[Support request] AMP Error: A value for the url field is required.

[Amit]

When I am testing structured data, the error ‘A value for the url field is required.’

Hi there,

Are you adding a URL field somewhere on the page?

[Amit]

Somewhere in the footer widget, if I am right about what you are asking.

[Tom]

I’m not seeing any URL fields in the footer? Is there somewhere on your site someone can add their URL?

[Amit]

No, it’s the blog section. No one can add the URL. IN sidebar, I guess I’v added links to 2 of my pages. This page is popping the error – https://www.friedcoffee.com/blog/amp/

I just looked through the HTML and couldn’t find any URL fields on that page.

It does seem to be using some sort of custom solution other than GP. Maybe a plugin?

Hey folks,

I’m a bit of a newb so It took me a while to figure this one out but I hope this helps someone else who might be experiencing this issue.

I have the Schema plugin installed on my site in addition to the Yoast plugin. I had my logo in the Site Identity area and in Yoast and I couldn’t figure out why I was seeing this error.

Turns out, the settings on the Schema plugin override the settings on the Yoast plugin so all I needed to do was add my logo to the Schema plugin.

Problem solved.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for sharing! 🙂
