Y’all can check your Google Search Console report, but when I go to [https://search.google.com/search-console/r/discussion-forum](https://search.google.com/search-console/r/discussion-forum) and check my forum, I see this:

> Why items are invalid:
> 
> - Either “text”, “image”, or “video” should be specified
> - Missing field “datePublished”
> - Missing field “author”
> 
> Improve item appearance
> 
> - Missing field “url”
> - Missing field “text” (in “comment”)

So there does appear to be more work to do here.
