Hi
I’m running WP 4.1 and the latest Yoast plugin and I’m seeing an error in Google Webmaster Tools that says:
Missing: author
Missing required hCard “author”.
Missing: updated
I’m not sure where I forgot to add in that information. Any ideas how I add that to each post/page?
I believe that this issue about “Missing: updated” might not be related to the SEO plugin but with the theme i am currently using DW-Focus.
Please Help
The answer you given in the above link does not provide any value.. where to make the change in dw-focus theme.. please little bit more clear atleast this time .
Thanks
Timtime.

Hi,
Sorry about that.
You can open the teplate-tags.php file in the folder path “wp-content\themes\dw-focus\inc”. Find the line 139 to line 147, replace the following code:
Warning: Missing required field “updated”
function dw_focus_posted_on() {
the_category();
printf( '<time class="entry-date" datetime="%3$s" pubdate>%4$s</time>',
esc_url( get_permalink() ),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
dw_human_time()
);
}
With new code:
function dw_focus_posted_on() {
the_category();
printf( '<time class="entry-date updated" datetime="%3$s" pubdate>%4$s</time>',
esc_url( get_permalink() ),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
dw_human_time()
);
}
Warning: Missing required hCard “author”
– You can open the functions.php file. Find the line 478 to line 481.
Replace the following code:
<div class="author-info">
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ), 96 ); ?>
<a class="author-name" href="<?php echo esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ); ?>" rel="author"><?php echo get_the_author(); ?></a></h2>
</div><!-- .author-info -->
With new code:
<div class="author-info vcard">
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ), 96 ); ?>
<a class="author-name url fn n" href="<?php echo esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ); ?>" rel="author"><?php echo get_the_author(); ?></a></h2>
</div><!-- .author-info -->
Hope this helps !
