Locale inconsistency

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with the locale settings on your website. It seems that Rank Math is not reflecting the correct locale of de_AT (German – Austria) and is instead using de_DE (German – Germany).

The og:locale tag in Rank Math is automatically generated based on the language selected in your WordPress General Settings. If your desired language is not being reflected correctly, it may be due to a limitation in how Rank Math fetches the locale from WordPress.

To address this, you can manually set the og:locale tag using a filter in your theme’s functions.php file. Here’s how you can do it:

add_filter( "rank_math/opengraph/facebook/og_locale", function( $content ) {
    return 'de_AT'; // Set your desired locale here
});

This code snippet will ensure that the og:locale tag uses de_AT instead of the default value.

If you need further assistance or if this does not resolve the issue, we recommend replying to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will take over and provide more detailed help.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope this helps!
