JSON-LD not working with meta-tags.templates

[HashandSalt]

As the title says. If you set JSON-LD up in meta-tags.default it comes out on every page. If you want a different schema on a specific page (in my case blog post schema), this block also comes out on every page, despite being set within meta-tags.templates for a specific page template.

Other properties in meta-tags.templates work as expected, seems limited to just JSON-LD.

How can I make this work?

Could you please share just the JSON-LD settings to reproduce this?

[HashandSalt]

Sure, here you go...

// Meta Tags
'pedroborges.meta-tags.default' => function ($page, $site) {

    $contact = $site->index()->find('hire-a-great-digital-marketing-agency');
    $logo = $site->sitelogo()->toFile() ? $site->sitelogo()->toFile()->url() : '';
    $location = $contact->locmap()->toLocation();

    return [
      'json-ld' => [
          'LocalBusiness' => [
              'name' => $contact->businessname()->value(),

I'm not knowledgeable about JSON-LD, I see that it includes both the LocalBusiness and BlogPosting schemas on blog templates. Is that the issue? Should the plugin include only BlogPosting in blog templates?

[HashandSalt]

Yes :)

On every page and BlogPosts, i need the i need the LocalBusiness schema. On BlogPosts ONLY i need BOTH the LocalBusiness and BlogPost Schemas.

The plugin just needs to respect the schemas set in the meta-tags.templates config and not merge them with the default ones. They need to be done only on the template they have been set for.

[pedroborges]

Okay, I asked because it's already working like that on my side. See the image (simplified for testing purposes).

The plugin is including LocalBusiness on all pages and BlogPosting only in the template it's been defined.

[HashandSalt]

Thats odd. For me, it loaded both on the home page. When I went back to the home page, i got a whoops message because it was looking for things that are not on the home. I just uncommented the code and tried again it seems to work. Both schemas were definetly coming out on the home page, i checked.

If i manage to trigger it again, i will post more detail. Probably some weird edge case, or something that your minimal test code is not triggering.

[HashandSalt]

Ok - although im not getting both JSON blocks on the home page anymore, it is sill reading the config for the templates block on the home page and causing a whoops on an image call. It shouldnt be processing this part of the config unless the template matches.
