Hey Anas

which I noticed that all 25 items have the 1 of the 2 above urls and both are categories
the warning are:
1- No global identifier provided (e.g., gtin, mpn, isbn): 43 items example urls:
https://perfumeandcolour.com/product/cuir-altesse/ (EAN added to all variants)

https://perfumeandcolour.com/product/cuir-mandarin/ (EAN added to all variants)
https://perfumeandcolour.com/product/cuir-caraibes/ (EAN added to all variants)
and all other 8 products which EAN was added too
2- No brand example urls:

https://perfumeandcolour.com/product/cuir-caraibes/
and more
3- Missing field “image”:

Hello,
the following URLS are among 25 other with the same error (either “offer” “review” or aggregate rating should be specified):
https://perfumeandcolour.com/product-category/exclusive-perfumes/
https://perfumeandcolour.com/product-category/samples/
I tested the URLs you shared with Google’s Rich Results testing tool but was unable to replicate the issue. These are product category URLs and as per Google’s guidelines, only single product pages should have the product schema.
However, I checked and these URLs do not have the product schema, which is fine.
Here are the test results:
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result?id=QAyWNgu2tSfYDHqu2NqCuA
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result?id=5oD3DTsDOMCARSZD_ziVeQ
As for the warnings,
1. I was able to replicate this. However, the option to add GTIN/MPN/ISBN is present in the PRO version of Rank Math. Could you confirm how you’ve added the EAN to the products? Are you using any third-party plugins for this?
Test result:
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result/r%2Fproduct?id=Rxx9tsoDTJhJIxzMv_L5sw
2. The Brand is already added to these URLs and the warning is not present. Only the GTIN warning is shown.
Test results:
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result/r%2Fproduct?id=hx4enLZsdBd2qLjEpgZDiA
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result/r%2Fproduct?id=0vCflDEiCsDBBU2VWPAv7g
3, 4. Same as the initial error for reviews and aggregareRating, as the product schema is not present in these URLs, the issue is automatically fixed.
For the fixed issues, please clear your website’s cache and wait for Google to crawl the website again and see if the warning/error is removed from Google Search Console.
Hope this helps.
Thank you.
Hi Prabhat
Thanks a lot for the update, great news.
regarding the: “Could you confirm how you’ve added the EAN to the products?”
Yes it was added to the 8 products i am currently advertising through google as and their variants and are already showing on google feed.
however they are not showing on search console!
I used the following plugin to add them:
EAN for WooCommerce
Hello,
In this case, please add the filter given below to your site to add the EAN to your Schema:
/**
* Filter to change the schema data.
* Replace $schema_type with schema name like article, review, etc.
* @param array $entity Snippet Data
* @return array
*/
add_filter( "rank_math/snippet/rich_snippet_product_entity", function( $entity ) {
global $post;
$entity['ean'] = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_alg_ean');
return $entity;
});
Here is a guide on how to add the filter to your site: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
