Google webstories breadcrumb issue

(@abemedpibe)

OK, thanks. I have filled out the form

(@mxbclang)

Thank you @abemedpibe! I see that you’re using the Yoast SEO plugin. Can you confirm that you have the Breadcrumbs feature turned on? You can see this in SEO > Search Appearance > Breadcrumbs.

Ehm, no it doesn’t seem to have been activated

(@mxbclang)

@abemedpibe Thanks for checking!

One other favor to ask: Can you go to SEO > Tools > Export settings and copy and paste what you see in the Yoast SEO settings box here? This will allow me to use your settings to try to replicate the issue.

Should I just activate the breadcrumb feature in Yoast? Will that fix the issue?

(@mxbclang)

Hi @abemedpibe We’re still investigating this issue, but it appears that it may not be Yoast-related, so turning breadcrumbs on/off would not fix the error message that you’re seeing.

I’ll update here as soon as I have next steps for you. Thanks for your patience!

Thread Starter

(@abemedpibe)

Ok, thank you for your help

(@mxbclang)

@abemedpibe I just tested your story again and it looks like it’s no longer showing errors: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.livinginashoebox.com%2Fweb-stories%2Fmercedes-sprinter-converted-into-campervan%2F. Have you changed something recently?

Thread Starter

(@abemedpibe)

Thats’ weird. I have deactivated Yoast because I’m trying out a new SEO plugin. That’s the only change, I think

(@mxbclang)

@abemedpibe Well the good news is that you’re confirming my theory that Yoast is the cause of the problem. 🙂 I’ll report back as I learn more.

Not sure if I should join this support thread for the same issue (Yoast installed and breadcrumbs turned on) or if I should create my own support ticket?

Search console reports:

Either ‘name’ or ‘item.name’ should be specified

Hope I’m doing the right thing!
