Background of the issue:
I am trying to ensure that the Yoast Author Schema URLs on our author pages always display the current domain for the DE website. We have many author pages, and I have a scrape that shows the Yoast author page URLs via the Schema markup: hidden link.

Symptoms:
The Yoast Author Schema links are displayed with different URLs on the DE version, sometimes showing .DE, .AT, or .NL domains.

Questions:
Can you help me to display the URLs always in the current domain?

Hello there,

Our 2nd tier suggested the following workaround, so can you try to add the following in theme functions.php file and see if it helps.

function modify_wpseo_schema_graph( $data ) {
	if ( empty( $data ) || ! is_array( $data ) ) {
		return $data;
	}

	foreach ( $data as &$schema_piece ) {
		// Check if the schema type is ProfilePage
		//if ( isset( $schema_piece['@type'] ) && $schema_piece['@type'] === 'ProfilePage' ) {
		// Update the URL
		if ( isset( $schema_piece['url'] ) ) {
			$schema_piece['url'] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece['url'] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["@id"] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["@id"] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece["@id"] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["primaryImageOfPage"]["@id"] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["primaryImageOfPage"]["@id"] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece["primaryImageOfPage"]["@id"] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["image"]["@id"] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["image"]["@id"] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink',$schema_piece["image"]["@id"] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["breadcrumb"]["@id"] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["breadcrumb"]["@id"] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece["breadcrumb"]["@id"] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["potentialAction"][0]["target"][0] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["potentialAction"][0]["target"][0] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece["potentialAction"][0]["target"][0] );
		}
		if ( isset( $schema_piece["mainEntityOfPage"]["@id"] ) ) {
			$schema_piece["mainEntityOfPage"]["@id"] = apply_filters( 'wpml_permalink', $schema_piece["mainEntityOfPage"]["@id"] );
		}
		//	}
	}

	return $data;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_schema_graph', 'modify_wpseo_schema_graph', 10, 1 );

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks
