FAQ Block – Error in Structured Data
-
Hi there,
I am using Yoast SEO verison 12.6 and WordPress version 5.3
I used the FAQ block in one of the articles.
I am getting an Error while checking with Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool, https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/
publisher @type Thing @id https://example.com/#organization Error: Thing is not a known valid target type for the publisher property.There are three instances of this error.
Could you have a look?

The Publisher and Author are a type of Thing.
They should be a type of Organization and Person respectively.I think that’s the only issue. Could you guide how to fix that? I am getting the following result at this moment.
If required, I can send you email with all details.
publisher @type Thing @id https://example.com/#organization author @type Thing @id https://example.com/#/schema/person/53590b93d826333461851bBy default, Yoast SEO will output author as a person type and publisher as an organization or person (depends on the setting selected) type. If your site outputs them as a thing type, we’d suspect that something has either changed the behavior or the output is not from Yoast at all.
Does the line/section where the error occurs start with
<script type='application/ld+json' class='yoast-schema-graph?Yes: Something (a setting, another plugin, missing information, etc) is different between your site and our test environment.
No: The schema is not output by our plugin or one of our add-ons. A conflict check will help identify what plugin (or theme) adds the schema.
