Hello,

If you want to have a better SEO score :

1. You have to set the **alt** value of your image to the name of your product, so you'll have to name every product's images as your product in you product page(the alt value will be the name of your product's image).

2. In the next release of Hikashop you'll have the "**Hikashop productTag**" plugin, wich will allow you to have a better SEO score and a better "schema" for your product page (You can have a look at [ this](http://schema.org/Product) if you want more information about schemas).

Hi there,

On my shop I have various W3C errors, some include the following below. Are these known errors and is this something I can amend or not?

Hi,

This error is coming from the fact they are specification for HTML5, so you have 3 choice :

1. Use an HTML5 template
2. Keep this error which are not that important
3. Don't use this plugin.

Hope this will help you ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)").

Hi Mohamed,

When you say 'dont use this plugin', are you talkign about Hikashop in general?
Or are these errors as a result of a specific plugin which I can disable? If so, which plugin is this?? ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)")

He is talking about the schema.org product plugin which adds these attributes to your product pages according to the specifications here [ schema.org/](http://schema.org/)

Thanks Nicolas,

Sorry if this is a silly question, but what is the specific name of this plugin?
I have searched for the plugin using the word 'schema' but this plugin is obviously called something else.

If you can let me know the plugin name, I can see if I can disable it without causing any issues.

Thanks once again

Many thanks Nicolas.
Can I ask your advise - If I do not have an html5 template, would I be better just disabling this plugin so I can have an error free page?

I already have the same information which is in the shop, on other pages on my websites (in my Joomla articles).

These w3c errors are not relevant.
You can ignore them.
If you don't want them though there is only the two solutions proposed: disable the plugin or use a HTML5 template. I can't decide for you but in your case I would probably keep the errors and switch to a HTML5 template later on, when updating joomla to 3.5 for example.
