I’m glad to help!

Hi, here’s the code I’ve been sent and that worked for me.

//see wp-includes/post-template.php
//function falang_translate_post_content_old($content){
// if ( preg_match( ‘/<!–more(.*?)?–>/’, $content, $matches ) ) {
// if ( has_block( ‘more’, $content ) ) {
// // Remove the core/more block delimiters. They will be left over after $content is split up.
// $content = preg_replace( ‘/<!– \/?wp:more(.*?) –>/’, ”, $content );
// }
//
// $more_link_text = sprintf(
// ‘<span aria-label=”%1$s”>%2$s</span>’,
// sprintf(
// /* translators: %s: Post title. */
// __( ‘Continue reading %s’ ),
// the_title_attribute(
// array(
// ‘echo’ => false,
// ‘post’ => $_post,
// )
// )
// ),
// __( ‘(more…)’ )
// );
//
//
// $output = ”;
//
// $content = explode( $matches[0], $content, 2 );
//
// if ( ! empty( $matches[1] ) ) {
// $more_link_text = strip_tags( wp_kses_no_null( trim( $matches[1] ) ) );
// }
//
// $output = $content[0];
//
// if ( count( $content ) > 1 ) {
// if ( ! empty( $more_link_text ) ) {
// $output .= apply_filters( ‘the_content_more_link’, ‘ ID}\” class=\”more-link\”>$more_link_text“, $more_link_text );
// }
// }
// $output = force_balance_tags( $output );
// return $output;
//
// }
// return $content;
//}

Hi there and thanks for replying. I did as you said but unfortunately I’ve still got the issue. In my case I have an Italian blog with English translations.

When I edit a native post it holds the link with the translated one, but conversly the English post looses the hreflang tag. Eventually, when even the translated article is edited and republished, they both loose the link.

Anyway this is happening with every plugin of this kind I’m testing in my local environment.

Hi and thank you for replying.

Is the first code (Exclude specific posts) meant for setting “no index”? If yes, how should I use it to set the tag to the desired posts? Moreover, should I put the code in the function.php file?

Thanks.
