Hi there,
Jack from OpenThinking here!

You're getting that type of error because since January 21, 2020 Google only supports schema.org sunsetting support for data-vocabulary. Your theme is perhaps outdated and therefore the code isn't updated with current standards.

Structured data is a special code on your website, so, basically, you just need to update the breadcrumb template on your website to fix the “data-vocabulary.org schema deprecated” error. 

 

Since I do not have access to your Shop's code, I can only show an example of how your breadcrumbs code should look like in schema.org:

 

 

<ul id="breadcrumblist" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/BreadcrumbList">
	<li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ListItem">
		<a itemprop="item" href="https://openthinking.net/">
			<span itemprop="name">Home</span>
		</a>
			<meta itemprop="position" content="1" />
	</li>

	<li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ListItem">
		<a itemprop="item" href="https://openthinking.net/shopify-themes/">
			<span itemprop="name">Themes</span>
		</a>
		<meta itemprop="position" content="2" />
	</li>

	<li itemprop="itemListElement" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ListItem">
		<a itemprop="item" href="https://openthinking.net/theme/bullet">
			<span itemprop="name">Bullet theme</span>
		</a>
		<meta itemprop="position" content="3" />
	</li>
</ul>



let me know if this works for your. If yes; accept my answer and give me thumbs up! Thank you.
