Disable content-type schema:

You can turn off schema for certain content types on your website in a few ways. First, access content type settings. Typically by using your website’s admin panel or dashboard. Find the schema and markup section under settings. This section should allow you to switch schema for each content type. Keep in mind that stopping schema for a type of content takes away its organized information from what search engines show.

– Scroll to “Content Types”.
– Checkboxes for Posts, Pages, Media, etc.
– Uncheck a content type’s checkbox to disable schema.

Clear cache and save changes

You need to save and get rid of the cache if you want changes in a file or webpage to take effect. The system shows the newest information using this method. Save changes to save and use your updates in the file or website. Deleting the cache gets rid of short-lived files and data that can show old or wrong details. Clearing the cache gets rid of old, maybe bad information and allows the system to get and show new stuff. Making changes and cleaning the cache are easy but important steps to show updates correctly and quickly fix problems with stored data.

Turn off the schema for chosen content groups and then click “Save Changes” at the bottom. Make sure your website changes work by clearing the cache.
