YARS Schemas and Rank Math

    Hello Rank Math team.
    I come to you again hoping to solve a new problem with the rich snipped rating.

    I have switched from the Stellar plugin to YASR (Yet Another Stars Rating) because unfortunately it is not fully adapted to the Google guidelines to show the SERP rating that I received in a previous ticket.

    The plugin works perfectly, google understands and shows the rating, now I find a new problem, YARS applies schemas in my pages like Rank Math and duplicate content is generated and not only this, also the fields of the recipe schema of YARS are not complete like Rank Math is.

    What I want to achieve is to deactivate the YARS schema to be able to implement only the Rank Math for this on the official website they told me that I have to implement the yasr_filter_existing_schema hook but they did not provide me with more information, unfortunately I do not know PHP or where to place this code.

    If you could help me, this would be great as it would get exactly what I need for my website, thank you very much in advance.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us.

    We are extremely sorry but we do not have a solution that we can offer you.

    You can use Rank Math’s Schema and couple that with MyThemeShop’s WP Review Pro’s user ratings option:
    https://mythemeshop.com/wordpress-review

    They both work together great being from the same company.

    Another option we recommend is Stamped.io but that one is also a paid solution.

    As much as we would love to offer customized solution to each and every user we have, it just isn’t possible for a small company like ours with limited resources. We hope you understand.

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

    Hello, thank you very much for the prompt reply.

    I fully understand that there are requests that cannot be fulfilled, don’t worry.

    I have been doing tests and it seems that when there are duplicate schemas but some have content and others do not, google ignores the empty fields and takes the ones that do have content and everything usually works properly.
    So in this way it is no longer necessary to fully satisfy google in its requirements.

    BUT, a new problem arises, when ignoring the fields of the YARS schema, google continues to take the rating and showing it that is perfect, when activating the Rank Math recipe schema it takes the fields that are needed and google suggests that you complete and that is also perfect. But even though I don’t change the “Rating” “Low score” and “High score” values ​​from Rank Math, it includes them and “AggregateRating” conflicts and google stops showing my stars.

    Is there a way to remove these fields from the recipe schema so Rank Math stops including them?

    Hello,

    These fields do not exist when you are using Rank Math.

    But, Google will still look for the aggregateRating and show a warning when it doesn’t exist.

    When you click on the warning in the structured data test, it takes you to the line of code where that warning applies. There you will notice that Rank Math doesn’t add any aggregateRating field.

    https://ibb.co/bs4HLztThese are the fields to which I mean that Rank Math adds and they conflict, despite the fact that it tells me that it is optional and I decide not to change the default values, it is still included in the schema making google not take into account the stars of YARS.
