Updating LocalBusiness Schema using custom function using ACF

Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing. To customize a LocalBusiness schema using theme functions and ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), you can define a new variable to get the value from the ACF field and use it in the Schema Generator. Here’s a general approach:

1. Add Custom Code to Your Theme: You will need to add a filter in your theme’s functions.php file to modify the JSON-LD output for your LocalBusiness schema.

2. Use the rank_math/json_ld Filter: This filter allows you to customize the JSON-LD data that Rank Math generates. Here’s an example of how you can implement this:

   add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld', function( $data, $jsonld ) {
      // Check if you are on a specific location page
      if ( is_singular('rm_locations') ) {
          // Get ACF fields
          $address = get_field('address');
          $phone = get_field('phone');
          $opening_hours = get_field('opening_hours');
   
          // Customize the LocalBusiness schema
          $data['@type'] = 'LocalBusiness';
          $data['address'] = [
              '@type' => 'PostalAddress',
              'streetAddress' => $address,
              'telephone' => $phone,
          ];
          $data['openingHours'] = $opening_hours;
      }
      return $data;
   }, 10, 2 );

3. Dynamic Data: Make sure that the ACF fields (address, phone, opening_hours) are set up correctly in your WordPress admin for each location page. This way, each page will have its unique schema data based on the ACF values.

4. Testing: After implementing the code, test your pages using Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool to ensure that the schema is being generated correctly.
