Cannot remove comments from schema after update - Support

Hi,

I have an issue again with all the comments appearing in the schema in the home page: https://thepoorswiss.com

Before, I was able to use this workaround:

add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld/blog_enabled', '__return_false' );

I found that in this support ticket:
https://support.rankmath.com/ticket/how-to-remove-comments-in-the-schema-for-the-homepage/
But I cannot post again in it since it’s closed.

What can I do to disable the Blog schema again in the last version of rank Math

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

Could you please try the following code:

/**
 * Filter: Remove/modify schema data.
 *
 * @param array $return Array of json-ld data.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $json ) {
	if ( is_home() && isset( $data['Comment'] ) ) { 
		unset( $data['Comment'] );
	}
	return $data;
}

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Hi,

Your code is not valid, it makes a PHP crash, it should have been:

add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $json ) {
	if ( is_home() && isset( $data['Comment'] ) ) { 
		unset( $data['Comment'] );
	}
	return $data;
}, 100, 2);

But this does not work either, in fact, it should be:

add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $json ) {
	if ( isset( $data['Blog'] ) ) { 
		foreach ($data['Blog']['blogPost'] as $index => $blogpost) {
			unset ( $data['Blog']['blogPost'][$index]['comment'] );
		}
		
	}
	return $data;
}, 100, 2);

This effectively removes all the comments.

But finally, I settled on:

add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $json ) {
	if ( isset( $data['Blog'] ) ) { 
		unset ($data['Blog']['blogPost']);
	}
	return $data;
}, 100, 2);

I simply do not like the verbosity of the blogPost part of the schema.

Thanks for trying to help me!
