<p>This plugin adds the JSON-LD schema.org markup for including the Site Name in Search Results on the homepage.</p>
<p>This new feature was presented on the <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com.es/2015/04/better-presentation-of-urls-in-search.html" rel="nofollow ugc">Official Google Webmaster Central Blog</a> (Thursday, April 16, 2015 ). There is more info on the <a href="https://developers.google.com/structured-data/site-name" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Developers Website</a>.</p>
<p>Use structured data markup on your public website to indicate the preferred name you want Google to display in Search results. You can also provide more than one possible name for your site, and let Google Search algorithms choose between them. Once Google has crawled and indexed the updated page, we can use the provided name in Search results as shown in the screenshot.</p>

<p>If you use <strong>WordPress SEO by Yoast version 1.6 or newer</strong>, you don’t need to use this plugin, as this feature has been included in the version 1.6 update.

<h4>What can I do with this plugin?</h4>
<p>This plugin adds the JSON-LD schema.org markup for including the Site Name in Search Results on the homepage.</p>
<p>After activating the plugin you have to configure the Name you want Google to display in your search results instead of the domain name.</p>
<p>When Google next crawls your page, its indexing algorithms will process the site name specified by your markup and make it eligible to be used in Search results. Note: It can take some time before you see a change to the presentation of your site in Search results. Also, Google’s algorithms might choose not to use the name you provided, or not might choose to show the domain name instead.</p>

<h3>Translating WordPress Plugins</h3>
<p>The steps involved in translating a plugin are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Run a tool over the code to produce a POT file (Portable Object Template), simply a list of all localizable text. Our plugins allready havae this POT file in the /languages/ folder.</li>
<li>Use a plain text editor or a special localization tool to generate a translation for each piece of text. This produces a PO file (Portable Object). The only difference between a POT and PO file is that the PO file contains translations.</li>
<li>Compile the PO file to produce a MO file (Machine Object), which can then be used in the theme or plugin.</li>
</ol>
<p>In order to translate a plugin you will need a special software tool like <a href="http://www.poedit.net/" rel="nofollow ugc">poEdit</a>, which is a cross-platform graphical tool that is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.</p>
<p>The naming of your PO and MO files is very important and must match the desired locale. The naming convention is: <code>language_COUNTRY.po</code> and plugins have an additional naming convention whereby the plugin name is added to the filename: <code>pluginname-fr_FR.po</code></p>
<p>That is, the plugin name name must be the language code followed by an underscore, followed by a code for the country (in uppercase). If the encoding of the file is not UTF-8 then the encoding must be specified.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>en_US – US English</li>
<li>en_UK – UK English</li>
<li>es_ES – Spanish from Spain</li>
<li>fr_FR – French from France</li>
<li>zh_CN – Simplified Chinese</li>
</ul>
<p>A list of language codes can be found <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>, and country codes can be found <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>. A full list of encoding names can also be found at <a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets" rel="nofollow ugc">IANA</a>.</p>
