 * Hi,
 * With the latest update, the star rating feature generates errors in Google Webmaster
   Tools. Google tells me:
 * > New Products issues detected for site [https://domain.com](https://domain.com)
   > Missing field “offers”
   > Missing field “description”
   > Missing field “sku”
   > No global identifier provided (e.g., gtin, mpn, isbn)
   > Missing field “review”
 * Probably it’s from this:
 * `<div id="wpd-post-rating" class="wpd-not-rated"><div itemscope="" itemtype="
   http://schema.org/Product"`
 * Product schema is incorrect in this instance.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@mgsolidus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgsolidus/),
    Google has 
   removed the “Article” type of rating. So we have to remove the Aggregate Rating
   schema in upcoming 7.0.2 version.
 * Currently, we’re using the “Product” type, because there is no other type that
   could be closer to articles. You can see all available Aggregate Rating schema
   types here: [https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2019/09/making-review-rich-results-more-helpful.html](https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2019/09/making-review-rich-results-more-helpful.html)
 * According to the information above, we recommend to disable Aggregate Rating 
   schema in Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Settings > Rating & Stars Tab. This will be 
   fully removed in upcoming version. So there is no way to use Aggregate Rating
   schema for simple articles and posts. It’s not allowed by Google.
