Why does joomla or Virtuemart display a different code on the site than the one written?
Editing description in category VM. I want to add microdata for FAQ. I have the code set correctly. But the web will change a bit for me.
I have saved:
<h3 itemprop="name">XXX?</h3>
In the web code I see:
<h3 >XXX?</h3>
Something will delete itemprop = "name" from <h3>.
I have the JCE editor turned off.

I would try without the Quix editor.

I see. I don't use the Quix editor, but I'll try to turn it off hard to save. One never knows. Maybe it can really have an effect.

Jörgen
No. I turned off all extensions containing the word Quix completely, and the problem still exists. it will be something else. I guess I have to turn it off and keep trying.
Is the saved data in your VM/jommla html correct ? If it is, some jscript based cleaning is done when the code is put on your web.
Jörgen
I see everything in the administration as I wrote it down. Even if I save and reopen it, I always see it correctly. just an frontend it's different.
Then I guess that there is some plugin that tinkers with the code at time of rendering. Do You have some extension for rich snippets ?
Jörgen
Yes. tassos.gr. . . but I've already tried to turn everything off. It did not help.
I have tried this in both product and category description. I can not see Your behaviour.
Have You cleared cache between tests ?
Fumbling in the dark here. Are You showing several categories on the same page ? All with the same code ?
Jörgen
Hi. I am not understand you :(
All time I see my problem. You not?
Hi
in this case use the meta, so just try like this:
...
<h3>Co je kutr?</h3>
<meta itemprop="name" content="Co je kutr?" />
...
but if possible it would be far better to implement your microdata in the template.
And if you do it in your html content, it could be more simple to put your data at the end with json, just allow it in jce settings.
Example for FAQ Page:
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "FAQPage",
"mainEntity": [{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "What is the return policy?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Most unopened items in new condition and returned within <strong>90 days</strong> will receive a refund or exchange. Some items have a modified return policy noted on the receipt or packing slip. Items that are opened or damaged or do not have a receipt may be denied a refund or exchange. Items purchased online or in-store may be returned to any store.<br /><p>Online purchases may be returned via a major parcel carrier. <a href=http://example.com/returns> Click here </a> to initiate a return.</p>"
}
}, {
"@type": "Question",
"name": "How long does it take to process a refund?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "We will reimburse you for returned items in the same way you paid for them. For example, any amounts deducted from a gift card will be credited back to a gift card. For returns by mail, once we receive your return, we will process it within 4–5 business days. It may take up to 7 days after we process the return to reflect in your account, depending on your financial institution's processing time."
}

}

}
}, {

To sirius:
Quoteit would be far better to implement your microdata in the template
It not possible, because this html is putted in category description as "fejk".
Then not all category description have to the same rich snippets for FAQ and all info about rich snippets for every VM category are dynamic == right info is only in category description after putted by admin - sometime yes, sometime no.
And if use json, then admin must be high level speshitpillt and undestand how put it this json to category description and duplicated his work too (is time expensive).
Problem is only this:
for "h3" - clear meta mark
for "p" - not clear meta mark
Maybe problem is inside definition about category description in mysql or in PHP file - first check model for category and second function for save infromation about category and third check mysql definition for category description (in language table too!)
i just tell the solution for his particular case
as I said the <meta can do the job
but if you put microdata in your html content, obviously it become time expensive to maintain as it's not dynamic at all...it's a choice.
So in this case just use Google Structured Data Pro extension (https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/search-a-indexing/web-search/google-structured-data/) very convenient
And with this one (that I use on some sites) you will be able to put json/faq on virtuemart categories of your choice dynamically.
Just choose between automatic and manual mode.
With automatic it detects css selectors, so you just have to put the right selector in your html, so data are applied dynamically.
(https://nsa40.casimages.com/img/2021/03/12/mini_210312121111443670.jpg) (https://www.casimages.com/i/210312121111443670.jpg.html)
Then you just choose the VM categories that need this one
(https://nsa40.casimages.com/img/2021/03/12/mini_210312121111290302.jpg) (https://www.casimages.com/i/210312121111290302.jpg.html)
Jobe done, fire and forget
Or use manual mode then you can put the whole json code directly.
to sirius:
Im very sceptic, because the extensions from tassos for VM category add rich snippets for category shop and not both - for FAQ and for VM category, isn't it?
For me the best option is find bug and fixed or the last option add json at the end html for category description.
Or (and now Im thinking about this) put articles into category description by articles anywhare?
But the basic question is why putted FAQ rich sbippets into category description (will there be any benefit?).
Finally we use other solution for shop category with faq in our shop - add our modul with all type faq articles conected to right category (yes, some little custom developing).

So in this case just use Google Structured Data Pro extension (https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/search-a-indexing/web-search/google-structured-data/)
I have it a nd use about two years. Its the best solution for it, but this dont know add FAQ into Virtuemart Category :(
Yout solution . . . adding code manually into description wor fine. But I'm afraid the e-shop administrator will accidentally delete these codes. That's why I thought of finding a plugin that will add a custom field to the category administration, into which I will enter these codes and the plugin will load them in the page.
Just look at my screenshots is a good start
But documentation is here:
https://www.tassos.gr/joomla-extensions/google-structured-data-markup/docs/the-virtuemart-integration (https://www.tassos.gr/joomla-extensions/google-structured-data-markup/docs/the-virtuemart-integration)
Perhaps, as you already have this extension, it would be nice to open a support ticket on tassos.fr to get the best advice to achieve what you need.

Yes, but Tassos says:
Hello Martin,
Google Structured Data does not produce any schema at list, category pages but only on single pages.
Read more on doc: Why I can't see the Structured Data on the Category, Blog or List view?
Oh ok
too bad, :-\
so did you try with the <meta ?

Sirius, for this code you use any tools or configurator? Or only PSpad :)
PSpad, Notepad++ as you wish.
You also can use a generator if you want, this one below is just an example:
