Recipe Rich Snippet Ingredient text not respecting hard returns

#42749
  • The Recipe Rich Snippet ingredient field is not respecting hard returns. The field is labelled “one ingredient per line” but when you add one ingredient per line (copy paste or just type it out) the ingredients field automatically strips the hard returns and clumps the ingredients in as one big line. See the sensitive data for more information on the link you can throw into the rich snippet checker tool to test.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    This is expected behavior when using the “Single Field” instruction type in Rank Math. For best results it is recommended to use HowToStep or HowToSection block when providing instructions.

    Here is an extract from the usage Guidelines from Google:

    Google treats all steps as being in a single section. Repeated property values are concatenated into a single block of text. Google then attempts to automatically split the single block of text into individual steps. Google tries to find and remove any section names, step numbers, keywords, and anything else that can incorrectly appear in recipe step text. For best results, we recommend you unambiguously specify steps with HowToStep.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Not steps… ingredients.

    Thank you so much, it has been a struggle to deal with and I originally thought it was a conflict with other plugins, etc. I’m hoping good news come from checking!
