 * I installed the latest version of the Google Author Link plugin and ran the Structured
   Data Testing Tool. It says that authorship IS working for this webpage but gives
   the following errors:
 * Error: Missing required field “updated”.
    Error: Missing required hCard “author”.
 * I have researched and found that others have this same error – even using different
   plugins but I can’t find a solution after hours of searching.
 * One person posted that I simply had to log out of my Word Press site, and run
   the tests again. That didn’t work.
 * I would be very grateful if anyone could provide some assistance. Thank-you in
   advance!
