2 items detected: Some are invalid breadcrum

#893952
  • This error popped up in GSC. I have enabled the Rankmath breadcrumb option, which is working fine, but the error is still there.
    Upon digging deep, I found that my WordPress theme is old and supports data-vocabulary.org instead of schema.org.

    How do I remove this error? (Change theme which is compatible with Yeost?)

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the breadcrumb schema in Google Search Console. The error regarding data-vocabulary.org being deprecated indicates that your theme is using an outdated schema format. To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:

    1. Update Your Theme: If possible, consider updating your WordPress theme to a more modern one that supports schema.org instead of data-vocabulary.org. This is crucial as many older themes may not be compatible with current SEO standards.

    2. Disable Old Breadcrumbs: If your theme has its own breadcrumb functionality that uses data-vocabulary.org, you may need to disable it. You can do this by checking your theme settings or by adding custom code to your theme’s functions.php file to remove the old breadcrumbs.

    3. Use Rank Math Breadcrumbs: Since you have already enabled Rank Math’s breadcrumb feature, ensure that it is properly configured. You can refer to our documentation on how to enable breadcrumbs for more details.

    4. Clear Cache: After making these changes, clear your website cache and check Google Search Console again to see if the error persists.

    If you still encounter issues after trying these steps, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math support.

    Rank Math is outputting the correct schema for your website, and Google is not detecting any error for it. The 2 other breadcrumbs showing on that page are not coming from Rank Math, so we have no way of controlling it. Schemas that are added by Rank Math are added using the rank-math-schema class.

    Switching to Yoast would not rectify this, you would need to reach out to the theme developers and ask them how to disable their schema.

    We hope this helps you resolve the issue. Don’t hesitate to contact us again with any other questions or concerns regarding Rank Math. We are always happy to help.

    Thank you for choosing Rank Math!

    Thank You
