Hi there,
in Oct and March my site was hit by Google’s algorythm updates and as I started to dig through the Search console I noticed issues with structured data (which were not an issue before).
In particular, on my top posts (with most comments) I noticed the following errors:
- Missing field “datePublished”
- Invalid object type for field “author”
- Comment object must be nested inside a “CreativeWork” object (optional)
I understand Google is now placing more value on discussion & forums, so I wonder if these issues are now flagged as part of the helpful content update.
How can I fix these? I have the user name + date of the comments visible, why it’s not read correctly?
Here are a few links where this is an issue:

Hi there,
Apologies for our delayed response.
Just to confirm, are you currently using the latest version of the theme available?
Additionally, we recommend trying out Yoast SEO or similar SEO settings for added optimizations and useful features.

hi,
yes, I always update once it’s available. It looks like I’m on version 5.9 now
And I also have been using Yoast for years now. The first detected issue in Search Console shows 11/13/23, yet I haven’t done any structured changes to the page during 2023.
Is there a fix I can apply?
All the best,
Andrejs
