## Code

```php
// Page slug => schema.org WebPage type.
$wpide_page_types = array(
    'about'   => 'AboutPage',
    'contact' => 'ContactPage',
);

add_filter( 'wpseo_schema_webpage_type', function ( $type ) use ( $wpide_page_types ) {
    if ( ! is_page() ) {
        return $type;
    }

    $slug = get_post_field( 'post_name', get_queried_object_id() );

    if ( isset( $wpide_page_types[ $slug ] ) ) {
        // Keep WebPage alongside the subtype so Yoast's other pieces still match.
        return array( 'WebPage', $wpide_page_types[ $slug ] );
    }

    return $type;
} );
```

## Notes

Map your own page slugs to schema.org WebPage subtypes such as FAQPage, CollectionPage or CheckoutPage.
