Google Data Highlighter

[pylon]

Can you provide a definitive answer to this question?

Do we need to bother trying to implement Google’s Data Highlighter on a site running The Event Calendar (Pro)?

(I.e. No need because schema.org for events is built in by default)

I’ve been having a play with the tool on client site at http://www.etal.org.uk/events/ but it doesn’t like the way the site is set up and says the individual event pages aren’tin Google’s index.

What is a good search query to run to see how Google is displaying the event rich snippets for this site?

Hi and welcome 🙂

Based on my experience with the data highlighter tool, there is the potential of a theme and/or plugin conflict based on what you’ve shared with me.

What is a good search query to run to see how Google is displaying the event rich snippets for this site?

I typically resort to doing a Google search along the lines of:

“site:http://your-site.com/event/single-event”

I see you have Yoast SEO plugin installed on your site and you have a Google Webmaster account. Between those two, you should be able to fully manage the SEO titles, descriptions, etc. Please let me know if this helps answer your question and have a great rest of your day!
