Single Product Meta Description – Template created

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

You mentioned that you are using the PRO version and it seems you have created this ticket using your Free Rank Math account. Can you please forward the email address you used to purchase the subscription so we can verify it first?

To address your issue: This is the order we follow to generate meta descriptions for WooCommerce products or product categories for that matter:

1. Content from SEO Description field
If that is missing, then:

2. WooCommerce Excerpt or Product Short Description
If that is missing, then:

3. Template From General Settings in WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Products
If that is missing, then:

4. Auto-generated Content from the product page.

However, if you wanted to force the use of the description you have set in Global product settings (Rank math > Titles & meta > Products > Single Product Description), please add the following filter to your active theme’s functions.php file:

/**
 * Use the Description from Global Setting, if the description is missing in the Post metabox
 */
add_action( 'rank_math/frontend/description', function( $description ) {
 global $post;
 $desc = RankMath\Post::get_meta( 'description', $post->ID );

 if ( is_product()) {
 $desc = RankMath\Helper::get_settings( "titles.pt_{$post->post_type}_description" );
 if ( $desc ) {
 return RankMath\Helper::replace_vars( $desc, $post );
 }
 }

 return $description;
});

Please note that the filter may not be visible while editing the products as it only works when your products load in a browser. Once done, clear your website’s cache and check the published product meta description via the page’s source code.

I hope that helps.

Thank you.
