From time to time customers ask me if SNIP has a negative impact on page load time. Here is the answer to that:
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:
Some of you already got an email from me saying that SNIP is currently on SALE. Here is why:

Ivan sent a message over Twitter and asked how to get breadcrumbs to work with tags. As you may know from the How to use Loops to iterate over items tutorial, it’s pretty simple with categories because they’re hierarchical. That’s not the case with tags.

Here is an example of a Global Snippet that allows you to show lists of products on product taxonomies (product categories and product tag) pages:
If you purchased SNIP on CodeCanyon, you subscribed to a 6-month (or optionally a 12-month) support plan, which automatically expires after this time. After that, you will need to renew your support in order to receive personalized support. Here’s how you can do that:

Last week I attended WordCamp Europe in Berlin. WordCamps are conferences that focus on everything WordPress-related. It’s not only for developers, by the way. You should go to one that is close to your home town as well!
Bill asked me today how it’s possible to use a certain post thumbnail size in SNIP. Unfortunately that is not possible at the moment directly within SNIP. However there is a workaround that extends its functionality. And here is how it works:

Another cool update has just been pushed out. Here is what has changed during the last two versions for SNIP, the Structured Data Plugin for WordPress:
