    Hello,

    I’m trying to override in my functions.php your metadesc function in this file wp-content/plugins/seo-by-rank-math/includes/frontend/class-head.php but it’s not working. Is there a documentation on how to do it ?

    I also tried to remove your action to create mine with the behavior I want but it’s not working either : remove_action(‘rank_math/head’, ‘metadesc’);

    Thank you for your help !

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with overriding the metadesc function. Unfortunately, the specific documentation for overriding that function in class-head.php is not provided in the context we have. However, you can try using the following approach to remove the default action and add your custom function:

    1. Remove the existing action: Make sure you are using the correct priority when removing the action. The default priority is usually 10, so you might want to specify that:

      remove_action('rank_math/head', 'metadesc', 10);
    2. Add your custom function: After removing the action, you can add your own function to generate the meta description:

      add_action('rank_math/head', 'your_custom_metadesc_function', 10);
      function your_custom_metadesc_function() {
         // Your custom meta description logic here
      }
