In Posts, Pages, and custom post types where ratings and reviews have been enabled, the WPSSO Ratings and Reviews add-on includes information in the Schema markup about the review (author name, creation time, excerpt, rating) and the threaded replies / comments for each review.
No templates to modify or update:
The WPSSO Ratings and Reviews add-on automatically and dynamically extends the WordPress comments system without modifying any templates.
Simply activate the plugin to enable the addition of ratings and reviews.
