Examples

Below is an example of removing the commentCount field from the Post type. First the comment count can be seen on the Post type in the below GraphiQL example:

Now we can use the deregister_graphql_field function to remove this field from the Post type.

add_action( 'graphql_register_types', 'example_extend_wpgraphql_schema' );

function example_extend_wpgraphql_schema($type_registry) {
	deregister_graphql_field( 'Post', 'commentCount' );
}

Now this field is no longer available to be queried and results in a GraphQL error.
