Hi @techaddict,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We usually don’t recommend using multiple SEP plugins because there might be duplicated features or conflicts like the one you described.
We’re not familiar with the features of the Schema plugin, but as an alternative, we recommend using the Yoast Schema API whenever possible to customize or add to the schema data that Yoast SEO generates if you want to ensure compatibility.
We’re actively using the bug tracking on our GitHub repository so your best next step would be to create a new issue for our developers at https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/new. You will need an account to create a new issue. If this is your first bug report, please check out: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/how-to-write-a-good-bug-report/.
Dont you think this is not a proper response?
Site has the plugins live since long. One update everything is messed. I cant now go and change schema in each post.
Seems like Yoast plugin is turning more and more unreliable with time.
Need to shift to alts like Rank Math soon.
Hi,
We hope you understand that the Yoast SEO for WordPress plugin’s schema.org structured data has a guideline and approach as to how it would generate the relevant schema for your website. This is something we’ve developed and made sure that all of the graph pieces are connected and are showing the correct output — https://developer.yoast.com/features/schema/overview/ & https://yoast.com/structured-data-schema-ultimate-guide/
If you were to install and activate other plugins that generate structured data, it could definitely cause issues with the output coming from the Yoast SEO plugin.
It doesn’t mean that the plugin is unreliable. In fact, we want to make sure that if you were to use multiple plugins or custom code along with the structured data from the Yoast SEO plugin, as long as it meets the specification and approach with the core principles, it should work in tandem just fine.
You can learn more about it here — https://developer.yoast.com/features/schema/integration-guidelines/
Setting this to resolved to keep the forum overview.
