Schema snippet and authors

Hello @simplesteps,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math support.

You can change the Display Name in the user profile setting to something else than the username and it will be updated in the Schema. If you want to remove the Person Schema from the site, you can use the following filter:

add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $jsonld ) {
	unset($data['ProfilePage']);
	return $data;
}, 99, 2);

Here is how to add a filter to your site: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

Hello @simplesteps,

It isn’t recommended to remove the author property from the Article Schema. You should change the display name in the user profile if you don’t want to use the username. If you want to remove the author property, you can use the following filter:

add_filter( "rank_math/snippet/rich_snippet_article_entity", function( $entity ) {
        unset($entity['author']);
        return $entity;
});

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
