Fewer incomplete entities. One connected Yoast SEO graph.** Extended Schema Types for SEO adds hundreds of canonical Schema.org types to the native **Yoast SEO > Schema** selectors and supplies focused fields for Google Search features. It enriches Yoast SEO’s existing `@graph` instead of printing a disconnected second JSON-LD block. The editor separates properties into: * **Required by Google** for the selected feature profile; * **Recommended by Google** for stronger entity understanding; * **Additional Schema.org fields** for accurate data beyond Google’s current feature set. Titles, canonical URLs, descriptions, authors, dates, publishers and featured images are reused when WordPress or Yoast SEO can infer them reliably. Inferred values remain dynamic: they are not stored as snapshots, and an editor value is persisted only when the publisher explicitly creates an override. A final server-side safety gate checks the JSON-LD that will actually be emitted, including old posts and imported metadata. #### Highlights * Native Yoast SEO selectors and connected graph integration. * Native Yoast page and Article selector values, labels and translations are preserved; only add-on types are appended. * Canonical CamelCase types such as `NewsArticle`, `WebApplication`, `DiscussionForumPosting` and `ProductGroup`. * Immediate missing-property feedback in the editor. * Visual repeaters for DataCatalog datasets and Dataset downloads. * Conditional validation for offers, reviews, ratings, variants, events, answers, comments, shipping, returns, loyalty tiers, videos and carousels. * Native Yoast ownership preserved for `AboutPage`, `ContactPage`, `CollectionPage`,` SearchResultsPage`, `ProfilePage`, `QAPage` and `BreadcrumbList`; the add-on supplements supported properties without rebuilding native graph pieces. * Author archives remain fully context-driven by Yoast SEO, with an optional per- user `Person` or `Organization` author-entity setting on the native WordPress profile screen. * No account, API key, tracking, remote content transfer or front-end JavaScript. #### Google-aware profiles The plugin includes dedicated handling for: * Article, BlogPosting and NewsArticle, including speakable and paywalled-content properties; * BreadcrumbList, fully delegated to Yoast SEO’s connected breadcrumb node; * Course, Movie, Recipe and Restaurant host carousels; * Course and Dataset Search profiles; * DiscussionForumPosting and SocialMediaPosting; * Education Q&A with Quiz/LearningResource flashcards; * EmployerAggregateRating and ClaimReview; * Event and supported Event subtypes; * image license metadata; * JobPosting and LocalBusiness subtypes; * MathSolver; * Organization, merchant return policy, loyalty program and ShippingService; * Product snippets, merchant listings and ProductGroup variants; * ProfilePage and QAPage; * Recipe, Review, SoftwareApplication, WebApplication, MobileApplication and VideoObject; * explicit SoftwareApplication rating/review models: AggregateRating or Review; * paywalled-content controls for Article/WebPage and supported CreativeWork profiles; * VacationRental, including review/date rules and its limited-access requirements identified in the editor. Google feature availability, eligibility and display are controlled by Google. Correct structured data does not guarantee a rich result, and every value must accurately describe visible page content. Dataset markup is for Google Dataset Search rather than ordinary Google Search results. ClaimReview remains useful for Fact Check Explorer while Google Search support is being phased out. #### DataCatalog and Dataset done properly ``` DataCatalog is not presented as a standalone Google rich-result profile. Use it for a real catalog and add optional datasets through a structured repeater instead of fragile pipe-delimited rows. ``` Each nested Dataset provides separate fields for: * required name and 50–5,000 character description; * URL, alternate names and identifiers; * creator type, name, URL and sameAs; * license, citations, keywords and version; * temporal and spatial coverage; * measurement techniques and variables measured; * sameAs, isBasedOn and free-access status; * repeatable DataDownload records with contentUrl and encodingFormat. Incomplete nested datasets are retained in the editor but are not emitted. Creator and license can inherit from the catalog, and valid records are linked with `includedInDataCatalog`. #### Defensive output The public graph rejects or suppresses incomplete structures such as: * virtual-only Event locations or physical venues without a detailed PostalAddress; * Product merchant listings without image, single Offer, price and currency; * product-level return policies without applicableCountry and returnPolicyCategory; * Organization return policies, shipping conditions or loyalty tiers missing dependent properties; * ProductGroup variants that do not match the selected single-page or multi-page strategy; * reviews without author and rating, or aggregate ratings without a count; * QAPage answers without text or answerCount; * DiscussionForumPosting without author, publication date and visible post content; * MathSolver actions without the `{math_expression_string}` target placeholder; * comments, flashcards, clips, opening hours and downloads with incomplete records. #### Broader Schema.org vocabulary The plugin also exposes valid Schema.org types that do not currently have a dedicated Google Search appearance, including `HowTo`, `FAQPage`, `Service`, `Person`, podcast types, audio types, medical entities, legislation, government services and digital documents. Schema.org support does not imply Google rich-result support. Google labels and validation rules are reserved for documented Google features. #### Restricted and feed-based features Some Google experiences cannot be enabled by ordinary page JSON-LD alone. Book Actions require partner onboarding and a feed. Vacation rentals are limited to eligible partners. Product policies may also be supplied through Merchant Center. The plugin identifies these limitations instead of promising unsupported eligibility. #### Privacy and security Saved values are nonce-protected, capability-checked, unslashed and sanitized. Output is escaped where appropriate and empty values are removed recursively. The plugin performs no tracking, remote API calls, database-table creation or public credit injection. **Independent add-on disclaimer:** this plugin is independently developed by Rede Piabanha.

No. It is an independent add-on developed by Rede Piabanha. ### Does it create a second JSON-LD graph? No. It enriches and connects entities inside Yoast SEO’s existing graph. ### Why are some properties not editable? The plugin does not ask editors to repeat values that WordPress or Yoast SEO can infer reliably. ### Does the plugin replace Yoast SEO’s native page, archive or breadcrumb Schema? No. Native Yoast graph behavior for author archives, taxonomy/blog collections, search results, AboutPage, ContactPage, CollectionPage, SearchResultsPage, ProfilePage, QAPage and BreadcrumbList is preserved. The add-on only supplements supported properties on singular content or adds an explicitly selected extended entity. ### Can an author be represented as an Organization instead of a Person? Yes. Edit the WordPress user profile and choose the author entity type. Person remains the default. Selecting Organization changes the type of Yoast SEO’s existing author entity while preserving its connected graph identifier, so references from articles and profile pages remain connected. ### Does it guarantee rich results? No. Google also evaluates visible content, technical accessibility, feature availability, site quality and other eligibility rules. ### Which versions are supported? Version 1.2.1 requires WordPress 6.5 or later, PHP 7.4 or later and Yoast SEO. ## Recensioni Non ci sono recensioni per questo plugin. ## Contributi e sviluppo “Extended Schema Types for SEO” è un software open source.
