I’m looking to markup our events so the data is structured and easier for google, etc. to be able to interpret. Anyone have a working example they could share? Thanks!

Have you used Google’s Structured Data Markup Tool?
Here’s an example for one of your events. Once you’ve highlighted the appropriate areas it will give you a strucutred format as an example.

Thanks @Kfawcett! So, this just goes in the header, I assume?
Yes, sir – see highlighted below. More details are also available here: Schema-Markup für auf Google beworbene Veranstaltungen | Google Search Central | Dokumentation | Google for Developers

Also make sure to add all required fields like “location”. I couldn’t find that on the page, but if you read the docs about events, it’s required.
Yeah, will do. We don’t have physical locations so will add something like “online” or “meet over webcam.” Thanks again.
Unfortunately, Bubble’s header section only allows for a limited set of logic and queries (I suspect for page load performance reasons) and, as such, there’s no way to hide this script for private events that we don’t want to be displayed publicly.
Yes. you just need a script in the header to implement this. I have it implemented for a Recipe Structured data schema.
For private events, you would anyways have some form of restrictions on who can see the event details, and if so, my guess is, it wouldn’t make much of a difference if there is a schema markup or not. You could just have it.
@paritosh.mehta19, we often handle private events by enabling anyone to register for them who has the link (which makes it easy for other organizers to invite people however they want). This is the same way most event sites handle it. As such, we don’t want the link to be published publicly by Google.
Looks like it’s okay to post it in the body so I’ll probably put it towards the bottom of the page in an HTML element.

Thanks for your help.
That should work. Moreover, you could put the HTML in a group that is loaded only when its a public event. This way you wouldn’t load it for a private event.

@sridharan.s might want to validate that Google can see it here: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/

I picked this project back up today and can’t get google to be able to read the content with the html element. Additionally, this same content isn’t visible when I click “view source.” Any idea what could be going on?
Bubble hides the HTML in JS so it’s a little difficult to view using “view source”. You could do “inspect element” instead.
This shouldn’t cause issues with Google’s crawlers.
What do you mean by HTML element?
I’m looking to add the schema.org markup to the body of a page. It doesn’t seem like google can read it when I post that in an HTML element like so:
Do you have the CSS Tools plugin? How about trying an “Add/Edit Head Tags” action on Page load.

Will give that a shot. Great idea!
