BreadcrumbList: Clarify position and how it interacts with itemListOrder #333
Description
http://schema.org/BreadcrumbList
http://schema.org/itemListElement
For http://schema.org/BreadcrumbList, the example has an itemListElement with two ListItems. They each have a position but it's not clear what it means.
For example, what do these code examples mean?
The current code example:
{
"@type": "BreadcrumbList",
"itemListElement":
[
{
"@type": "ListItem",
"position": 1,
"item":
{
"@id": "https://example.com/dresses",
"name": "Dresses"
}
},
{
"@type": "ListItem",
"position": 2,
"item":
{
"@id": "https://example.com/dresses/real",
"name": "Real Dresses"
}
}
]
}
With an extra hint about the order:
{
"@type": "BreadcrumbList",
"itemListOrder": "ItemListOrderDescending",
"itemListElement":
[
{
"@type": "ListItem",
"position": 1,
"item":
{
"@id": "https://example.com/dresses",
"name": "Dresses"
}
},
{
"@type": "ListItem",
"position": 2,
"item":
{
"@id": "https://example.com/dresses/real",
"name": "Real Dresses"
}
}
]
}
And should the itemListOrder be ItemListOrderDescending (going deeper into the leaf structure of a site) or ItemListOrderAscending (meaning???) for breadcrumbs?
