Visual Schema Page Configuration Plugin (gd_page_schema)

What is Schema?

Schema (structured data) is a standardized way to describe page content for search engines. A common implementation is JSON-LD, usually output as <script type="application/ld+json"> in page source.

It does not directly change your frontend visual design, but it helps search engines understand your page semantics more accurately. For example, on a product page, information such as product name, price, stock status, brand, and breadcrumbs can be explicitly marked.

Why Schema matters

• Improves semantic clarity so search engines can better identify entities like products, brands, and articles.
• May increase eligibility for Rich Results (price, rating, FAQ, breadcrumbs, etc.), subject to search engine rules.
• Supports differentiated output by page type and language.
• Reduces maintenance cost by moving from scattered scripts to centralized admin configuration.

Plugin Overview

Visual Schema Page Configuration Plugin is a page-level Schema management solution for BeikeShop. It integrates via hook-based non-invasive extension, supports visual editing in admin, and automatically outputs JSON-LD on frontend pages.

Core Features

• Configuration by page type: home, product, category, brand, content page, search page, and custom URL/path.
• Configuration by language: maintain independent schema output for each locale.
• Dual editing modes: - Simple mode (visual): configure object/array/string fields using a field tree. - Advanced mode (JSON): input full JSON-LD directly.
• Template library for quick setup (Organization / WebSite / Product / BreadcrumbList).
• Realtime preview of final JSON-LD output (not internal config structure).
• Automatic frontend injection of application/ld+json script.
• Built-in admin permission and menu integration.

Advantages

• Non-invasive integration: no core code changes, safer upgrades.
• Visual workflow: lower barrier for operations teams.
• Developer-friendly control: advanced mode for full JSON-LD customization.
• Maintainable architecture: clear management by page and locale.

Best-fit Scenarios

• Cross-language storefronts that need centralized structured data management.
• SEO foundation work for product, category, and brand pages.
• Teams that need both “operations-friendly configuration” and “developer-level control”.
