Yoast sitemap ignores gallery images if themes/builders used

    If you use Divi theme or similar (hundreds of thousands use it), you can see that your gallery images are not detected by Yoast sitemap. It is a very annoing old problem that Yoast ignores for very long time. Strange attitude for SEO plugin that works against SEO … Jetpack sitemap reads gallery images in other themes, why Yoast doesn’t?

    I hope you’ll either give us a copy/paste code for functions.php or just update your plugin and make it work.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,

    There is an issue between Divi and Yoast that results in images not being processed correctly for Divi’s Image and Gallery Modules. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We apologize for the trouble you are experiencing with our plugin. A bug report is currently open with our development team for this issue.

    If you have further information or would like to follow the progress of the report, you can do that here: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/13794

    @stodorovic – one of your contributor coders offers a workaround and he’ll make a proper explanation soon I guess in here – https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/yoast-sitemap-ignores-gallery-images-if-themes-builders-used/

    According to him, a change in both Yoast and Divi should be applied as it’s neither Yoast only or Divi only problem but mutual. Hope you guys to shake hands and give a solution in the next updates of both plugin and builder.
    Thanks!

    Related to sitemaps, I just updated issue 13794 and created PR 13797.

    I’ve found efficient way to deactivate Jetpack photon module (and gallery conversion in Divi) in sitemaps:

    /**
 * Add following filters only for sitemap requests.
 */
add_filter( 'wpseo_build_sitemap_post_type', function( $type ) {

	// Avoid gallery conversion.
	add_filter( 'et_gallery_layout_enable', '__return_false', 20 );

	// Avoid "photonoizing" image URLs.
	add_filter( 'jetpack_photon_skip_for_url', '__return_true' );

	return $type;
} );
