Rating schema issue?

Hi,

I use the Rating element and the Schema option and I get an error in GSC regarding the Author (of the rating/review) - see attached image.

When inspecting I can see that Pro/Cornerstone outputs author-type as “Thing” and after some google’ing I can see that should “Person” instead.

I guess it’s an error on your end or have I misunderstood something?

You can test it if you want here: Logo design

We don’t send the author type in that schema and that’s apparently valid schema from schema.org. But it seems like Google doesn’t like that in your picture. I see you used a plugin to fix this so you are probably already fine. We’ll update the rating element to send the @type. Have a great weekend.
