November 19, 2014 at 4:42 pm #21940Hi Stiofan,
I found this script in this forum. This variable can use for yoast
function retrieve_var1_replacement( $var1 ) { $location_terms=geodir_get_current_location_terms(); $city=$location_terms['gd_city']; $region=$location_terms['gd_region']; $country=$location_terms['gd_country']; if(!empty($city)) return $city ; if(!empty($region)) return $region ; if(!empty($country)) return $country ; return ''; } function register_my_plugin_extra_replacements() { wpseo_register_var_replacement( '%%current_location%%', 'retrieve_var1_replacement', 'advanced', 'Use this is for current location' ); } add_action( 'wpseo_register_extra_replacements', 'register_my_plugin_extra_replacements' ); ?>
but result is “quan-tan-binh”, now i want see result is “quận tân bình”. How to fix this. and can you make 1 variables include full location like meta title?
demo here: http://taphoacoho.com/places/vietnam/tphcm/quan-tan-binh/restaurants/
notice: visit location, then back to restaurants category to view current location. I think this maybe a bug need to fix, when 1 visitor visit link above, it mean this visitor also in this location
March 12, 2015 at 7:12 pm #33837Has there been any update on this location based SEO since October?
I discovered that GEO DIRECTORY adds “in [name of city]” to the TITLE of whatever you have on the /location page. Whew!
But the META DESCRIPTION (using Yoast) is the same for no all locations. Adding in a variable such as %%location%% in the Yoast meta description box yields no output.
Thoughts?
March 12, 2015 at 7:44 pm #33844Hi,
now we allow to add a description to each location page.
For Cities
GD >> MultiLocation >> Manage Location >> Edit individuallyFor Regions and Countries
GD >> MultiLocation >> SEO SettingsI’m not sure you can add locations as variable to Yoast. I need to ask to Stiofan for this.
Thx
March 12, 2015 at 9:04 pm #33864Thanks for the reply Paolo.
With Yoast enabled and SEO field data filled in on…
Cities
GD >> MultiLocation >> Manage Location >> Edit individuallyThe site still just displays the meta description from Yoast for the page.
If I disable Yoast, the META DESCRIPTION tag does then work, BUT the “in [name of city]” in the TITLE tag that GD was previously adding disappears.
Ideally like it to work with Yoast and of course having the location in both the title and meta description is essential.
Any thoughts on how I should proceed?

March 12, 2015 at 9:12 pm #33865Scratch that last post. (Can’t delete posts here.)
I found the META DESCRIPTION with Yoast turned on further down.
March 12, 2015 at 9:18 pm #33867awesome, thank you!
March 12, 2015 at 10:43 pm #33893Hi Paolo.
I added the meta descriptions for all my cities in
GD >> MultiLocation >> Manage Location >> Edit individually
It works great.
I followed the edit individual tree down to the neighbourhood level and entered my neighbourhood meta description information. When I click SAVE the meta information does not save. It reverts back to what it was before.
As a trial, I took the meta description info out of the parent city and tried the neighbourhood meta description again. Still no go.
Are meta descriptions suppose to work for neighbourhoods or have I come across a bug?
Thanks.

March 13, 2015 at 4:15 pm #33952Hi David,
more than a Bug I’d rather say a part of our plugin that is still not up to standard.
The neighbourhood part of multilocation needs a major revamp. At the moment it only provides very basic functionality.
I’ll talk to Stiofan and try to put this on our agenda as soon as possible.
Thanks
July 22, 2015 at 7:37 pm #46560Hi Paolo!
Just thought I’d check in to see if Stiofan has fixed the SEO functionality of the Multi-Locations plugin yet?
Thanks.
David
July 22, 2015 at 7:43 pm #46561Neighbourhood revamp is still on the todo list…
Hopefully we will be able to work on that in August.
