Rich Snipetts / schema

[EdHarrison]

I have tried a couple of times to implement this, many ecommerce sites now use this to display price / stock in google results.

I get errors or the price displaying in ex vat, can anyone recommend a developer I can employ to do this, tried one that did not work out and tried various versions found on here without success?

thank you

Here is the code I paid for that does not work - maybe someone can see why?

<!-- rich snippets BEGIN -->
<div itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Product">
<meta itemprop="currency" content="GBP" />
<meta itemprop="price" content="<actinic:variable name="PriceListRetail" value="meta retail price list" />"  />
<meta itemprop="brand" content="<actinic:variable name="brand" />" />
<meta itemprop="image" content="<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" /><actinic:variable name="SectionImageFileName" />" />

<meta itemprop="condition" content="new"> 

<meta property="og:type" content="product" />
<meta property="og:title" content="<actinic:variable name="ProductName" />" />

<meta property="og:url" 
content="<actinic:variable name="SectionPageName" />" />
</div>
<!-- Rich snippets END -->

Example from google search results:

Celestron Ultima Duo Eyepieces -
www.examples.com › Eyepieces & Barlows › Celestron
£103.00 - In stock
The new Celestron Ultima Duo eyepiece series are designed for both visual and ... This eyepiece is available in 6 focal lengths: 5 mm 8 mm 10 mm 13 mm

I have got most working now except price which shows as ex vat, tried taxinclusiveprice which displays coding errors, priceraw which is ex vat and the one below - also ex vat:

<meta itemprop="price" content="<actinic:variable name="PriceListRetail" value="meta retail price list" />" />

I'm having a serious case of deja-vu with this thread but the previous one seems to have disappeared. Did you delete it for some reason?

Try this. Note it should all be on one long line:

<meta itemprop="price" content="<actinic:block type="pricelist"><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ListIndex%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201"><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePrice" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block>" />

This code works within a Product Layout so should only be used within such layouts.

[EdHarrison]

Yes Mike - it was around a year or so ago - I replied on the end of a thread with the same issue, I have revisited the structured data thing again as it niggles me as the only issue showing in webmaster tools.

I have struggled with paying one developer, contacting 3 more and still no luck.

Norman - thank you yet again, it worked but the character before the price in the testing tool shows this:

ё145.00

Apparently this character according to Wikipedia is - The seventh letter of the Belarusian Cyrillic alphabet!!!

Guessing sellerdeck is creating the character, not sure it will do any harm unless google displays it as a rich snippet

Ed - which code have you got working? The code in your first post on this thread with the new code from Norman?

[EdHarrison]

Its not perfect - its bits from mine and a thread from a year ago - I don't really want the offer part but if removed it shows errors in the testing tool~:

<!-- rich snippets BEGIN -->
<div itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Product">
<meta itemprop="image" content="<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" /><actinic:variable name="SectionImageFileName" />" />
<meta itemprop="identifier" content="mpn:<actinic:variable name="ProductReference" />"/>
<meta itemprop="name"content="<actinic:variable name="ProductName" />" />
<meta property="og:type" content="product" />
<meta property="og:title" content="<actinic:variable name="ProductName" />" />
<meta property="og:url" content="<actinic:block php="true">echo '<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />' . basename('<actinic:variable name="ProductPageName" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />');</actinic:block>" />
</div>
<div class="purchase_data" itemprop="offerDetails" itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Offer">
<meta itemprop="condition" content="new" />
<meta itemprop="currency" content="GBP" />
<meta itemprop="price" content="<actinic:block type="pricelist"><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ListIndex%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201"><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePrice" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block>" />
<meta itemprop="availability" content="in_stock" />
<meta itemprop="seller" content="<actinic:variable name="CompanyName" />"/>
</div>
<!-- Rich snippets END -->

Thanks Ed - I had the older code I think.

That code return green ticks across the board on the testing tool for me

[NormanRouxel]

O.K. We can use a bit of SD PHP to strip anything but digits and the decimal point from the price.

<meta itemprop="price" content="£<actinic:block php="true">echo preg_replace('/[^\d\.]/', '', '<actinic:block type="pricelist"><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ListIndex%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201"><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePrice" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block>');</actinic:block>" />

And, as you sell expensive stuff, it will also get rid of the comma that SD would have put in on £1,000.00 type prices.

Thanks Norman.

The validation tool shows this url (just as an example) is all fine, with correct currency symbol in place.

[EdHarrison]

Thanks Norman, brilliant.

I will still try to find a company to sort it properly, I believe you can add breadcrumbs etc, everything seems to move on and leave us behind, 2016 still has no schema / snippets.

Hi,

yes your URL using the above code does get all green ticks :-)

One thing.. I checked the source code of this page and noticed that the code above intended to give the product page URL;

<meta property="og:url" content="<actinic:block php="true">echo '<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />' . basename('<actinic:variable name="ProductPageName" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />');</actinic:block>" />

actually only gives this;

<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.snorestore.co.uk/acatalog/" />

Does that matter do you think?

[EdHarrison]

Not sure - here is my latest one if it helps at all:

<div itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Product">
<meta itemprop="image" content="<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" /><actinic:variable name="SectionImageFileName" />" />
<meta itemprop="identifier" content="mpn:<actinic:variable name="ProductReference" />"/>
<meta itemprop="name"content="<actinic:variable name="ProductName" />" />
<meta property="og:type" content="product" />
<meta property="og:title" content="<actinic:variable name="ProductName" />" />
<meta property="og:url" content="<actinic:block php="true">echo '<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />' . basename('<actinic:variable name="ProductPageName" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />');</actinic:block>" />
</div>
<div class="purchase_data" itemprop="offerDetails" itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Offer">
<meta itemprop="condition" content="new" />
<meta itemprop="currency" content="GBP" />
<meta itemprop="price" content="<actinic:block type="pricelist"><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ListIndex%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201"><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePrice" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block>" />
<meta itemprop="availability" content="In_stock" />
<meta itemprop="seller" content="<actinic:variable name="CompanyName" />"/>
</div>

No idea. Will look when I can be arsed.

[feemish]

Thanks Ed.
The only difference in your latest code seems to be a de-capitalised 'I' in 'in_stock'

This code works but doesnt seem to supply the product page URL. It seems to just link to the catalog root.

No idea. Will look when I can be arsed.

LOL! it could be throwing up errors in your google webmaster tools?
