.com/reviews-2/ but reviews can only be used for one post at a time.
If you also use untested plugins please try to remove them as plugin conflicts can also create lots of issues. We do not have such reports of “spammy structured markup” with our theme. This is the first case we encountered so far.

Thank you!
Bogdan B
