It works, thanks :)

Thanks :)

Thanks!

I found that I can use this for multiple post types as well. just pass an array as the second argument:

function my_remove_wp_seo_meta_box() {
	remove_meta_box('wpseo_meta', ["Post_Type_1","Post_Type_2"], 'normal');
}
add_action('add_meta_boxes', 'my_remove_wp_seo_meta_box', 100);

I found the answer without coding

If you'd also like to remove the "Internal Linking" seo box below, use this:

remove_meta_box('yoast_internal_linking', 'your_post_type_here', 'normal');

Thanks!

Thanks!

This hides it everywhere, not just for a specific custom post type.

It is possible to disable Yoast granularly now, also for custom post types.
