Title: jDownloads Need to add Product Schema Markup on downloads?
Post by: ibrahim on 18.09.2022 01:42:52
Hello! Why there is no Schema Markup. After searching I figured to add a custom module on the site with JSON details from https://technicalseo.com/tools/schema-markup-generator/

But didn't know what to insert on the values as name, image? Need to make it auto recognise the download item.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org/",
  "@type": "Product",
  "name": "",
  "image": "",
  "offers": {
    "@type": "AggregateOffer",
    "url": "",
    "priceCurrency": "",
    "lowPrice": ""
  },
  "review": {
    "@type": "Review",
    "reviewBody": "",
    "author": {"@type": "Person", "name": ""}
  }
}
</script>

Here to test: https://validator.schema.org/


Wish anyone know the best solution?

Hi
There is an information schema - it belongs to the database.
If your intent is writing a module then you do not need to know about the the information schema itself


It would help if you advised what you want the module to do.  The modules in jDownloads access the existing tables (eg the categories table) directly using database commands

Hi ColinM! thanks for the answer.
What I mean is jDownloads on items there is no Schema-Markup to let google index as product (digital item) also the internal rating is not been readed, anyway I changed rating on my site to Jlex Review see attached screenshots to check the difference between an item from your demo site and to compare with my site.

Hi
What you are asking is beyond jDownloads scope.  Jlex Review is a paid extension and does the job very well. But they do not handle the things that jD does
In English we use colloquial phrases like " Horses for Courses" or "each to his Own" - there is no univerasal software that does everything!!!!
Best wishes
