Change schema type for specific category

    I am trying to change the schema of the article piece, e.g. change Type to Event. But I don’t need this for all articles, I can only do it from the category “seminar”. Here is my approach:

    add_filter( ‘wpseo_schema_article’, ‘change_article_to_event_if_seminar_category’ );

    function change_article_to_event_if_seminar_category( $data ) {

    if ( has_category( ‘seminar’ ) ) {
    $data[‘@type’] = ‘Event’;
    }

    return $data;
    }

    Hello @selenii,

    Thanks for reaching out about your site’s structured data. Yoast SEO automatically describes your pages using?schema.org.?By default, Yoast SEO describes your?Pages?by using?WebPage?schema, and describes your?Posts?by using?Article?schema?(and?WebPage?schema). For most users, you won’t need to change these default settings (and?setting invalid options might result in errors).

    By overriding the defaults, you may alter your schema markup in ways that don’t make sense or that are incomplete. Unfortunately, we’re unable to review your code implementation as providing development support is outside the scope of our support.

    That is exactly the reason. I would like to change the default “Article”. It works really well. Now I just want the change to only apply to specific posts from the specific category and its subcategory. Is my approach correct?
