hi, if possible, in the next update, I'd ask you to consider this couple of things:
- I had problems with microdata from schema.org. Google said that the date wasn't in correct ISO format. I fix it by changing the function get_the_date () in get_the_date('c'), but I recommend to make this change in the next update. This is important to get the snippet stars in Google's serps.
- Another thing I suggest is to change all the include(); with the function get_template_part(), otherwise it will not work well child themes
thanks
May I know what the 'c' in get_the_date('c') stands for? Couldn't find this in WP codex.
Include() has different purpose then get_template_part(), although I could edit hard coded paths with variables if this is causing problems (didn't have complains so far).
the get_the_date('c') function returns date in ISO 8061 format. If i change the date format on my admin panel, for example in [DD-MM-YYYY], Google don't accept the snippet and I can't have star on result serp. I use this tool for check the schema.org snippet
I tried to change the date function (above) with my child-theme. I copy this file \partials\part-review-stars.php on my child directory powermag-child\partials\part-review-stars.php and modify the file. But this solution don't work. I think the problem is include() function, because i read this " PHP has a built in include() statement for this purpose, but these WordPress template tags make including certain specific files much easier." in this codex http://codex.wordpress.org/Include_Tags
and "Using with theme subfolder" section in http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_... explain that the get_template_part is used for include template file. But I'm not very sure that this solution work well.
I'm a wordpress theme developer I know WP include tags ;) , get_template_part() is used in 90% of cases throughout the theme (all files in "partials" folder are included as such), although for a number of reason is necessary to use the php include() tag in some cases. I can probably fix any chil theme compatibility issue by setting a variable path though.

I also used that tool and reviews as this one shows up fine:

I'll dig into this a bit more though.
