 * Google says my site is Missing: Author and Missing: Updated. I am trying to correct
   this. Which frontier file should I correct these in and what exact line should
   I change in the coding? It says online to change the single.php file, however
   I don’t see that file at all. Then I tried changing the loop-single.php file,
   however that hasn’t worked either. I have seen examples online but not sure which
   Frontier file and then also the line examples of code the provide are completely
   different from what I find. Please help!

 * Go to **Frontier Options**. On both **Blog View** and **Single View** tab, check
   the items _Byline Author_ and _Date Updated_.

 * I have done this before and it did not resolve the issue. Do these two items 
   affect Google page position??

 * If you’re using Google Webmasters Tool to check the status then you should know
   that Google doesn’t check each page instantly. It takes time for Google to crawl
   each page again to check its markup.
 * However, you could use Google’s rich snippet testing tool to check if the markup
   is indeed correct. [http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets](http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets)
 * Also, make sure that you refresh your page cache with every change if you have
   a caching plugin installed. Otherwise, changes won’t be reflected.

 * Not sure. You could ask on an SEO forum or better yet, on Google Forums.
