Hello,
Thank you for contacting rank Math today.
Upon checking your pages linked below, I have just noticed that there are several instances of video schema added to your page. This means that there is another plugin or theme adding these video schema. If they belong to different videos then that is okay, but if they belong to the same video, then that appears as duplicates.
As for the Rank Math video schema showing these errors, I would recommend that you check if you have these fields fulfilled in your schema. That way you will be able to resolve this issue. Thus please check the name and description fields they should have some content or use variables to fetch data from the actual post.
We are looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
The theme IS outputting video schema for all videos, so I just changed the schema type for posts from Video to Article/Blog Post. That should remedy the duplication, correct?
But now my question is regarding this: after making that change, I go to a post and the schema type still shows as Video. How do I get that changed throughout the site without having to manually change each post one by one?
Hello,
I have inspected the URL you have mentioned inside the sensitive data section and those URLs seems to have no longer duplicate video schema.
You can change the default schema type by heading over to Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Post type
Since you have already done that, Could you please share the affected URL?
Thank you, and looking forward to your update.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Thanks for checking that. Those original URLs have all been manually changed and I have been manually changing post by post from Video to Article schema. Is there some way to bulk change all of the posts to Article? I’ve changed it in the Rank Math settings for Posts, but all posts (except the ones I’ve changed) are still showing as Video schema. I’ve added an example URL to the sensitive data section.
Hello,
Setting the Schema Type in Rank Math > Titles & Meta only sets it to be the default schema, and only affects your new posts/pages. For your old/published posts, you will need to change them individually upon editing.
However, with Rank Math PRO, we have an option to update all your posts’ schema using the bulk edit feature. Here’s a link for your reference:

I hope that helps.
