Dear Support,

I have discovered to have plenty of hentry missing:updated errors in google webmaster. After some search on internet I have discovered that bug should be fixed by modifying some files of the theme.

Could you please help me to resolve this issue in order to not be penalized by google in terms of SEO?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I’ve sent theme-functions.php file to your registration email. Please try to replace the file in legenda/framework/ folder.

Dear Rose,

Now that we have discovered that the provided theme-functions.php had a bug and lucky we solved the issue that it triggered, is there a possibility to fix the hentry error raised by google with a working file?

Please let me know how to proceed.

Best regards.

Hello, we have had the same problem for over a year now.
Our Google Webmaster Tools has been showing a large number of Hentry Missing:updated errors.

Could you please provide us a plan, how to fix it?
At some point it has slowed down our site to receive zero traffic.

Many thanks
M.

Dear Friends

I checked Google webmaster tools, to find, that since applzing the changes, the number of errors dropped, however, it than grew again, and now it is not only “Missing: updated”, but now it is also
“missing: entry title”
“missing: author”
Structured Data > hentry (markup: microformats.org)
Status: 3/19/18

There are 46 erros of these kinds

Could you please provide a solution?
Thank you
be well

Hello @Malvine

Have you checked if this issue appears with our theme only or with a default theme too?

Hello Rose

I checked it previously, than when Fabio Vito asked the question, and the answer was provided, it worked on my site. the number of problems dropped, from over 130 to 46. But when the solution was added to the code, new type of hentry problems appeared, just as I described in the message above.
When you look at the screenshot I provided in the previous email, you will see, that most of the errors relates to category pages. But unfortunatelly not only.
Hentry errors relate to the theme code.

Hello

I have read them… just as several other articles, for example by SEO Yoast.
In the article suggested by you, the authors say:

“As I mentioned, having issues related to hentry is not a big issue for your SEO rankings, so you can disable hentry in your WordPress website and Google will stop showing those errors for you, that is what I call “Dirty Fix“. But if you want to really fix them you will need to do few edits in your theme as hentry errors are actually coming from themes.”

Just as SEO Yoast, here as well, it is said, that the problem is in the theme. The errors appear, because of the theme code.
