 * Hi! Has anyone received errors for Article schema from Search Console? “Error
   in required structured data element” – When I read the guidelines and looked 
   at tools it specifically pointed to Author,Image,Publisher.
 * If you go to the URL provided and use a schema tool -> go to author and you’ll
   see the error
 * Thank you in advance 🙂
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ferror-in-required-structured-data-element-article-schema%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@ruansmit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ruansmit/)
 * If you’ve [configured the settings in the plugin](https://yoast.com/help/implementing-schema-with-yoast-seo/),
   it should output all of the necessary schema data for all of your posts and pages.
 * We’re checking on that article you’ve mentioned and we’ve ran it through both
   [Google’s RRT](https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result?id=-Km3QlR5XNIPlUUM56abtg)
   and the [schema.org validator](https://validator.schema.org/?hl=en-US#url=https%3A%2F%2Fpixelsmithstudios.com%2Ftech-reviews%2Fbest-digital-notepads%2F)
   and there don’t seem to be any errors or warnings generating for the article 
   output. Could you check if you’re still encountering this issue?

 * I’ve been noticing the same issue with several of my pages.
 * After troubleshooting to some degree including removing all other schema associated
   plugins and data, it would seem this is isolated to pages with videos.
 * What I am wondering is if the Yoast Video Schema is not matching the LazyLoad
   feature of WPRocket and as such Google is viewing a difference in schema versus
   page.
 * That being said I’ve tried disabling LazyLoad through WPRocket and tried using
   Yoast’s built in feature for this but to no avail.
 * It would seem there is some sort of error somewhere, although possibly with Google
   as I’m not getting any errors in the rich data results or schema validator; only
   in search console.
