webmaster Tools showing 50 errors

I recently logged into Google Webmaster only to suddenly find over 50 errors:

Missing: author
Missing: entry-title
Missing: updated

This is for each post. I found a forum saying the fix would be:

The simple solution for this is located in single.php

<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
search for the_title and enclose it into a span tag like above.

However, I cannot find this in single.php Are you able to point me in the right direction

Hello,

The single.php file loads content.php and content-*.php files depending from the content type. Of course you can edit the headings in one place - file layouts/content.post.header.php is loaded in all content-* files. The header is generated by this fragment:

Code: Select all

<h<?php echo (is_singular()) ? '1' : '2'; ?>>
        <?php if(!is_singular()) : ?>
        <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', GKTPLNAME ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark">
        <?php endif; ?>
                <?php the_title(); ?>
        <?php if(!is_singular()) : ?>
        </a>
        <?php endif; ?>
       
        <?php if(is_sticky()) : ?>
        <sup>
                <?php _e( 'Featured', GKTPLNAME ); ?>
        </sup>
        <?php endif; ?>
</h<?php echo (is_singular()) ? '1' : '2'; ?>>

so you will have to change:

Code: Select all

<h<?php echo (is_singular()) ? '1' : '2'; ?>>

to:

Code: Select all

<h<?php echo (is_singular()) ? '1' : '2'; ?> class="entry-title">

The post meta data are generated in the gk_post_meta function in this file: gavern/helpers/helpers.layout.fragments.php

Thank you Dziudek

Appreciate your professional support as always. This worked perfectly for the title. My apologies as I don't quite understand the last sentence: The post meta data are generated in the gk_post_meta function

Could you possible let me know what I change from - to ..

I assume it would be for the last 2 errors as:

Error: Missing required field "updated".
Error: Missing required hCard "author".

OK, in this case please open file gavern/helpers/helpers.layout.fragments.php and in function gk_post_meta please change:

Code: Select all

<?php if($param_date) : ?>
                         <li class="date-mobile">
                                 <time class="entry-date" datetime="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_date(DATE_W3C)); ?>">
                                         <?php echo esc_html(get_the_date('j F, Y')); ?>
                                 </time>
                         </li>
                         <?php endif; ?>

to:

Code: Select all

<?php if($param_date) : ?>
                         <li class="date-mobile">
                                 <time class="entry-date date updated" datetime="<?php echo esc_attr(get_the_date(DATE_W3C)); ?>">
                                         <?php echo esc_html(get_the_date('j F, Y')); ?>
                                 </time>
                         </li>
                         <?php endif; ?>

and please replace:

Code: Select all

<?php if($param_author) : ?>
                                 <li>
                                         <?php _e('Written by ', GKTPLNAME); ?>
                                         <a class="url fn n" href="<?php echo esc_url(get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta('ID'))); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr(sprintf(__('View all posts by %s', GKTPLNAME), get_the_author())); ?>" rel="author"><?php echo get_the_author(); ?></a>
                                 </li>
                                 <?php endif; ?>

to:

Code: Select all

<?php if($param_author) : ?>
                                 <li class="vcard author">
                                         <?php _e('Written by ', GKTPLNAME); ?>
                                         <a class="url fn n" href="<?php echo esc_url(get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta('ID'))); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr(sprintf(__('View all posts by %s', GKTPLNAME), get_the_author())); ?>" rel="author"><?php echo get_the_author(); ?></a>
                                 </li>
                                 <?php endif; ?>

my solution is based on this entry: http://nepallica.com/fix-google-rich-sn ... wordpress/
