How do I output my contact information on my contact page?

Use the [local_seo_info_full] shortcode to print all information. There are also shortcodes that output individual blocks of information: [local_seo_info_contact_only], [local_seo_info_image_only], [local_seo_info_logo_only], [local_seo_info_map_only], [local_seo_info_hours_only], and [local_seo_info_social_media_only].

How can I find out if my SEO data is correct?

Google has a Structured Data Testing Tool that will quickly tell you what data it sees about your business, and report any problems.

Why is my structured data validation test is failing?

Please make sure that all “required” fields are filled out for your location. Google recently made the Schema.org “image” field a required field, and this is usually what is missing.

Why isn’t my embedded Google map not working?

It is recommended to have a Google Places account set up for your location. If you still have trouble, you may generate your own embedded maps URL and save it to your location.

Reviews

custom itemtype is missing

John-Pierre Cornelissen September 3, 2016

Nice plugin with a lot of options. The one important thing missing is a way to specify the schema.org itemtype. It’s hardcoded to <meta itemprop=”type” content=”Work” /> And of you run the page through the Google structured-data tool it gives an error because it doesn’t know the property type for an object of the LocalBusiness type. Also, the address is formated in the American way (city, state zip) but in Europe most countries write (zip city), though it slightly varies per country.
