    I got this code from github and its working properly, but i am using yoast seo plugin, with this plugin this code not working.

    how can i add year in title with yoast seo plugin?
    Also how can i add year in the_experts and open graph metatags? 

    function wpmoly_movie_title_year( $title, $post_id ) {

        // Don't do this in admin
        if ( is_admin() )
                return $title;

        // Apply only to movies
        if ( 'movie' != get_post_type( $post_id ) )
                return $title;

        // 'the_title' filter gives a post ID, but 'single_post_title' gives a post object
        if ( is_object( $post_id ) )
                $post_id = $post_id->ID;

        // Get release_date for WPMovieLibrary 2.x movies
        $meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_wpmoly_movie_release_date', true );

        // If release date is available
        if ( '' != $meta) {
                $date = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_wpmoly_movie_release_date', true );
                $date = date_i18n( 'Y', strtotime( $meta ) );
                $title = $title . ' (' . $date . ')';
        }

        return $title;
}
add_filter( 'the_title', 'wpmoly_movie_title_year', 10, 2 );
add_filter( 'single_post_title', 'wpmoly_movie_title_year', 10, 2 );

    Hi networkwebmasters,

    That does not apply in dashboard, as you can see from the first lines, if ( is_admin() ) return $title;; that’s meant to avoid messing with the post editing features and accidentally save the filtered titles to the database, since even though they would be saved, filtering would still apply, and you’ll end up with Prometheus (2012) (2012) (2012) (2012) titles…

    Not sure how this can work with Yoast SEO. The plugin changed a lot lately and switched to JavaScript to analyze some things, so I’m not sure what can or can’t be done with it anymore.

    I want to add year only on frontend in title, the_experts and in open graph metatags.

    If i disable yoast seo plugin it works properly on frontend, and if i activate it again the titles appeares generated by yoast seo.

    Hi Charlie,
    Any Update On This?

    Unfortunately no, not really; that’s a filter war, Yoast and WPMovieLibrary are probably using the same filters to alter the titles and other data…

    Try changing the filters priority to 50, see if we can run ours after Yoast:

    add_filter( 'the_title', 'wpmoly_movie_title_year', 50, 2 );
add_filter( 'single_post_title', 'wpmoly_movie_title_year', 50, 2 );

    I tried changing the filters priority to 50, not working ??

    i added this filter, it works but title output is
    Movie Name – Site Title (Movie Year)
    This filter adds movie year after site name.

    add_filter( 'wpseo_title', 'wpmoly_movie_title_year', 10, 2 );

    Are you running WordPress 4.4 or superior?

    WordPress Version is 4.5.3

    That explains. I took a look at Yoast SEO 3.3.2 and it uses the pre_get_document_title hook, making it harder to edit titles on the fly. This code should get you closer, though.
