 * Hi [@mertozsoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mertozsoy/)
 * The link to the image doesn’t seem to be loading as expected. Could you possibly
   upload a screenshot to imgur.com or snipboard.io and send us a link to the image
   so we can check on this further?
 * Please also do provide us with an example URL where you are getting this ‘mainentity’
   field is missing error. We do know this happens when you set a page as a `FAQPage`
   in the Yoast SEO schema settings but don’t use the Yoast FAQ block, as it would
   lack the proper and valid markup.

 * Hi [@mertozsoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mertozsoy/)
 * Thanks for providing that information.
 * It looks like for this URL [https://teknikmi.com/lenovo-p2-ekran-degisimi-orijnal-lcd-ekran/](https://teknikmi.com/lenovo-p2-ekran-degisimi-orijnal-lcd-ekran/),
   you’ve set it as a FAQPage, but are indeed not using the Yoast FAQ block (which
   is needed to add the appropriate markup).
 * In order to resolve this, you can either set the schema setting back to ‘WebPage’
   or add the Yoast FAQ block – [https://yoast.com/features/structured-data-blocks/](https://yoast.com/features/structured-data-blocks/)
 * If you add the Yoast FAQ block, we would expect that it would add the correct
   and missing ‘mainEntity’ markup, and you would then be able to validate the fix
   in Google Search Console after.
