Schema markup issue

  • Hi!

    There’s an issue with the schema markup generated. No matter what, the field Location Reviewed / Product Reviewed / Item Reviewed is classified as Organization when this is incorrect in most cases…

    "itemReviewed": {
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Costa Rica"
}

    The problem is Google can penalize the page because this, they have already done in cases where services where tagged as Product in the markup…

    It will be nice if you can let to choose (or write) in the testimonial what specific type is the item of the review as is the only way to do it correctly. Another option is take the itemReviewed attribute off to avoid problems.

    Some generic and common types could be :

    Event
    Organization
    Person
    Place
    Product

    But could also be:

    Book
    Movie
    Restaurant
    … and dozens more (https://schema.org/docs/full.html)

    Then a textbox maybe is the good way to go but a select of the common types will be the easiest for most users…

    Thanks for your plugin!
