What it does well
Where it falls short
SchemaSense provides a straightforward solution for generating FAQ schema markup, making it a useful tool for improving search visibility. However, its limited schema type support may restrict some users.
Fabio Biocchetti's own description of SchemaSense, lightly tidied.
SchemaSense automatically scans your WordPress posts and pages to identify question and answer pairs, then generates proper FAQ schema markup (FAQPage JSON-LD). This structured data helps AI systems and Large Language Models (LLMs) better understand and surface your content in AI-generated responses, while also improving search engine visibility (SEO) with rich snippets in search results.
The plugin also optionally formats existing FAQ blocks as minimalistic accordions (collapsible/expandable), providing an improved user experience for visitors browsing your Q&A content.
The plugin uses multiple detection strategies:
1. FAQ Section Detection (standard HTML – works with all editors/builders)
* Looks for headings containing FAQ keywords (e.g., “FAQ”, “Frequently Asked Questions”, “Common Questions”)
* Scans headings and paragraphs within that section for Q&A pairs
* Works with Classic Editor, Gutenberg, and all page builders
2. HTML5 Details/Summary Detection (modern page builders)
* Detects accordion widgets using <details> and <summary> elements
* Commonly used by Elementor, Beaver Builder, and other modern page builders
3. Gutenberg Block Detection
* Native support for WordPress blocks
* Parses block structure directly for optimal accuracy
Currently, the plugin supports FAQ (FAQPage) schema only. It generates JSON-LD structured data with the @type: "FAQPage" format, which includes Question and Answer entities. Support for additional schema types (HowTo, Recipe, Product, etc.) may be added in future versions.
Yes! The plugin supports both Classic Editor and Gutenberg (Block Editor). It can parse both Gutenberg blocks and HTML content.
The plugin uses intelligent pattern detection with strict scoping to avoid false positives:
FAQ Section Detection:
* Looks for headings containing FAQ keywords (e.g., “FAQ”, “FAQs”, “Frequently Asked Questions”, “Common Questions”)
* Supports 15+ languages with multilingual FAQ heading recognition
* Once an FAQ section is detected, the plugin scans content within that section only
