json code warning

[Stephen]

Hello,

We’ve recently installed & configure the EventsCalenderPro version on our development server. After added some demo events, we’ve found some warning on the automated ld+json code on those demo purpose event page.
We’ve tested the ld+json code on https://developers.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/
can anyone tell us why this warning is & how to remove that error.

Please see the attached image for warning details.

Hi,

Sorry for the issues you are having. I can help troubleshoot this with you.

It looks like that warning is because our plugin does not generate a offer without tickets.

Although it is generating a warning and is recommend by Google it is not required:

offers (optional) – An offer to buy tickets for this event. If present, some subfields are required.

https://developers.google.com/structured-data/rich-snippets/events

I looked into how the plugin works and we do add offers if using Event Tickets Plus, I checked against the structured data tool and it worked correctly with that plugin and an event with tickets.

We have a filter and I created a quick snippet to fill in the offer field:

It could be expanded on to do more, but this will return a valid offer if you fill in the price.

You could add more custom fields using a plugin such as ACF to add in specific information or each events.

However, that is beyond the support we can provide on this, beyond answering a couple questions.

Thanks
