 * Hello,
 * In Google Webmaster Tools i’ve noticed several error with Expound Theme from 
   the Structured Data Tools for “hatom” type.
 * Missing required field “updated”
    Missing required hCard “author”
 * These error concerned ALL of my page and i suspect this is a reason of CTR dropping.
 * Do you know how to fix this problem?

 * Unfortunately topics can’t be closed as “wontfix” but in this case that’s what“
   resolved” actually means 🙂

 * Konstantin,
    Unfortunately, it is a big deal as Google changed it’s algorithm
   again. I’m currently getting the same errors and just wondered if you are willing
   to find a fix?
 * thnx
