I want to keep the Enable SEO settings on for the Noindex tag for URL feature, however, enabling this causes open graph tags to be inserted into my site, causing duplicates since I am using another plugin for that.

Is there a way to not have the open graph tags inserted into the code but keep the Enable SEO settings option on so I can keep the noindex tag for URL feature?

Hello, Chris,

Thank you for reaching out to us. In order to provide you with a precise answer to your query, we need to review your SEO plugin. Please provide us with access to your site’s admin panel and FTP, or at the very least, the name of the plugin.

If you are using the Yoast SEO plugin, you simply need to add the following code to the functions.php file of your child theme:
```
// Disable Open Graph tags in Yoast SEO
add_filter('wpseo_opengraph', '__return_false');
```
We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to assisting you further.

Best Regards,
8Theme’s Team

Thank you for your inquiry and for granting us access.

To disable the Open Graph tags in Rank Math, please add the following code to the functions.php file of your child theme:
```
// Remove Open Graph tags generated by Rank Math
add_action('wp_head', function() {
    // Remove Open Graph tags from the header
    remove_action('wp_head', 'rank_math_opengraph_meta', 10);
}, 1);
```
Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for this, is there also a way to do the opposite?

Have the XStore setting on so I can use the noindex tag for URL feature, but not use the XStore Open Graph meta?
