Pull Related Products from Primary Category Only

    I am using WooCommerce and would like to have the related products only pull products from the product’s primary category, not all categories.

    I found some code to do this when using Yoast to set the primary category but can’t figure out how to do it with RankMath.

    I edited the Yoast code and this is one version I tried, but it hasn’t worked. 

    // Alter related products query to pull items from RankMath Primary Category
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_related_product_cat_terms', function( $terms, $product_id ) {
    if ( function_exists( 'rank_math_primary_product_cat' ) ) {
        $primary_term_product_id = rank_math_primary_product_cat( 'product_cat', $product_id );
        if ( $primary_term_product_id ) {
            return array( $primary_term_product_id );
        }
    }
    return $terms;
}, 10, 2 );

    Hello @courtneyd,

    Thank you for contacting the support.

    Please use the filter given below to show the related products from the primary category:

    function rank_math_get_primary_term_id( $taxonomy = 'category', $post = null ) {
$post = get_post( $post );

$primary_term = get_post_meta(get_queried_object_id(), 'rank_math_primary_product_cat', true);
return $primary_term;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_related_product_cat_terms', function( $terms, $product_id ) {
if ( function_exists( 'rank_math_get_primary_term_id' ) ) {
$primary_term_product_id = rank_math_get_primary_term_id( 'product_cat', $product_id );
if ( $primary_term_product_id ) {
return array( $primary_term_product_id );
}
}
return $terms;
}, 10, 2 );

    Hope that helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
