WordPress Schema Plugin – Structured Data Made Easy

Adding structured data to WordPress should be simple, fast and under your control.

CC Schema & Structured Data is a lightweight WordPress schema plugin that lets you add clean, standards-compliant JSON-LD markup to your pages without relying on bloated SEO suites or external services.

Designed for performance and privacy, it gives you full control over what schema is output and how it is structured.

Why use a dedicated WordPress schema plugin?

Many popular SEO plugins include structured data, but they often:

  • add unnecessary features and overhead
  • limit your control over schema output
  • inject scripts or tracking elements
  • make it difficult to customise individual pages

This plugin focuses purely on structured data, giving you a cleaner, faster and more flexible solution.

Key Features

Add schema directly in the editor

Use the Gutenberg sidebar to add structured data per page or post:

  • Article and BlogPosting
  • WebPage
  • FAQPage
  • HowTo
  • Service
  • AboutPage and ContactPage

No coding required and no complicated configuration.

Smart FAQ detection

The plugin automatically detects FAQ-style content from your page and allows you to:

  • select or deselect questions
  • refine answers
  • output clean FAQ schema

Supports:

  • standard heading and paragraph patterns
  • WordPress accordion blocks
  • Kadence, Spectra and Stackable blocks

Site-wide schema

Configure global structured data from a simple settings page:

  • Organisation
  • LocalBusiness
  • WebSite
  • Breadcrumbs

All schema is correctly linked using a single JSON-LD graph.

Built-in schema validation

Avoid common mistakes with intelligent validation:

  • warns about conflicting schema types
  • prevents incorrect combinations
  • helps ensure your markup reflects your content

Lightweight and privacy focused

Unlike many alternatives, this plugin:

  • does not track users
  • does not load external scripts
  • does not rely on third-party APIs
  • keeps your site fast and clean

How it works

  1. Install and activate the plugin
  2. Configure site-wide schema in Settings → CC Schema
  3. Edit any page or post
  4. Add schema types from the sidebar
  5. Save your content

The plugin outputs a clean JSON-LD structure automatically.

What structured data can do for your site

Structured data helps search engines understand your content more clearly, which can improve:

  • visibility in search results
  • click-through rates
  • eligibility for enhanced search features
  • overall site structure and indexing

It does not guarantee rich results, but it significantly improves how your content is interpreted.
