  • A filter* is available to remove or modify each OpenGraph tag. See the code in og_tag function in class-opengraph.php to find the correct filter names.

    A fellow user provided an example of how to use a filter here. https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/1595#issuecomment-119364501

    Yes this code:

    add_filter( ‘wpseo_og_article_published_time’, ‘__return_false’ );
    add_filter( ‘wpseo_og_article_modified_time’, ‘__return_false’ );
    add_filter( ‘wpseo_og_og_updated_time’, ‘__return_false’ );

    worked like a charm, now zero metas on https://www.mercedesdantes.com really thanks for your help!!

    This may be the answer to my problem but where do I add the “filters” ?

    Filters should be placed in your functions.php file.

    I’m wondering if there is a way to only apply a filter to specific posts. I tried using get_the_ID() in my functions.php file and it doesn’t seem to work.
