I still don't understand why the villagers will not breed. I put a villager in a blockhouse (3 houses one on the other and another house near the top one on a side), gave him enough food,traded with him,and still he has not entered love mode. Then,I spawned another villager near him,and still he has not entered love mode. I even quited and reloaded world. Still he has not.
Notes: I play Minecraft 1.8.7,I looked up on the wiki,but I did not succeded and I do not use mods on 1.8.7.

Edit: I have already used the multiple doors trick,by adding 2 doors to the building.

    Villager breeding is an incredibly slow and tedious process - they don't enter breeding mode simply because they've fulfilled all of the criteria. Once the villager meet the requirements to enter Mating mode, they will occasionally and at random enter it. It's an infrequent occurrence at best, and then when you consider that two villagers have to do it simultaneously? Well, that's why the other questions on this topic indicate that it's not a fast process.. There's a saying: "A watched kettle never boils", and it's appropriate here. Go do something else while you wait... – JonK Jul 15 '15 at 18:05
  • how long you waited for? – Skye Jul 15 '15 at 18:05
  • I believe when I last did it, it took around 5 in-game days before they lucked out and entered Mating mode at the same time. It does speed up the bigger the village gets though. – JonK Jul 15 '15 at 18:07
  • I've read (not sure if it's still true) that adding doors (how the game measures the size of the village) will speed up the process. I made a bunch of 3x3 buildings with roofs, and doors on every side -- maybe 12-15 of them close to the existing prefab village buildings, and within a couple hours, they were doing the needful. Edit: Derp -- it was the wiki where I read that.. hah.. you just didn't mention doors in your post. Try adding a bunch and see if that helps. – Tim S. Jul 15 '15 at 18:58
  • I actually added 2 more doors before. Yeah, I did not posted it,but it is actually a cheat (or a player-advantage bug) and I do not want to cheat. (I will edit the post) @TimS. – John Jul 15 '15 at 19:07

    Personally I wouldn't consider it a cheat, especially if you make entire buildings. The game mechanics seemed to be designed so that villagers will never overpopulate a village. So, in order to make the villagers reproduce, you have to give them more space to "live". – Tim S. Jul 15 '15 at 19:27
  • Unarybit has an excellent video on villager breeding found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8we5776o0E . In the video description there is also a world download with a lot of practical information on why breeding might not work for you. It deals with the number of doors, but what counts a village and what doesn't. – Thorsal Jul 24 '15 at 14:46
  • Well,adding more doors is not really a cheat,to some extent. I saw youtubers with houses mostly of doors.@TimS. – John Jul 24 '15 at 22:52

The problem

Why the villager don't breed? It depends on how many door you placed, how many villager and how long do you wait.

Solution

Naturally, it will start breeding soon.
If you couldn't wait much longer, add more door and more villager to the house.

Notes

  • You can only see the love particle when you set the particle to all in Video Option.
  • In 1.8 or higher, To breed farmer, you will need them to plant and harvest crops a few time.
