NavXT Still Fails Google Structured Data Testing Tool

To answer the first question, the next version of Breadcrumb NavXT (5.3.0) will switch from the old RDFa breadcrumbs to Schema.org BreadcrumbLists, which pass the Google tool (will want to do a settings reset to get the new defaults for your breadcrumb templates). Note that this will pass without the last item being linked. If you wish, you can test the development version (SVN Trunk or GitHub master branch). I plan on releasing 5.3.0 within the next two weeks.

As for the second question, thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten about it, that sounds like a bug (it should already work for any post type) and I’ll look into it this week.

Hey John and thanks for the quick reply back man.

When you say Title Trixx with work with “any” post type are you implying that it does indeed already work with WordPress (Pages)?

Last we had spoken in April or May, I had asked if the plugin supported wordpress pages and you had told me that it did not currently but you would be releasing a version in June 2015 that would Support the use on WordPress PAGES.

Thank you John.

In reference to the latest testing release>>

I have installed that but the structured data testing tool does not detect breadcrumbs at all and wouldn’t this need to be changed below to reflect schema markup in lieu of RFD.DATA??

<div id=”breadcrumbs” xmlns:v=”https://rdf.data-vocabulary.org/#”&gt;

Yes, you need to change the wrapping div a little. You need it to look something like this:

<div typeof="BreadcrumbList" vocab="https://schema.org/">

For additional reference, please see this article: https://mtekk.us/archives/guides/how-to-implement-schema-org-breadcrumblist-with-breadcrumb-navxt/

In regards to Breadcrumb NavXT Title Trixx and pages, the current version of Breadcrumb NavXT Title Trixx should work with Pages. I just checked this on my testbed with Breadcrumb NavXT Title Trixx 1.0.2. It will show a “Alternate Title” metabox below the post/page content editor. Note that you may have to enable it in the “Screen Options” for pages.

Thank you very much John. I have used the XML file that you have provided and imported into NavXT and it is working wonderfully and it does indeed pass the Google Structured Data Testing tool even without the last crumb linked.

Beyond the XML Import, I had to change the selector to a class instead of the ID#. Thank you for your assistance John and I will go ahead and buy the Title Trixx seeing how it works on Pages now which is what mu site is primarily built with seeing how I run a local computer repair business

Thank you John.
