 * Hi, this i guess silly question, but i want to have some proper answer because
   i am quite bad at all this stuff.
    So google console search says there is an 
   error: missing an author. I ask WP support about it and they told me the the 
   theme i am using doesn’t have microformats. So i googled it a bit and it seem
   like a sela is using microformats. So my question are they used or not?

 * Hi there,
 * Microformats are integrated into Sela but you may see some errors in Google’s
   Search Console due to the differences between Microformats v1 vs. v2.
 * If you use Google’s newer tool here, then you shouldn’t see any errors:

 * Can you take a look and let me know if you see any errors in that newer tool?
 * Thanks!
