Unable to automate insert keywords

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with automating the insertion of keywords. It sounds like you’re encountering some challenges with the rank-math.php file in your child theme.

Since you mentioned that there is no rank-math.php file in either your child or parent theme, creating one is indeed the right approach. However, if it brought up errors, it might be due to incorrect code or placement. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set it up correctly:

1. Create the rank-math.php File: If you haven’t already, create a new file named rank-math.php in your child theme directory (/wp-content/themes/your-child-theme/).

2. Add the Code Snippet: Open the newly created rank-math.php file and add the following code snippet:

   /**
   * Function to automatically update the focus keyword with the post title
   */
   function update_focus_keywords() {
      $posts = get_posts(array(
          'posts_per_page' => -1,
          'post_type' => 'product' // Ensure this matches your post type
      ));
      foreach ($posts as $p) {
          update_post_meta($p->ID, 'rank_math_focus_keyword', strtolower(get_the_title($p->ID)));
      }
   }
   add_action('init', 'update_focus_keywords');

3. Save and Test: After adding the code, save the file and check if it works without errors.
