    Hello, when the product is withdrawn from sale, I want to set it as hidden. Unfortunatelly, rank math sets noindex and nofollow. There’s no point in nofollow, so I tried changing robots with functions.php, in this case I tried changing all follow links for testing purpose

    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
        $robots["index"] = 'index';
        $robots["follow"] = 'follow';
      return $robots;
    });

    No changes, this snippet however:

    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
    	$robots['index'] = 'index';
    	$robots['index'] = 'index';
    	return $robots;
    },999 );

    It adds additional robots:

    <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, nofollow, follow, index, max-snippet:-1, max-video-preview:-1, max-image-preview:large”/>

    I also tried without any luck

    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) { if(is_product()) { $robots = ['index' => 'noindex', 'follow' => 'nofollow', 'imageindex' => 'noimageindex', 'archive' => 'noarchive' ]; return $robots; } return $robots; });

    Hello @mcdeth,

    You can use the following filter to set the hidden products as follow:

    add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
    	if ( ! is_product() ) {
    		return $robots;
    	}

    	$product   = \wc_get_product();
    	$is_hidden = $product && $product->get_catalog_visibility() === 'hidden';
    	if ( $is_hidden ) {
    		$robots['nofollow'] = 'follow';
    	}

    	return $robots;
    }, 11 );

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
