adding Custom Variable - Support

Resolved

Rank Math free

hi, im using yoast right now and have custom variables with this code in function:

if (defined('WPSEO_VERSION')) {
    wpseo_register_var_replacement('%%en_name%%', 'en_name_replace', 'advanced', 'my title');
}

function en_name_replace($var, $args) {
  $replacement = null;
  if(isset($args->term_id)) {
    $en_name = get_term_meta($args->term_id, '_name_en', true);
    if(!empty($en_name)) {
      $replacement = $en_name;
    }
  }
  return $replacement;
}

i am moving to rank math and i need this variable for title. i found this :

/**
 * Filter to add custom variables
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/vars/replacements', function( $vars ) {
 return $vars;
});

and

/**
 * Action: 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements' - Allows adding extra variables.
 */add_action( 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements', function(){
 rank_math_register_var_replacement(
 'custom_variable_slug',
 [
 'name'        => esc_html__( 'Custom variable name.', 'rank-math' ),
 'description' => esc_html__( 'Custom variable description.', 'rank-math' ),
 'variable'    => 'custom_variable_slug',
 'example'     => 'custom_variable_callback()',
 ],
 'custom_variable_callback()'
 );
});

can someone please help me how to use it?
Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math.

Please see the code below. Let say you want to return create a variable called %post_content% that returns the the_content of the current post. To be able to use the %post_content% you need the code below.
```
/**
 * Action: 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements' - Allows adding extra variables.
* Snippet to register variable that will return all terms in custom taxonomy
 */
add_action( 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements', function(){
	rank_math_register_var_replacement(
	   'post_content',
	   [
	   'name'        => esc_html__( 'name', 'rank-math' ),
	   'description' => esc_html__( 'description', 'rank-math' ),
	   'variable'    => 'post_content',
	   'example'     => post_content_callback(),
	   ],
	   'post_content_callback'
   );
});
function post_content_callback(){
	$content = get_the_content();
	return $content;
}
```
I hope this helps.

Thanks.
