Google Search Console and products

    Hi there.

    I have a WooCommerce with Yoast SEO running Porto Theme. In this store i now have about 400 products and plan on going above 2000 in the near future. But i have a problem with search console note indexing my single products.

    On my Search Console it says i have zero valid products, along with a few warnings that i think are related to the lack of comments and user input. Im out on the dark in here because i think everyting Google says i dont have or havent done i have and did. For exemple, it says i have 20 or so products with no “brand” on it, but setting up the brands is the first thing i do.

    On some other products it says “agregatedreviews” is missing and on one of those i have put a review myself just to test, a few days ago, but it keeps saying it is missing.

    Ive researched this issue here and on another foruns and found a possible bug on WooCommerce that i dont know if it is my case. Someone sayd that i should do something about my product scheme and to be honest im just scared of changing stuff on my PHP files, so thats why i am here.

    Sorry for the long post but i really dont know how to explain all this in a shorter way. Thank you guys.

    Hi @gabrielopes3d!

    Do the items in question have actual reviews? It will need to have reviews for review and aggregateRating to be generated. If, however, these warnings are coming up for products with valid reviews, then that is a bug we have already resolved in https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/pull/24278 for v3.9.0 release. If that is the version you are on, you shouldn’t be seeing it any longer.

    Alternatively, if you’d like to remove the product schema markup from your product and shop category pages, then there’s some code here. You can add that code to your child theme’s functions.php file or via a plugin that allows custom functions to be added, such as the Code Snippets plugin. Please don’t add custom code directly to your parent theme’s functions.php file as this will be wiped entirely when you update.

    You can read more about adding custom code to your site the correct way here:

    Cheers!

    Hi @rynald0s, thanks for your answer. I will read all the links youve sent, thank you again.
    But, what about the zero valid products? This can only be solved with custom codes? I mean, everything i use is up to date. This should not be a problem, right?

    Hi @gabrielopes3d. Did you manage to resolve this issue?

    Google requirements and recommendations for schema markup change regularly as Google deems appropriate. If you are still getting notices and errors related to the Search Console, the best place to look for and report these issues is on the GitHub repository for WooCommerce directly: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues

    You can search to see if there are any other reports, and if not, create one.
