Google Schema for COVID-19 and More Free Features!

On March 17th 2020, in response to COVID-19 self-isolation trends, Google published new Schema Event properties for virtual, postponed, and cancelled events.

The latest Premium version of WPSSO Schema JSON-LD Markup provides several customization options for these new Schema Event properties in the Document SSO metabox.

This past month, the Free / Standard versions of WPSSO Core and its WPSSO Schema JSON-LD Markup add-on have also received several new features — most notably, almost all customization options in the Document SSO metabox are now available in the Free / Standard version of WPSSO Core (except those options that require an integration feature in the Premium version to implement, like the video service APIs), and the Free / Standard version of WPSSO Schema JSON-LD Markup now includes all 495 supported Schema types!

The WPSSO Social Sharing Buttons add-on has been removed from the SSO > Complementary Add-ons settings page, and will soon be deprecated (ie. removed from the WordPress.org and WPSSO.com websites).

As always, if you have any questions or comments, you can open a ticket on our Premium support site.
