This update removes more code than it adds, because Google stopped support for rel=author. It adds the new json+ld code for search in sitelinks though, so could have some cool results!
Bugfixes
- Removed leftover code for the deleted HTML sitemap functionality.
- Fix a bug where the wrong
$post
info would be used for the metabox, props mgmartel. - Fix the way we replace whitespace to be more compatible with different encoding, props Jrf.
Enhancements
- Implement new sitelinks search box json+ld code. Enabled by default, to disable use the new
disable_wpseo_json_ld_search
filter. To change the URL being put out use thewpseo_json_ld_search_url
filter. - Improved the onboarding tour to be more in line with the current status of the plugin.
- Other:
- Removed all code to do with
rel=author
as Google has stopped that "experiment", see this blog post for more info. - i18n
- Updated da_DK, fa_IR, fr_FR, hr, hu_HU, nl_NL, pt_BR and tr_RK
