defining values of extra variables - Support

Hello

Using the action hook from your doc for adding extra variables works fine to create the variable. But how to add the value behind the variable?
…the ‘custom_variable_callback()’ adds only an example for the preview !?

Is there another hook for this? (which I can’t find in the docs).

Thanks for your help
François

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math support today and bringing your concern to our attention.

The callback function should return a string value that the custom variable uses to display a value on the frontend.

Please refer to this example code instead:

add_action( 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements', function(){
	rank_math_register_var_replacement(
	   'shortcode_var_name', [
	   'name'        => esc_html__( 'Author name', 'rank-math' ),
	   'description' => esc_html__( 'Author description', 'rank-math' ),
	   'variable'    => 'shortcode_var_name', /* the actual variable: %shortcode_var_name% */
	   'example'     => shortcode_var_name_call_back(),
	   ],
	   'shortcode_var_name_call_back'
   );
});
function shortcode_var_name_call_back(){
	return "THE VALUE HERE...";
}

Hope that helps. Looking forward to helping you with this one.
