Schema.org update?

Hi,

I’m not shure if this has some effect on search engines and AI-search. But SEO addon looks outdated. It creates like this schema code:

<script type="application/ld+json">
{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/",
"@type":"http:\/\/schema.org\/Product",
"name":"Product name",
"sku":"123300",
"brand":{
	"@type":"Brand",
	"name":"My brand"
},
"description":"description"
...
}

I think the new code should be like this (by schema.org). Check @context and @type values:

<script type="application/ld+json">
 {
 "@context": "https://schema.org",
 "@type": "Product",
 "aggregateRating": {
 "@type": "AggregateRating",
 "ratingValue": "3.5",
 "reviewCount": "11"
 },
"description": "Description",
 "name": "Kenmore White 17\" Microwave",
 "image": "kenmore-microwave-17in.jpg",

I think it would be wise to update the code.

Don’t look at the code but instead look at the output on the page’s source. It should be correct.

{
    "@context": "http://schema.org",
    "@type": "Product",

I got code from browsers Inspector. Bellow is I think demo cs-cart 4.18.2 version. Never the less when I run test on https://validator.schema.org/ there is no error reported.

I just remembered that I am using ecom’s structured data addon.

I don’t think you have much to worry about. Even google’s test shows it’s good. Rich Results Test - Google Search Console

Does anybody has some experience if updated schema.org has some influence on SEO on any of search or AI platforms. If it does I would install plugin which updates cs-cart present schema.
