Rate My Post lets you select Schema type directly in the post editor. You can choose whichever Schema type of each post or custom rating widget. All schema types support required as well as optional schema fields according to the Google guidelines, which means no more warnings in the Google structured data testing tool 🙂
Google displays aggregate rating-rich snippets for the following schema types: Product, Book, Course, CreativeWorkSeason, CreativeWorkSeries, Episode, Game, LocalBusiness, MediaObject, Movie, MusicPlaylist, MusicRecording, Organization, Recipe, HowTo, SoftwareApplication, and Event.
