Hi,

Google’s structured data testing tool reports an error in the date of the topic’s posts.

The message is this:

datePublished

28 Sep 2020 (The 28 Sep 2020 value could not be understood as a date / time. Learn more about date / time formats.)

How can I solve the problem?

I have already configured several different date formats in the WordPress dashboard, but it did not solve the problem.

Thanks a lot for the help!

Hey,
Where are you seeing this message? What version of Virtue theme are you using? If you’re up to date on the theme, plugins, and of WordPress then I suggest deactivating your plugins to test if any are conflicting.
Let me know if there’s no change!

Best,
Hannah

Hi,

The message is given by Google’s structured data testing tool.

You can see it below:

https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.blogdoheroi.com.br%2F

When entering, click on BlogPosting, the amount of errors will appear in red, just click on each one.

Ah, there is no conflict with any plugin. According to Google, the error is due to the date format that is not in the ISO standard.

This is the line of code for the error:

<div class=”postmeta updated color_gray”>
<div class=”postdate bg-lightgray headerfont” itemprop=”datePublished”>
<span class=”postday”><?php echo get_the_date(‘j’); ?></span>
<?php echo get_the_date(‘M Y’);?>
</div>
</div>

Best regards!

Hey,
I’ve put this to be included in the next free theme version.

If you need to fix right now open the templates/post-date.php file and replace the contents with this:
```
<div class="postmeta updated color_gray">
		<div class="postdate bg-lightgray headerfont">
			<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="<?php echo esc_attr( get_the_modified_date( 'c' ) ); ?>">
			<span class="postday"><?php echo get_the_date( 'j' ); ?></span>
			<?php echo esc_html( get_the_date( 'M Y' ) ); ?>
		</div>
	</div>
```

Ben,

It worked, the error I reported was resolved, but now the same error is in the carousel of related posts, in the similarblog-carousel.php file.

See the error:

https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.blogdoheroi.com.br%2Ffamosas-em-versoes-originais-de-nascimento%2F

Can you help me with this other mistake?

Thank you very much, developer!
