Hi,

1/ Yeah, we will add more that fields in the future update. Currently, It's not required fields and it doesn't affect to your recipe - your recipe still validated normal.

As you can see this blog use our theme Soledad and has been validated fine here ( https://ducankitchen.com/ )

2/ For all warning you showed on the screenshot:

a) About keywords, category, cuisine & video - check on point 1/

b) About recipe ingredients, I've said about this with you on my previous comment.

c) For rating - please make sure you enable ratings via Customize > Recipe Options.

d) Cooktime & prep time - please validate your recipe here and you can see it's missing or not. If it's missing - let's check again your recipe, make sure you filled for all the fileds for cooktime & prep time. The theme supports this feature already.

3/ Thank you for your suggest. We will consider to add more this feature in the future updates.

Best Regards,

PenciDesign

Thank you for returning to me.

I have ran the recipe in google's testing tool, and saw that 4 fields are missing:

Also I saw that the instructions served as a single filed, instead of separated steps, like my current plugin is doing.

\

Questions:

\

Do you guys plan on adding these fields (keyword, category, cuisine & video)?
All of my recipes have cuisine and category defined and some have videos, that I think would be great to integrate in the structured data.
Attached please find search console's recipes status report of my current site. Google have wrote:

What is your stand regarding this warnings? I know that a warnings aren't errors, but these fileds are very easy to implement & seems like a task that can benefit a lot your users.
Recipe instructions.
I see that you guys have embedded them as a single step.
Do you guys plan on allowing them to be embedded as separated steps? In the documentation on Google Developers Site, this is what they wrote:

Exist a chance you guys will implement them as steps in the future, or can I do something already now in th current plugin config?

Thank you!

Hi,

Thank you for purchased Soledad.

To make the recipe ingredients can validated, you need go to Customize > Recipe Options > and un-check on "Make Ingredients is Visual Editor on Edit Recipe Screen" because the editor from wordpress can't auto render itemprop="ingredients" to ingredients of your recipe.

If you want to create headings for recipe ingredients, you can use this format like this for ingredients:

==This is heading 1:

This is ingredient 1

This is ingredient 2

This is ingredient 3

==This is heading 2:

\

This is another ingredient 1

\

This is another ingredient 2

\

This is another ingredient 3

Hi there. I'm converting an existing blog to adopt Soleded theme & I got some issues with implementation of the recipes.

\

My current recipe plugin supports and generates rich snippets as well. Pasting the recipes into their columns generated a different styke than the one appear in your demos, and also did not generated the Scheme relevant classnames, in the containers and items of the ingredients and instructions.

\

Links for the tests I ran:

\

Test one: http://wftest.homus.com.br/rugelach/
As you can see, ingredients did not get the itemprop="ingredients" , as well as Instructions.
Besides that, the style is far away from the design presented in the theme in all the demos.
So I tested a clean and flat data recipe, with some line, to check if it was a problem with me pasting already existing text, and got the same results - http://wftest.homus.com.br/omelete-vegano/
I have also confirmed my steps with your video tutorial and saw that It was exactly what I was doing.

\

Can you guys give me some tips or even an already made tutorial? I'm an experienced client side developer, if thats got to do with anything :)

\

Thank you.
