    Hello to all,

    If I understand correctly, Studiopress recently made changes to the Genesis framework. Some of these changes were schema (and HTML5) specific. I have a few questions regarding schema markup and the framework itself.

    How best would I make the site-wide and page specific markups?

    As I see it…

    I believe the current default schema markup found in Genesis themes is “creativework-blog”. Is this correct?

    I can use the new “Microdata Manager” plugin to make the markup more topic-specific? But as I understand it, changes to the schema settings would be done on a page by page basis.

      (1) Is this accurate?
      (2) And would those that are more knowledgeable about coding recommend this solution?
      (3) Or would it be better (or cleaner) to use a more detailed approach, one that alters the files that come with the specific theme?
      (4) And how might this change if I decided to use the “Dynamik Genesis Theme” as opposed to the HTML5 ready Studiopress child themes?

    With respect to marking up specific content within the pages (or posts) using schema:

      (5) How would this be done?
      (6) Is it as easy as embedding the schema code into the “html” portion of the WordPress editor where the content actually displays (i.e. a business address and name)? Or does this type of markup belong in theme files and/or elsewhere in the html code found on the pages themselves (such as the header tag).

    There’s so much info regarding schema (both Genesis and non-Genesis related). But I’m afraid there is little out there that touches on code placement and/or best practices.

    Your thoughts would be appreciated.

    No thoughts, but you raise some very interesting questions and since I'm very interesting I want to follow this topic.

    Here's a post that I found on Yoast about Schema & G2 that may help answer some of the questions: http://yoast.com/schema-org-genesis-2-0/

    Thanks sdbroker, and thanks for the link. I've read that particular article before and unfortunately it answered some of my previous questions but has led me to more.

    @isaeed9 Did you find any more info on the subject? I found this example on Google Developers pages that helps a lot, but it's a lot of work if you manually do the html on the site.
