Request for Dynamic Schema.org in Theme Components

Dev
1

Hi,

I’d like to request the ability to add dynamic Schema.org JSON-LD for created topics and their replies in Discourse themes. It would be helpful to automatically generate schema data for:

Topic: Title, author, and creation date
Replies: Author, reply date, and content

This would significantly improve SEO and help with rich search results, making it easier for search engines to understand both topics and replies.

Is there anyway to fullfill this requirement?

Thank you

Why would you need this in theme components?

BTW The crawler view already provides JSON-LD for topics.

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
   "@context":"http://schema.org",
   "@type":"QAPage",
   "name":"Request for Dynamic Schema.org in Theme Components",
   "mainEntity":{
      "@type":"Question",
      "name":"Request for Dynamic Schema.org in Theme Components",
      "text":"Hi,\n\nI'd like to request the ability to add dynamic <a href=\"http://Schema.org\" rel=\"noopener nofollow ugc\">Schema.org<\/a> JSON-LD for created topics and their replies in Discourse themes. It would be helpful to automatically generate schem

      }
   }
}
</script>

Hi,

Thank you for your response. However, when I view the source code of the topic page, I don’t see any schema markup. Is there a way to enable or add it?

Thank you

Discourse provides a special view to crawlers. Since the JSON-LD is not meant for human consumption, it is not in the regular view.
