Rich snippet - remove <p> </p> from Description

[kadapawn]

Hello guys,

 

I have a small problem with snippet display on my website.

 

When i test this product on google snippet testing tool, i get this result

 

The error i think is becouse of the </p> <p> tags...

 

Can anybody advice on how to remove that string from product.tpl?

 

I am using prestashop 1.5.6 and a custom theme. I have addshoppers and yotpo modules active.

 

Note that string_tags was not working on my testing.

how you added rich snippet? 

basically, to variable with description add modifier: |strip_tags

[kadapawn]

this is my snippet code at the bottom of product.tpl and i see no change with |strip_tags added..

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Product" style="display:none;">
    <div itemprop="name">{$product->name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</div>
    <div itemprop="description">{$product->description_short|strip_tags|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</div>
    <img itemprop="image" src="{$link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $cover.id_image, 'large')}"/>
    <div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">
        <span itemprop="price">{convertPrice price=$productPrice}</span>
    </div>
</div>

Hello kadapawn,

 

I am sorry to tell you that you did wrong : adding the schema.org schema at the end of the page and hidding it is not the way it works.

 

The <p> elements in the description are not the problem.

 

As you can read on the error message :

This information will not appear as a rich snippet in search results, because it is contained in a hidden HTML element 

 

You have to deploy the itemtype, itemscope and itemprop directly on the existing code. Don't add it at the end and hide it.

 

For instance, you should add the itemtype and itemscope for Product on the #center_column and itemprop "name" on your <h1>.

 

Using microdata schema is about structuring your current code, not adding stuff at the end of the page to generate some richsnippets on Google.

 

Hope it helps,

Best regards,

Ciseur

i have added like this

 

<!-- left infos-->

 

<div id="pb-left-column">

<h1>{$product->name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Product" style="display:white;">

<div itemprop="name">{$product->name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</div>

<div itemprop="description">{$product->description_short|strip_tags|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</div>

<img itemprop="image" src="{$link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $cover.id_image, 'large')}"/>

<div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">

<span itemprop="price">{convertPrice price=$productPrice}</span>

</div>

</div>

</h1>

 

 

you get that error becouse of style="display:none i've changed it to style="display:white;" and error dissapeard.
