Introduction

Easy Form Builder automatically outputs JSON-LD structured data to help search engines understand form-related content.
However, the plugin also provides an official filter that allows users to disable this structured data output when needed.

This article explains:

• What the Easy Form Builder JSON-LD schema is
• How the efb_schema_ld_enabled filter works
• How to disable JSON-LD safely using functions.php
• How to add the code via the WordPress dashboard

No plugin files are modified, and the method follows WordPress best practices.

The Code Used

/**
 * Disable Easy Form Builder JSON-LD structured data
 * Add to functions.php or custom plugin
 */
add_filter( 'efb_schema_ld_enabled', '__return_false' );

What Is JSON-LD in Easy Form Builder?

JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) is a structured data format placed in the page source to describe elements such as forms, software, or interactions in a machine-readable way.

Easy Form Builder outputs JSON-LD automatically, but allows full control via filters.

How the Filter Works

add_filter( 'efb_schema_ld_enabled', '__return_false' );

• efb_schema_ld_enabled → internal plugin filter
• __return_false → disables schema output
• Executed before JSON-LD is printed

Result: Easy Form Builder skips generating structured data.
