Remove action noindex_expired_filled_job_listings

    I’m having issues with the functionality of filled jobs being changed into noindex. I would like to use Rankmaths SEO tool’s functionality and some custom code the set filled jobs to noindex.
    Reference: https://support.rankmath.com/ticket/exclude-custom-post-type-with-specific-status-from-sitemap/?view=all

    In order to do that, I need to remove add_action( 'wp_head', [ $this, 'noindex_expired_filled_job_listings' ], 0 ); from class-wp-job-manager-post-types.php.

    I try to remove this action using the following code in functions.php, but it isn’t working:

    add_action( 'wp_head', 'remove_noindex_expired_filled_job_listings' );
function remove_noindex_expired_filled_job_listings() {
    remove_action( 'wp_head', array( 'WP_Job_Manager_Post_Types', 'noindex_expired_filled_job_listings' ) );
}

    Does anyone know how to remove this action without touching the plugin?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Hi @waffeltje

    I’ve seen you’ve mentioned that the filled/expired jobs are being turned to no-index; however, that’s completely normal behavior.

    That can be altered and changed with custom development; however, assisting with customizations is outside of our support policy.

    You can find more information about custom development below:

    Best,

    Hi Mehdi,

    Thanks for your reply. I know that it is normal behaviour of the plugin to set filled jobs to no-index. But since I’m having troubles with Rank Math SEO I want to remove this functionality from the WPJM plugin. Therefore my question how this can be achieved.

    I was hoping that someone in this community had an easy fix for this problem, and that it is a simple alteration to the line of code I posted above.

    Would love to find out if this can be achieved in a simple manner.

    Hi @waffeltje,

    I dug a little further, and perhaps the following snippet might help: 

    /**
* Allows filtering of the robots meta data.
*
* @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
global $post;
if('job_listing' === get_post_type( get_the_ID() )){
$robots['index'] = "noindex";
return $robots;
}
return $robots;
});

    I cannot guarantee this will work, but give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Have you asked the folks at Rank Maths if they have an easier solution?
