For what it’s worth, if you use Google Webmaster Tools on your Discourse site, you should be able to “train” it to understand the structured data. But I agree it’d be nice if it could pick everything up automatically.

It’s saying that it doesn’t know what “position” means here.

Based on what I see, most of it is fixed, it is only complaining about the lack of image

There are warnings about optional fields now, nothing looks like a bug to me.
