Microdata to JSON-LD Converter

You have two main options:

1. Automatically: For a single post, simply open the post editor. If the post is published and no JSON-LD exists, the plugin will automatically generate it. For all posts, use the "Bulk Rebuild Tools" on the plugin's settings page.
2. Manually: In the post editor, you can click the "Regenerate" button inside the "Schema.org JSON-LD" meta box at any time.

When this option is enabled, the plugin will automatically regenerate the JSON-LD every single time you click "Update" on a post. This ensures your structured data always matches your content, but it will overwrite any manual changes you've made in the JSON-LD text box. If you plan to manually edit your JSON-LD, you should leave this option turned off.

The "Remove Inline Microdata from HTML" option removes the Microdata attributes from the final HTML that is sent to the user's browser. It does not edit or delete your actual PHP theme files. The original Microdata will still be in your files, but it will be invisible on the front end.

The "Remove Inline Microdata from HTML" option works by capturing the entire page output after it has been generated and before it is sent to the browser. This method, while effective, may prevent some server-side caching systems (like Varnish or NGINX FastCGI Cache) from serving cached pages. This is because the output buffer signals that the content is being dynamically modified. If you are on a managed WordPress host that utilizes this type of caching, you should test this feature to ensure there are no conflicts. Alternatively, you can keep it disabled if you notice issues with your site's cache.

Yes. In the "Schema.org JSON-LD" meta box, you have two options. The "Validate" button runs a check against a built-in list of best practices for common schema types. For a complete, official analysis, use the "Test on Google" button to open the page in Google's Rich Results Test.

This plugin bears no relation whatsoever to LUMON or the MDR Department on the Severed Floor. The "Microdata" processed by this plugin is a structured data markup outlined by schema.org, which has fallen out of favor and has largely been replaced by the JSON-LD format (hence, why this converter exists).

Use the Microdata to JSON-LD Converter in 5 easy steps.

1. Open the post editor, scroll down to the box titled "Schema.org JSON-LD." Verify that the created JSON-LD matches your existing schema.org content.
2. After you have reviewed the "Schema.org JSON-LD" meta boxes on multiple posts and pages, use the Bulk Rebuild Tools to create JSON-LD meta for each post and page on your website. This build process will take several minutes for larger sites.
3. Within the General Settings of the Microdata to JSON-LD Settings, toggle on "Enable JSON-LD Output." Doing this will add the JSON-LD to the head element of your webpages. The content within the "Schema.org JSON-LD" meta boxes is now being added to your published posts and pages.
4. Within the General Settings of the Microdata to JSON-LD Settings, toggle on "Remove Inline Microdata from HTML." Doing this will strip the Microdata from the HTML output of your webpages. Although this plugin removes the inline Microdata attributes from the final public-facing HTML, it will not affect your backend theme files, plugins, and content where the Microdata markups originate.

1. To keep your JSON-LD updated going forward, toggle the option "keep JSON-LD up to date." This will ensure that your post's JSON-LD information is updated when you make changes to your posts and pages. If you have, or plan to, make manual edits within the JSON-LD meta boxes, keep this option turned off. However, in most cases, it will be helpful to automate keeping the JSON-LD up to date.
