Can you please confirm what third-party plugin you used in the design of the FAQ page? * We look forward to hearing from you. * Thread Starter [trapbarn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trapbarn/) * (@trapbarn) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/main-entity/#post-15139729) * Hi, Your guess is correct. I created a regular page with q and As and then designated it as a FAQ age in Yoast. I didnt realise i had to use a plugin. Can I do this in Yoast without using a third party? * Plugin Support [Maybellyne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maybellyne/) * (@maybellyne) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/main-entity/#post-15139795) * Thanks for the feedback. * To resolve the error, you need to use the Yoast FAQ block for the design of Q and As since you have set the page in the schema settings as an FAQ page.

And yes, we have something for your How-to pages.

However, you can test the how-to schema output using the [Google Rich Result Testing Tool](https://search.google.com/test/rich-results).

Much appreciated. * Thread Starter [trapbarn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trapbarn/) * (@trapbarn) * [4 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/main-entity/#post-15176787) * I was too quick to hand out the plaudits. Whilst your FAQ feature tested OK in code validation test, it failed the Google Search Console test for an FAQ page. * It returned the same error “**“main-entity” is missing.**” * Looks like a bit more development is required. - This reply was modified 4 years, 4 months ago by [trapbarn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trapbarn/).
