Our Shopify store is showing "Missing field price" ERRORS on google search console for 216 of our products. But all the price fields have prices. How do we fix this?

Google picks up that info from Rich Snippets.

The price format can be wrong there.

 

It would help the forum users to have a link to your store in order to debug this.

Finally—Add variant descriptions to your products

Thanks for the link.

 

There are several warnings and errors: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool#url=https%3A%2F%2Ftommydocks.com%2Fcollection...

The biggest one is the missing price data on the product offer, that microdata is missing from the offer.

 

Your theme has microdata Rich Snippets. The data is "added" on the theme HTML elements.

This will work but is error prone, each time some change is done to the markup this can break.

 

A better way would be to have the Rich Snippets assigned as JSON-LD.

You can see some examples here: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/product

 

As a quick fix on the error.

In your theme, find this line of code:

<div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">

Can be on the product.liquid template, a product section or even a snippet...

 

Add the price microdata:

<meta itemprop="price" content="{{ product.price | money_without_currency }}">

Should look something like this:

<div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">
  <meta itemprop="price" content="{{ product.price | money_without_currency }}">
  ...

Revalidate using the  https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool

I have same issue.
This issue came from not valid currency price format, go to settings -> genernal then change currency formating to {{ amount_no_decimals_with_comma_separator }}
You can see list options of currency format at https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/currency-formatting#currency-formatting-options
After currency format changed, test your url product with google search tool https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool

Maybe your template code not set microdata schema correctly.
To do these add file microdata-schema.liquid to your snippets code, go to themes -> edit code

Add below code and name as microdata-schema.liquid

Open file theme.liquid and add below code inside tag <head>

I was able to follow right up until the part where you add the part below.  What do you mean to add it inside tag <head>?  Sorry, I literally have no clue about this.  

{% render 'microdata-schema' %}

 I can see the head section:

 

<!doctype html>
<html class="no-js" lang='en'>
<head>
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="xTNYP6BBhmpD7wby9EoUvEDPH2xD4B0IxZyvy-XM5Ik" />
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">

{% if template contains 'collection' and current_tags %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
<link rel="canonical" href="{{ shop.url }}{{ collection.url }}" />
{% else %}
<link rel="canonical" href="{{ canonical_url }}" />
{% endif %}

<title>
{{ page_title }}

Thanks a lot! 🙂
