  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    It is possible to set a custom meta description for each of your posts by using the following code snippet on your theme’s functions.php file:

    /**
     * Allow changing the meta description sentence from within the theme.
     *
     * @param string $description The description sentence.
     */
    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/description', function( $description ) {
    	return $description;
    });

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Inserted at the end on functions.php file. Does not work(

    Hello,

    Just to confirm, what you want to do is to remove the count of characters in the Rank Math meta description field? So you can enter more than 160 characters.

    Looking forward to help you.

    1. I have a text type meta box.
    2. In the setting of metadata rank mathematics, I have the output of this metapole in the description of one post.
    3. After creating the page, the description length is cut off in the code to 160 characters.
    4. I need to remove this restriction.
    5. I have elementor pro and a hello theme.

    Hello,

    If you are using a custom meta description, Rank Math will not trim them by default.

    Please check this screencast where it shows that Rank Math is printing ALL the characters I entered in the meta description field:

    Hello,

    You didn’t add your website URL to the Sensitive Data section so we can’t log in there. Could you check it?

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    It looks like the description are automatically generated. If you would like the text to be shown in full then you will need to enter a manual description on the Rank Math metabox as shown below:
