Hey @gretablue
Hope you are doing well!
if you already have the open graph meta fields, you can deactivate the options “Add Rich Pins for Products” and “Add Rich Pins for Posts” on the Settings tab on “Marketing > Pinterest”. This way the meta fields won’t be added to your site.
To avoid issues on your live site, I suggest testing first on a staging site. (with this plugin or with other plugins).
Let me know if that helps.
Best,
Christian
Thanks for the tip. What could be the issues on my live site? I can’t use a staging site as my host charges an arm and a leg for it.
Hey @gretablue,
We are checking right now with the development team. My first theory is that they are only duplicated because both plugins are creating them, but I don’t know what other effect might this leads to.
are there any special settings on the plugin RankMath that you are using?
Best,
Christian
Hey @gretablue
I just analyzed the RankMath and Pinterest Meta tags:
Pinterest Meta:
meta property=”og:url” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:site_name” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:title” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:type” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:image” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”product:price:currency” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”product:price:amount” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:price:standard_amount”
meta property=”og:description” Also created by RankMath
meta property=”og:availability” Also created by RankMath
Basically, the only one that RankMath does not create is: meta property="og:price:standard_amount" but is not relevant, it is the original price when they have a sales price.
By deactivating the settings “Add Rich Pins for Products” and “Add Rich Pins for Posts” both plugins can be activated without a problem.
Let me know if that helps.
Best,
Christian
I’ve implemented your suggested fix and it looks good so far, thank you. Let’s hope I can get around the rejections by Pinterest, and actually put the plugin to use!
