 * Hi Marcus,
    as Google, Yahoo and Bing found a convergence with schema.org, seems
   an easy prediction that in 2013 we’re going to see a quick adoption rise for 
   web 3.0 semantic web technologies pushed forward from a discrete SEO reward.
 * As Events Manager is the “serious” plugin for the event/place ontology in wordpress
   it seems natural to me that it should adopt and conform it’s WP custom post types
   and relative metaboxes translating from the schema.org data type and properties
   in backend fields and microdata HTML outputs.
 * I’d like to know if you thought about this and have early plans to implement 
   schema.org in some way.

 * Hi,
 * maybe [@marcus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcus/) has a better idea
   about this.

 * to be honest, it’s something I’ve wanted to do since 2011, but alas, so many 
   features, so little time!
 * that said, good to know they’ve all converged so hopefully something we can add
   this year. when exactly is the golden question….

 * unfortunately we haven’ tmanaged to get to this yet. however, we have studied
   the possibility and concluded that this is already possible by changing your 
   formats in your settings page.
 * we intend on revamping the default formats that ship with EM to include more 
   information in a consistent style, at which point we’ll also be looking into 
   adding schema.org in the format too.

 * Wouldn’t actually have to be that hard. Via an `add_theme_support( 'schema' );`
   call you could implement something [like this](http://blog.avirtualhome.com/events-manager-extend-it-with-rich-snippets/).

 * Thanks for sharing your trick [@defries](https://wordpress.org/support/users/defries/),
   however it would be great to have this option nativelly, somewhere in the future…

 * nice, didn’t know that existed!
 * I’ll take a closer look at that, although I was hoping to avoid adding meta tags
   to everything and use inline tags in a format fashion. will take that into consideration
   though.
