 * Hi there,
    I’m having issues with missing required hCard “author” or similar 
   hEntry / microformat error in Google’s structured data testing tool… only on 
   my single product page on my woocommerce site. No other pages have this issue.
   I’ve seen the Yoast article on how to fix, however the lines of code that they
   suggest to edit are not in the Primer/Stout theme single.php files. If someone
   can assist with this it would be most appreciated as I’m just starting an ecommerce
   store and SEO is very important.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgoogle-search-appearance-structured-data-error%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@southernnotill](https://wordpress.org/support/users/southernnotill/)
 * Let me take a look and see what I might be able to find here. I haven’t encountered
   this issue nor has it been previously reported.

 * Hi [@southernnotill](https://wordpress.org/support/users/southernnotill/),
 * I setup a test instance with the WooCommerce dummy data (
    [https://d8q.faa.godaddywp.com/product/wordpress-pennant/](https://d8q.faa.godaddywp.com/product/wordpress-pennant/))
   but I’m not seeing any errors or warnings coming from the Google Structured Data
   Test Tool ([https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool#url=https%3A%2F%2Fd8q.faa.godaddywp.com%2Fproduct%2Fwordpress-pennant%2F](https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool#url=https%3A%2F%2Fd8q.faa.godaddywp.com%2Fproduct%2Fwordpress-pennant%2F)).
 * I also have Yoast SEO installed, but it may be configured differently than what
   you have – which might explain why you are seeing a warning and I’m not.

 * Awesome, thanks. Yeah I cant seem to get rid of the error. Its a weird one and
   I hope Im not getting penalised by Google for it.

 * Can you share a link to a test where you’re seeing the error? I ran your site
   through the structured data testing tool but don’t see the error in your original
   post.
