Inbuild Schema Type

Note: After the recent Google Review schema changes ( applicable from 16th September 2019 ), we are deprecating the Schema Support from UABB’s version 1.22.0.

Previously, we used to support Place, Organization and Service Schema. But after this update Places and Service are not valid items under the AggregateRating as per the new rules of the Google Review snippet.

While Organization is the valid Item under the AggregateRating but in this case, the name field is required to be added under the Organization schema type.

As per the new rule in Google schema, all the self-serving reviews embedded by the 3rd party widget are not going to display review rich results anymore for the organization schema.
