    I am creating a TechArticle schema for certain types of posts and I have found that when I want to modify the schema output using Schema Types -> Modify Schema Output, I can’t choose the “sameAs” option using the drop-down list, as it doesn’t exist.

    I would like to add two or more links to reference Wikipedia and Wikidata, but I have no way to do it using the plugin interface. Is it possible to achieve this in some other way?

    I hope you can help with this.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,

    Thank you for adding it to the list of problems. I hope your team will be able to solve it soon, as it would be a great help.

    I have solved it for now by adding:

    In /output/service.php I added

    if(isset($custom_fields['saswp_tech_article_same_as'])){
    $input1['SameAs'] = $custom_fields['saswp_tech_article_same_as'];
    }

    to

    case 'TechArticle':

    And in /core/array-list/schema-properties.php I added

    if(isset($custom_fields['saswp_tech_article_same_as'])){
    $input1['SameAs'] = $custom_fields['saswp_tech_article_same_as'];
    }

    to

    case 'TechArticle': as well.

    The only problem with this solution is that I will lose it if I update the plugin. Do you think there is a way to apply this patch using an external file?

    Thanks!
