PS 1.6 Website - Received Breadcrumb warning from Google 21/1/20 need help....

cwiz · January 21, 2020

Hi,

I run a PS 1.6.1.24 website and today I like I assume alot of other people received a "Breadcrumb Warning" for 90% of my indexed web pages.

I have found a number of posts online for this and an official post from Google re changing from Data-vocabulary.org to Schema.org for the Breadcrumbs and this update from Google

https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2020/01/data-vocabulary.html

However - I'm not a coder and don't know how to implement this???

My breadcrumb.tpl file from the theme folder is below, is it this file that needs to be altered or other files??

Can anybody help if it is this file with modifying it to the Scheme.org breadcrumb setup??

Here is my breadcrumb.tpl file

Fix on Prestashop
Personally, the 2 warning emails I received concern two Prestashop shops.

So here is the procedure to correct this on your shop (Prestashop 1.6).

Go to your theme folder and open the breadcrumb.tpl file.

and replace all the content with this one (it works with the default theme of Prestashop 1.6) :

(Be careful though, your breadcrumb of your theme may not be the same as this one... and in that case, you'll certainly need to call a Prestashop developer to adapt it).

Fixed the BreadCrumb :
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/vinvin27/39d61ebe902170d8d92ef57ccd261e3f/raw/563f5b5c06bf8e09f2c91baa3798c48916b7b3e0/Breadcrumb%20%20Prestashop%201.6

Don't forget to empty the Prestashop cache to take into account the changes in the tpl file.

Check that Google likes editing
Google's "structured data test" tool allows you to validate that everything is working properly after this change.

Go here: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/

And copy/paste the link from your BreadCrumb page.

Before you probably got the warning:

And then after editing the breadcrumb.tpl:

Victory.

Sorry no, I'm not a coder just find the solution for the default theme

you'll certainly need to contact your Prestashop theme author or call a Prestashop developer to adapt it

Best regards

Patrick

Daresh · January 22, 2020

You can also try this module:

mkkorleone · January 22, 2020

Super this is the solution.Tnx for module.

cwiz · January 22, 2020

Thank you sincerely for the fixes, I have now requested a validation fix for the problem from Google.

I used the code in the message from @Electols and that works perfectly. Tested each warning was 78 last night, now at 320 with Rich Snppets test tool and its all good.

I contacted my custom theme developer and they sent me exactly the same code update as the default theme update in the message from @Electols, after finally realising that there was a problem with the breadcrumbs file, so other users with custom themes, give it a try (worked for me )

Full respect to everybody that help

Daresh · January 27, 2020

Yes, that's the best solution! A module may be usefull if someone would like to link also the last element of the breadcrumb.

metacreo · January 27, 2020

Page with self linked clickable link in breadcrumb nav. I think it not good SEO solution. Search engines may ignore this link and keep it as dirty or it can lead to the generation of unwanted links that are perceived as duplicates, thereby losing the total weight of the page. ( --- "seo?", "SEO" and SEO! ---- "V.I. Lenin" 😄 )

Hi

I have replaced my breadcrumb in version 1.6.1.3 with that of metacreo, and now I get a new error that is "the item field is missing".

Can someone help me about it. Thank you.

Thank you

I think you have a simple syntax error. check copied code near

{if !empty($breadcrumbs)}
{foreach from=$breadcrumbs item=breadcrumb name=crumbs}
		<li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ListItem">
{if !empty($breadcrumb.url)}
			<a href="{$breadcrumb.url}" itemprop="item" title="{$breadcrumb.title}">
				<span itemprop="name">{$breadcrumb.title}</span>
			</a>
{else}
			<span itemprop="name">{$breadcrumb.title}</span>
{/if}
			<meta itemprop="position" content="{($smarty.foreach.crumbs.iteration|intval + 1)}" />
		</li>
{/foreach}
{/if}

search by "data-gg=". I see old code fragments.
Better is just replace your file with attached file from this topic.

DO NOT FORGET to clean smarty cache after this manipulations.

Josediecinueve · February 24, 2020

Hello, first of all thanks for your interest.

