[SEO] Add Microdata Breadcrumbs

1 Attachment(s)

Hello.
Before you find out what this mod does, you need to have some knowledge of Microdata.

Now its time to take advantage of this wonderful feature; and we will label our breadcrumbs to describe it's type to Google for better understanding and to presenting your site better in Google search result.

In order add microdata tags in our breadcrumb here is what we need to do:

(please take backup of your template before performing following steps)

Step 1:

Find and Replace everything in navbar_link template with the following code:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['breadcrumb']">

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb">

    <li class="navbit"><a href="{vb:raw nav_url}" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title">{vb:raw nav_title}</span></a></li>

</div>

<vb:else />

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb">

    <li class="navbit lastnavbit"><span><span itemprop="title">{vb:raw nav_title}</span></span></li>

</div>

</vb:if>

Step 2:

Code:

Hit Save button !!

And That's it you are done. Now you just have to wait until Google show your website in search result like this:

That one is really cool.
Applied that to my forum.

Thos who need to check if the code is working or now, try using Google Webmaster Rich Snippets Testing Tool here - http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

Original 4.1.10 code

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['breadcrumb']">

        <li class="navbit"><a href="{vb:raw nav_url}">{vb:raw nav_title}</a></li>

<vb:else />

        <li class="navbit lastnavbit"><span>{vb:raw nav_title}</span></li>

</vb:if>

Just making a note (public). Am installing this now and will compare the results

Upon 3rd review, not installing.

You'd really need to 1) Change the link to your own site 2) Have re-write rules for this (more so if you're using nginx)

Well it seems to be propagating on my serps.

I noticed it hasnt yet for threads or profiles yet.
Google reports for threads: Warning: Itemtype not recognized.

I havent determined if this hasnt returned any visitor results improvements yet.

But I like how it looks so far.

smirkley

01-09-2013 02:27 AM

Bump,... so this works for threads? or am I not seeing it right.

its easy , replace this:

Code:



<vb:if condition="$show['breadcrumb']">

        <li class="navbit"><a href="{vb:raw nav_url}">{vb:raw nav_title}</a></li>

<vb:else />

        <li class="navbit lastnavbit"><span>{vb:raw nav_title}</span></li>

</vb:if>

Code:



<vb:if condition="$show['breadcrumb']">

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb">

    <li class="navbit"><a href="{vb:raw nav_url}" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="title">{vb:raw nav_title}</span></a></li>

</div>

<vb:else />

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb">

    <li class="navbit lastnavbit"><span><span itemprop="title">{vb:raw nav_title}</span></span></li>

</div>

</vb:if>

    <li class="navbit lastnavbit"><span><span itemprop="title">{vb:raw nav_title}</span></span></li>

</div>

</vb:if>

I know, I got that part of the mod.

I have had this installed for weeks but it doesnt seem to be applying to threads.

And after testing a thread link with this tool...
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

I get this as a result,...

Quote:

Warning: Itemtype not recognized.

I would expect a result like this,..

Website > Catagory > Threadname

So what am I not understanding?
