Yoast Video SEO for WordPress: Schema output

The schema output for our Video SEO plugin builds upon the Yoast SEO schema output, to add additional detail about embedded videos.

For all the post types you've enabled Video SEO for, it will automatically add a videoObject piece when it encounters a video embed on the page that it recognizes.

Core logic​

  • Add a videoObject piece to the graph for each discovered video.
  • Add a video property to the WebPage, containing an array of references-by-ID to each videoObject piece.

Additional scenarios​

On pages which contain an Article​

  • Add a video property to the Article, containing an array of references-by-ID to each videoObject piece.
