Is your WordPress theme or website built with inline Schema.org Microdata? As search engines increasingly prefer the JSON-LD format for structured data, updating your site can be a significant challenge. Manually removing old Microdata and creating new JSON-LD scripts for every page is tedious and error-prone.

The Microdata to JSON-LD Converter solves this exact problem. This plugin seamlessly automates the entire conversion process:

Scans Your Pages: It fetches the full HTML of your published posts and pages, ensuring it captures all Microdata, whether it’s in your post content or your theme files (like header.php).
Converts to JSON-LD: It intelligently parses the itemscope, itemtype, and itemprop attributes and converts them into a well-structured JSON-LD script.
Removes Inline Microdata: Optionally, it can clean up your public-facing HTML by removing the now-redundant Microdata attributes, leaving only the clean JSON-LD script in the <head>.
Keeps It Fresh: With the “Keep up to date” option, the plugin can automatically regenerate the JSON-LD every time you update a post, ensuring your structured data always reflects your latest content.

Key Features:

Full Page Parsing: Accurately reads Microdata from the entire webpage, not just post content.
Automatic Generation: Automatically creates the initial JSON-LD when you open a published post for the first time.
Manual Control: View and edit the generated JSON-LD directly in a meta box on each post’s edit screen.
Built-in Validator: Get instant feedback on your schema with a built-in validator that checks for common required and recommended properties.
Bulk Rebuild Tool: Process your entire site at once with a batch-processing tool that works through all your posts and pages.
“Set It and Forget It” Mode: Enable the “Keep JSON-LD up to date” option to ensure your structured data remains current.
Clean & Modern UI: A simple, intuitive settings page with toggle switches and tabs makes configuration a breeze.
Homepage WebSite Schema: Automatically generates WebSite JSON-LD for your homepage, complete with a Sitelinks Search Box to improve your site’s search presence.
Dynamic Archive Schema: Automatically constructs lightweight CollectionPage and ItemList JSON-LD schema for Category and Tag pages, matching Google’s exact specifications for list data without slowing down your server.
Knowledge Graph Auto-Linking: Automatically identifies standalone entities (like Local Businesses) and links them to your main Article schema using dynamic @id references for a unified data graph.

This plugin offers a seamless migration path to modernize your site’s SEO and structured data implementation, eliminating the need to edit your content, plugins, or theme files.
