    Hello everyone. To be honest, this is not a support question per se. Is more of a “help me if you can” one.

    Following this guide I’ve been able to automate the insertion of the site title as focus keyword to a custom post type named podcast, if no focus keyword has been set.

    What I am trying to achieve is to add to the focus keywords also a custom taxonomy I’ve created for poodcast CPT called categorie-podcast.

    I’m using ACF to create both the CPT and the Custom Taxonomies associated to it.

    The code I have right now is


    /**
    * Function to automatically update the RankMath focus keyword of "podcast" cpt with the site title, if no focus keyword is set
    */
    function update_site_title_focus_keywords() {
    $posts = get_posts(array(
    'posts_per_page' => -1,
    'post_type' => 'podcast' // Only for post type "podcast"
    ));

    // Get the site title
    $site_title = get_bloginfo('name');

    foreach ($posts as $p) {
    // Check if Rank Math keyword already exists and only update if it doesn't have it
    $rank_math_keyword = get_post_meta($p->ID, 'rank_math_focus_keyword', true);
    if (!$rank_math_keyword) {
    // Set the focus keyword to the site title
    update_post_meta($p->ID, 'rank_math_focus_keyword', strtolower($site_title));
    }
    }
    }

    add_action('init', 'update_site_title_focus_keywords');

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hello, I understand that you’ve been able to automate the insertion of the site title as the focus keyword for a custom post type named “podcast” using the guide provided. You’re now looking to add a custom taxonomy called “categorie-podcast” to the focus keywords as well.

    To achieve this, you can modify the existing code to include the custom taxonomy. Here’s an example of how you can do this:

    /**
 * Function to automatically update the RankMath focus keyword of "podcast" CPT with the site title and custom taxonomy, if no focus keyword is set
 */
function update_site_title_and_taxonomy_focus_keywords() {
    $posts = get_posts(array(
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'post_type' => 'podcast' // Only for post type "podcast"
    ));

    // Get the site title
    $site_title = get_bloginfo('name');

    foreach ($posts as $p) {
        // Check if Rank Math keyword already exists and only update if it doesn't have it
        $rank_math_keyword = get_post_meta($p->ID, 'rank_math_focus_keyword', true);
        if (!$rank_math_keyword) {
            // Get the custom taxonomy terms
            $terms = get_the_terms($p->ID, 'categorie-podcast');
            $taxonomy_keywords = [];
            if ($terms) {
                foreach ($terms as $term) {
                    $taxonomy_keywords[] = strtolower($term->name);
                }
            }
            // Set the focus keyword to the site title and custom taxonomy terms
            $keywords = array_merge([$site_title], $taxonomy_keywords);
            update_post_meta($p->ID, 'rank_math_focus_keyword', implode(", ", array_unique($keywords)));
        }
    }
}

add_action('init', 'update_site_title_and_taxonomy_focus_keywords');

    This modified code will fetch the custom taxonomy terms associated with each podcast post and add them to the focus keywords along with the site title.

    I hope this helps! If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask.
