Hi there,

Currently, that how it should be as Google enforce us to use positive integer for overall rating as you can see here http://take.ms/fIsUQ.

Maybe you can try to change them here .../components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/entry/default.posts.php and change them accordingly using codes below and try to check them here https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool

[gist type="php"]
<?php if (!$preview && $this->config->get('main_ratings') && $this->entryParams->get('post_ratings', true)) { ?>
"aggregateRating": {
"@type": "http://schema.org/AggregateRating",
"ratingValue": "<?php echo $ratings->total ? round($ratings->ratings / 2, 2) : 0; ?>",
"worstRating": "0",
"bestRating": "5",
"ratingCount": "<?php echo $ratings->total ? $ratings->total : 0; ?>"
}
<?php } ?>
[/gist]

You will shown error like screenshot given. Please advice.

Hello,
i know about the problem of google and i fixed in this way: if the article has a rating value i show structured data snippet with correct value of rating, nothing otherwise.

There is the snippet of code i'm currently using and all is ok my side. May you include this fix in next version if you want.

<script type="application/ld+json">

	{

		"@context": "http://schema.org",

		"mainEntityOfPage": "<?php echo $post->getPermalink(true, true); ?>",

		"@type": "BlogPosting",

		"headline": "<?php echo $post->getTitle();?>",

		"image": "<?php echo $post->getImage($this->config->get('cover_size_entry', 'large'), true, true);?>",

		"editor": "<?php echo $post->getAuthor()->getName();?>",

		"genre": "<?php echo $post->getPrimaryCategory()->title;?>",

		"wordcount": "<?php echo $post->getTotalWords();?>",

		"publisher": {

			"@type": "Organization",

			"name": "<?php echo EB::showSiteName(); ?>",

			"logo": <?php echo $post->getSchemaLogo(); ?>

		},

		"datePublished": "<?php echo $post->getPublishDate(true)->format('Y-m-d');?>",

		"dateCreated": "<?php echo $post->getCreationDate(true)->format('Y-m-d');?>",

		"dateModified": "<?php echo $post->getModifiedDate()->format('Y-m-d');?>",

		"description": "<?php echo EB::jconfig()->get('MetaDesc'); ?>",

		"articleBody": "<?php echo htmlentities($content, ENT_QUOTES);?>",

		"author": {

			"@type": "Person",

			"name": "<?php echo $post->getAuthor()->getName();?>",

			"image": "<?php echo $post->creator->getAvatar();?>"

		}

		<?php if (!empty($ratings->total)) {?>

			<?php if ( !$preview && $this->config->get('main_ratings') && $this->entryParams->get('post_ratings', true)) { ?>

			,

				"aggregateRating": {

					"@type": "http://schema.org/AggregateRating",

					"ratingValue": "<?php echo $ratings->total ? round($ratings->ratings / 2, 2) : 1; ?>",

					"worstRating": "1",

					"bestRating": "5",

					"ratingCount": "<?php echo $ratings->total ? $ratings->total : 1; ?>"

				}

			<?php } ?>

		<?php } ?>

	}
