Custom Schema – so close!

    With AMPforWP and your structured data plugin, there is a button at the bottom of a post or page labeled “Add Custom Schema”. Great!

    It only works with JSON, not JSON-LD. Why?

    You were so close to solving a major issue many of us have with structured data, but the implementation is a complete miss.

    Can you update the plugin to work with JSON-LD instead of JSON?

    Thank you,
    Jim

    In this “Add Custom Schema” which code you have to be added? Can you please share that code?

    JSON-LD code that is used for structured data. Create any code you want as an example, use the generator: https://technicalseo.com/tools/schema-markup-generator/

    If you put that in your custom JSON box, it does not work, it does not end up on the amp page, it is removed. If I try to convert json-ld to json, it is not a direct translation. The structured data shows up on the amp page but with a large amount of errors.

    If you can allow json-ld instead of or in addition to json, that would be perfect!

    Thank you,

    Can you please tell me which code are you trying to add in “Add Custom Schema”? So that I can test and help you to solve that issue.

    I did additional testing. It seems if you input code that begins with <script type=”application/ld+json”> and ends with </script>, AMPforWP removes the code.

    If you input the exact same code, but remove the <script type=”application/ld+json”> and </script>, the code is added to the AMP page as structured data.

    So, the plugin does work with json-ld. That mystery is solved.

    Next, I tried to get more than one set of scripts to work. Many attempts with variations of trying to string together more than one schema failed.

    Is there a way to do this?

    Thank you,
    Jim

    Hi,
    This issue can be fixed in our latest updates. You can insert JSON-ld data with the script or without script tag.
