[Resolved] Disable all of schema.org

[S-Config]

Hello again,

I’m currently going through the source code my site generates and isolating all external references that are not links. The reason for this is I’m looking into getting a TOR address which means I have to be super-careful with not referencing anything outside of my domain name. One which keeps popping up a lot is references to schema.org all over my site.

I did read this article and it helped with just the “CreativeWorks” Schema” but that is all. and doing a grep -rn “//schema.org/” finds that generatepress puts those references all over the place.

Would it be possible to feature request an option to turn on and off schema site-wide? Thanks!

output from grep -rn “//schema.org/:

Hi there,

We’d like to switch from microdata to JSON-LD in the very near future.

For now I’m afraid you’d need to manually edit those files to remove the references.

At least there is something in the works to which I am happy for. I shall keep modifying then until i see the code change in an update down the road. Thank you for everything!

No problem! 🙂
