Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing. The CollectionPage Schema is typically used on pages that compile other posts and pages, such as category and tag pages. It can also be added to your homepage if it displays your latest posts instead of a static page.
This means that the CollectionPage Schema is not specifically tied to WooCommerce or news websites; rather, it can be utilized on any website that has a structure involving categories or tags.
If you have further questions or need more specific information, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further!

Hello,
Thank you for contacting support.
Our plugin uses that type of schema on archive pages. It uses it on all archive pages, whether they are for blog posts or WooCommerce products.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
I have a news website. You are an expert, which schema would you recommend me to use (collection page schema and itemlist)
Hello,
For a news website, we would recommend using the ItemList schema for your collection or archive pages. The ItemList schema helps search engines understand the list of articles or news items on a page, which can enhance the way your content is displayed in search results. However, this schema type is only available with the Premium plugin. See this article for more details: https://rankmath.com/kb/itemlist-schema/
The CollectionPage schema is also beneficial and can be used for grouping articles by categories or topics, giving search engines more context about the type of content on those pages.
Both schemas have their merits, but the ItemList schema is generally more suitable for news websites as it directly indicates a list of items, such as news articles, to search engines.
Hope that helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
