Hi,
I am planning of creating a frontend post submission form for users to be able to post articles. In the form, I have the title, featured image, description, categories, excerpt, tags.
I would also like to add the fields SEO title, Meta description, alt img for the featured image and connect them to Yoast plugin so that users can provide even these details while submitting the form. How can I achieve this.
2) Can you please let me know how I can add the excerpt and tags for the form so that users can add them.
Hi,
1. Unfortunately, I do not know of a solution for this in our theme. To add the fields SEO title, Meta description, alt img for the featured image and connect them to Yoast plugin you’ll need a custom implementation. Unfortuantely this is not covered by the support.
Here is an article that may help you – https://yoast.com/help/find-custom-field-name/
2. To display the tags use the element and set the ‘post_tag’ https://i.imgur.com/1Zu3sPK.png (can be used for any taxonomy).
Unfortunately for the excerpt, there is no element in the theme that can be used to insert the excerpt from the frontend. Here, I think that you can use a custom field from acf to set the text for the excerpt (this can be displayed in a module made using the module builder).
Thank you!
