OG:Title to display posts category

Hi wtoalabi,

There’s a filter for that ??
(Hope you used a filter for the og:description ‘hack’ as well)

Just add something along the lines of the below to your (child-)theme’s functions.php file:

function my_og_title( $title ) {
	// Do what you want to the $title, like:
	// Retrieve the category and add it
	// $title = $title . ' - ' . $category
	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_opengraph_title', 'my_og_title' );

Oh and in case you didn’t know: the filter for the og:description tag is called wpseo_opengraph_desc.

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much Juliete!
Well, I wouldnt call what I did with the “description” tag a hack..lol
I just added this to the Posts Type inside Titles & Metas: %%title%% %%page%% %%sep%% %%category%%.
Now, when I did the same for the title, it shows just the post name and the site name..like this:
New Post – Site Name
Then I tried to follow your codes above..same thing.
Am glad there is a code to even think about…it gives me more assurance that this is possible.
Thanks so much for your help!!!

Hi Wale,

Definitely not a hack ??

And the code I gave you above is not complete – it currently only receives the title and returns it-. I put it there to give you an idea of how to change the title. That’s the part you’ll need to program yourself. So in effect, it’s just a little code framework to fill in.

I’m sure you can figure it out ??

Juliette

Yeah right…I cant even figure the } function
if it works right past me…lol
I cant do this…but I expected the wp seo admin configurations to handle it…since it cant..well, am here!
You’ve gat to help PLEASE!!!!
Thanks.
with Cheers…

You’ve gat to help PLEASE!!!!

ahum… everyone here who makes the effort to reply to questions is a volunteer….

Either learn how to do it or may be hire someone ?

Well, the weirdest thing seem to be that all I needed to do was to upgrade both Yoast and Jetpack!
Og:titles are now being pulled from the parameters I set in Yoast!
Simple…Amazing
But thanks for your offer of help so far…am so grateful!!!
Now, I can breathe easy.
Cheers,
‘Wale
