I am having a **Missing field ‘location’**  
_Items with this issue are invalid. Invalid items are not eligible for Google Search’s rich results_

All events in my calendar have a location set within the relevant field in Elfsite

This isnt a warning in the code, it is a full blown error. Can something be done about this

Thanks  
Tom

Hi there, @user40360 and welcome to the Community 👋

The locations in your widget are added as **Tags** , which prevents them from being recognized as event venues.

To resolve this, please add your locations using the dedicated **Venue** option and then assign the created venues to your events:
