<p>The WooCommerce plugin provides only a single product offer in its Schema markup, even for variable products with different pricing, and includes only minimal product information. The <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/">WPSSO Core plugin</a> replaces the default WooCommerce Schema markup and includes all product variations with complete product details for each offer (ie. product description, images, mpn, sku, gtin, item condition, availability, price, currency, VAT added, shipping delivery times, weight, width, height, length, fluid volume, and more). The <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/">WPSSO Core plugin</a> can also include prices with or without VAT, and if your products have reviews or comments, they are added to the markup as product "reviews" or "comments" respectively.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/">WPSSO Core plugin</a> supports many additional attributes for WooCommerce products, including:</p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Book Author Name</strong></li>
