Hi,
the meta description of Yoast not displayed with the theme
so, I tried to run this code
function add_custom_meta_des(){
if(is_tax()):
$yoast_desc = get_term_meta( get_queried_object_id() , '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc', true );
else:
$yoast_desc = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc', true );
endif;
$metadesc_val = wpseo_replace_vars($yoast_desc, $post );
$metadesc_val = apply_filters( 'wpseo_metadesc', $metadesc_val );
if( ! empty( $yoast_desc ) && !is_page('compare') ){ echo '<meta name="description" content="' . $yoast_desc . '" />';}
echo get_term_meta( get_queried_object_id() , '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc', true ) .'cx';
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'add_custom_meta_des', 4 ); But it didn't works !!
Hi there,
Where did you get the code from?
Have you checked with YoastSEO's support?
Does the code work in a twenty series WP default theme?
Hello Leo,
I research and tried to add this code because the meta description of Yoast not displaying be default in GeneratePress although it works with other theme like Publisher, so I don't need to ask Yoas support
Could you help?
What is the meta description field you are referring to? Is this it?

GP would not hide anything that Yoast displays by default.
Have you tried it with a twenty series WP theme?