In principle I do not see any difference between my code and the one that you indicate to me, anyway I have returned to copy and paste the file, I will tell you how it works.

metacreo · February 24, 2020

<ol class="breadcrumb" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/BreadcrumbList">
  <li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/ListItem">

  </li>

itemprop=" itemprop=" item"="" title= SYNTAX

data-gg="" OLD CODE

OR Maybe you need just clean cache

Josediecinueve · February 25, 2020

Where do you access to check my breadcrumb.tpl?

I say it so I can do it myself and not bother you anymore.

Thank you.

metacreo · February 25, 2020

Don`t worry. )))

I not have access to your files.

I just looked in browser as developer.

Josediecinueve · February 26, 2020

Hi Metacreo,

Could you check if my breadcrumb.tpl is now correct?

Could you tell me once you see the browser as a web developer what are the steps to do the check ?. It is to learn to do it myself.

Thank you

metacreo · February 26, 2020

No changes in browser. Do you cleaned PS smarty cache after modification ? (In backoffice Advanced Parameters > Performance Clear Cache)

To check html in browser I use Mozilla FireFox, on target page (product page) press F12. Then press ctrl+shift+C and simple click on your breadcrumb on page (Home>COMPLEMENTOS>Escritura>Hugo Boss>Recambio Bolígrafo HPR541NF Negro Punta fina). In bottom panel you can see and navigate html who server passed to browser.

Josediecinueve · February 26, 2020

Yes I cleaned cache.

My version is 1.6.1.3, will it have something to do?

Should the breadcrumb.tpl file be in / httpdocs / themes / default-bootstrap ?.

I do not know what happens.

Thank you.

metacreo · February 26, 2020

Yes, this file. /httpdocs/themes/default-bootstrap/breadcrumb.tpl

I can check syntax if you sent me file. Do not set raw file, put it to zip folder or compress by another app (7-z, rar, tar, etc...)

You can use PM or publish in post.

Edited February 26, 2020 by metacreo (see edit history)

Josediecinueve · February 27, 2020

The file is correct, it is the annex you published, what I do not know is because it is not updated.

Now I see 12 pages that return a soft 404 and I don't know why.

I do not understand anything

metacreo · February 27, 2020

Download this file breadcrumb.tpl

Do NOT save this file in other editors to prevent unicode standards changes.

Replace your file with downloaded.

Clean cache.

Josediecinueve · February 27, 2020

It remains the same metacreo, I have checked it as a developer

I think there is some weird module out there that does not allow updating the code, but I have already uninstalled all the breadcrumbs and rich snippets that I had

Thank you

metacreo · February 27, 2020

Try disable "Minify HTML" in Performance > Advanced Parameters

Then clean cache.

If html code still old, try delete breadcrubd.tpl file

After 500 error on page, put tpl file back and clean cache again.

Very strange situation on your site )))

metacreo · February 27, 2020

I see. Seem to problem in some module.
try disable yotpo module

If no success you need search of code fragment "data-gg=" in modules folder.
If you have ssh access to web-root, go to site folder and exec ( grep -rl 'data-gg=' ./ ) search command, look code path
If no ssh, download site on PC and search code by some editor Notepad++, dreamviewer, etc...

Josediecinueve · February 28, 2020

Metacreo finally found the error.

It was a Tools.php file that I did not remember that I had created in override/classes 15 days ago, following a website that theoretically corrected the theme of breadcrumb.
I wanted to thank you for all the interest you have taken to help me.
Greetings.

vitis-it · March 8, 2020

Hello everyone.

I followed the instructions as described above. Google sees everything correctly and all warnings have disappeared. Unfortunately, the bread crumbs on the page look like above. One line has made a lot and I can't handle it. Could someone possibly help me.

Of course, I cleared the cache and smarty and compiled the template

Thank you.

Filip

Edited March 8, 2020 by vitis-it (see edit history)

metacreo · March 10, 2020

You have too much html bugs in your template (divs in head, improperly closed tags, etc...). I recommend you first fix its. Then check product locations in categories. Check smarty variables $smarty.capture.path $breadcrumbs $matches in template. Maybe some $var have conflicts. To visually view variables and data arrays you can use:

<pre>
{$some_variabe|print_r}
</pre>

right in tpl files.
