 * If you just want amp pages generated to look at, it works. But if you test the
   Structured Data output at Google at [https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool](https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool)
   it fails – you can have an image on the AMP page but the plugin has failed to
   include that in the Structured Metadata it generates for the page.
 * You’ll then get messages from Google Webmaster Tools / Search Console telling
   you the page is not valid. More importantly, for Google’s purposes it then has
   no hope of getting treated as AMP and getting into their news Carousel. Since
   most people would install it hoping to get that placement, the plugin is useless
   in its current state. Needs work.
 * Also some CSS configuration would be nice – currently you need another plugin
   for that.
