Hi oritsh,
It looks like the error for freenail.co.il didn’t come through in your reply. Please make a screenshot of the error and upload it to your Media Library, so I can take a look.
Thanks!

Hi oritsh,
Thanks for the screenshots. The error message indicates Google is looking for certain components in your site’s code, which aren’t included.
In this case, it is a specific class (.entry-title) in the HTML for your post titles. These errors don’t indicate there is anything wrong with your site and removing them would require a change to your theme — we do not provide access to a theme’s code on WordPress.com.
I hope this helps clarify what you are seeing.

It’s indicate that google consider it as something wrong . and if i need my sites to be “google friendly” – for seo aspects , it’s a problem.
If google is looking for these components in my site’s code,i need it to be there.
You wrote “removing them would require a change to your theme” – but it is not one theme, as i wrote these errors appear with all of my sites. -
Hi oritsh,

I’ve checked a number of sites in your account and they all use retired themes — Responsive, Chunk, Fiore to name a few.
The information Google Search Console is looking for is included in the theme files. With older (retired) themes like Responsive, .post-title class is used instead of .entry-title.
While updates are deployed for WordPress.com themes, they become outdated over time and this is the point at which they are retired. Retired themes are no longer updated and for this reason, we will not be making changes to include the .entry-title class.
Google’s specifications have changed since the older themes were created so I recommend looking at some of the newer themes available in our showcase:
Modern themes do include the information Google Search Console is looking for — which is one of the reasons Responsive has been retired.

Thank you gemmacevans for your clear explanation.
(I think in case like this wp.com should let us know that a themes i use is retired. and for what reason .)
is there any way to change the CSS file of this themes so it will include the .entry-title ?

You’re welcome! The .entry-title class can’t be added using CSS and this change can only be made from within the theme files.

You can see whether a theme is retired by clicking on the “Info” icon at the top of the themes page:

Thank you gemmacevans
i took these themes long time ago. if after a while you decided to retire it – please let us know. as you let us know other changes and updates . -
Hi oritsh,
Sure, I understand. If you need help choosing a newer theme, just let me know :)
