For a developer like me it is impossible to achieve full compatibility with all plugins and themes in the WordPress ecosystem. In spite of all the care taken, it is simply the case that some plugins or even the theme will output a strange error. On this page you can find out how to locate these errors using WP_DEBUG.

Let’s say you have an issue on WooCommerce category pages. It’s a weird behavior that occurs but you know it only happens when SNIP is activated. You can do the following to get to the error log:

1. Follow the guide here on how to enable WP_DEBUG.
2. Also make sure you activate WP_DEBUG_LOG.
3. Once this is done, navigate to the page where the problem occurs (in our case this would be a WooCommerce category page).
4. If you’re already on this page, reload it.
5. Download the file that you can now find in the wp-content folder using FTP. The file is called debug.log.
6. Send the file (or the content of the file) to your support staff.

If you don’t get a debug.log file, the issue maybe not related to SNIP but to another plugin or theme, too.

Dirk, one of our customers, reported an issue together with SNIP and the BulletProof Security Pro (BPS) plugin.

As he reported on their forums, BPS blocks a request to a REST API endpoint that is there for deleting snippets on a singular page/post.

What can you do? Follow the instruction from this post.

If you have custom post types or post types that have been added by third-party plugins and want to add singular Structured Data snippets to them, please follow the instructions below:

A customer asked how he can use stamped.io review ratings for an AggregateRating for his WooCommerce products. Here is how it works:

---

As far as I know you need to use stamped.io’s WordPress Plugin. It fetches all the ratings from their API and buffers it into the WordPress post meta database table. SNIP can access this data.

First of all you need to follow the example on how to work with custom fields. The configuration of the AggregateRating schema is a little different.

You can use the following values:

• ratingValue: Post meta field “stamped_io_product_reviews_new->rating”
• bestRating: Direct Text Input “5”
• reviewCount: Post meta field “stamped_io_product_reviews_new->count”
• worstRating: Direct Text Input “1”

That’s it! Have fun! 😉

If a user reports a conflict with another plugin and/or theme, it’s collected here.

A customer asked if he can use WP-PostRatings Plugin with the Rich Snippets Plugin for WordPress. The answer is yes. Just follow the instructions found here: Does the plugin support custom fields?

You need the following fields:

• ratings_everage and
• ratings_users

You can also take a look at the screenshot below.

That’s it! 😉

Yes, with the beginning of version 2.2.0 you can use the following three internal values (if Yoast SEO plugin is installed):

• SEO title
• SEO meta description
• and the Primary Category

Yes, the plugin is now compatible with version 5.3.x.

This may also be interesting for you:

• Is SNIP compatible with my theme?
• Is SNIP compatible with my Page Builder?

Some of you asked if the plugin is compatible to page builders like Beaver Builder, Elementor or Divi Builder. Except of the Divi Builder and the Avada-Builder I’ve not tested the other ones. However the plugin should be compatible as it does not add anything to the builders itself. The Rich Snippets will appear on the frontend as a JavaScript, not visible to the end user but readable to search engines.
