[Support request] Google error: Invalid value in field “itemtype”

[Allan]

Hello, we’ve been running this WooCommerce shop on GeneratePress for a couple of years, but just got this error message from Google for one of our SKUs:

Invalid value in field "itemtype"

The full code goes like this:

								<article class="post-5020 product type-product status-publish has-post-thumbnail product_cat-accessories sales-flash-overlay woocommerce-text-align-left wc-related-upsell-columns-4 wc-related-upsell-tablet-columns-2 wc-related-upsell-mobile-columns-1 do-quantity-buttons wc-has-gallery first instock purchasable product-type-variable has-default-attributes" id="post-5020" itemtype="itemtype=&quot;https://schema.org/CreativeWork&quot;" itemscope>

Strangely, this error only applies to this one product: https://workgadgets.ph/product/mouse-mat-reversible/ . Google doesn’t complain about the dozen other products live on Google Merchant.

While we do have SEOPress configured for SEO needs, we’ve never touched any Schema settings so this is likely a default GP value.

Any thoughts on correcting this? Plus, extra curious how this became an issue for one item just now after a couple years?

Hi Allan,

It may be a bug. Our development theme is already looking into it, and will try to have a fix on the next update very soon.
