Google Structured Data integrates perfectly with RSBlog! All you have to do is to make sure that the integration is enabled and then you'll be able to assign a Content Type to an RSBlog Post easily. Let's see how to check if the integration is enabled. Bear in mind that by default it should be enabled.

Enable Integration

As with all of the integrations, go to Components → Google Structured Data → Configuration and open the Integrations tab, where all integrations are listed.

Find the "RSBlog" Integration in the list and make sure that it is enabled with the green checkmark indicator as shown in the screenshot below.

Add Article Structured Data to RSBlog Posts

Let's see how you can add the Article Content Type to RSBlog Posts. Go to Components → Google Structured Data → Items and click New to create a new structured data item.

GSD New Item

Enter a Title, then select the Article content type and the RSBlog integration. Integration View is filled in automatically with Post Detail.

Once you pick a content type and an integration, the form reloads and 2 new sections appear:

Article: This section helps you map the content type properties with page fields, custom fields, site info or custom values.
Publishing Rules: This is where you can select the pages where the structured data is going to be generated to.

To learn more details on how you can use these sections visit the How to Add Structured Data to Pages documentation page.

Publishing Rules

In case, you don't want to generate the Article Content Type to all posts, you can use the available publishing rules to target specific posts. Each rule is Disabled by default. Set it to Include or Exclude and pick the items. The RSBlog Integration implements the following publishing rules:

Name	Description
Post	Target specific RSBlog Posts only.
Category	Target all posts assigned to specific RSBlog categories.

To learn more about the Publishing Rules section visit the How to add Structured Data to Pages documentation page.

Remember, in case you don't enable any publishing rules, the structured data will be generated on all RSBlog posts.

Notes

The Structured Data is generated only in the post view where a single RSBlog post is displayed. The Category or List views are not currently supported.
