Preguntas frecuentes

Does this work with all themes?

Yes. The plugin uses standard WordPress hooks (the_content filter, get_header/get_footer) so it is compatible with any properly coded theme.

Can I disable the auto-inject and use only the shortcode?

Yes. You can remove the auto-inject in your child theme’s functions.php:
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, array( ‘EEAT_Author_Box’, ‘inject_into_content’ ) );
Then place [eeat_authors] wherever you want it.

Will this conflict with Yoast SEO or Rank Math?

No. The plugin reads but does not overwrite Yoast or Rank Math meta descriptions. The JSON-LD output is a separate <script> block and does not interfere with other SEO plugins.

Does it use Gravatar for avatars?

Yes. Avatars come from get_avatar_url() which uses Gravatar by default. Any avatar plugin (e.g. Simple Local Avatars) will work automatically.
