Is there a way to filter article:author?

    By default the plugin reveals the author URL for articles, but some sites have these disabled for privacy or they are not needed. I tried filtering on opengraph_metadata but it doesn’t appear to contain the article:author data.

    I also tried this:

    
function my_opengraph_metadata( $metadata ) {
    unset( $metadata['article:author'] );
    return $metadata;
}
add_filter( 'opengraph_metadata', 'my_opengraph_metadata' );

    Maybe this is a race condition issue, because your filter might be called too early. Maybe add a lower priority, to be sure to be called later as the default filters:

    add_filter( 'opengraph_metadata', 'my_opengraph_metadata', 1, 20 );

    Thank you, that was it. This worked:

    
function my_opengraph_metadata( $metadata ) {
    unset( $metadata['article:author'] );
    return $metadata;
}
add_filter( 'opengraph_metadata', 'my_opengraph_metadata', 20, 1 );

    Would be a nice one to add to the docs.

    ..but I am glad it works!
