Hello,
I apologize for the issue you are facing with displaying the latest news articles on SEO descriptions. The format you are currently using, %excerpt_only%, will strictly use the Post Excerpt you set for the post. If you do not set a Post Excerpt, Rank Math will not generate one from your content.
To display the latest news articles similar to the example you provided, you can set a custom meta description for the post. This will give you more control over the description and allow you to optimize it for users and search engines alike.
Here is how you can set a custom meta description in Rank Math:
- In the post editing screen, click the Rank Math icon.
- In the General tab of the Rank Math metabox, click Edit Snippet.
- Enter your custom meta description in the Description field.
You can enter the latest news articles manually in the Description field to achieve the desired result.
If you need further assistance or have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thank you for reaching out.
Best regards.
