This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are experiencing issues with translating Yoast SEO Meta Data on user pages, such as author pages.
Solution:
If you're facing this issue, we recommend you try the following steps:
1. Open your theme's
functions.php
file.
2. Add the following code to implement a workaround for translating author titles and descriptions with WPML:
// WPML Workaround for compsupp-7364<br />add_filter('wpseo_title','wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_title', 10, 2 );<br />add_filter('wpseo_opengraph_title','wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_title', 10, 2 );<br />add_filter('wpseo_metadesc','wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_description', 10, 2 );<br />add_filter('wpseo_opengraph_desc','wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_description', 10, 2 );<br /><br />function wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_title($title, $presentation) {<br /> if ( class_exists('Sitepress') && is_author() ) {<br /><br /> $string = $title;<br /> $textdomain = 'Authors';<br /> $string_name = 'wpseo_title_'.$presentation->source['post_author'];<br /><br /> // Apply the translation to the string<br /> $title = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $string , $textdomain, $string_name);<br /> }<br /><br /> return $title;<br />}<br /><br />function wpml_compsupp7364_translate_author_description($title, $presentation) {<br /> if ( class_exists('Sitepress') && is_author() ) {<br /><br /> $string = $title;<br /> $textdomain = 'Authors';<br /> $string_name = 'wpseo_metadesc_'.$presentation->source['post_author'];<br /><br /> // Apply the translation to the string<br /> $title = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $string , $textdomain, $string_name);<br /> }<br /><br /> return $title;<br />}3. Save the changes and ensure the code is correctly added without syntax errors.
