Hello

1. Provide please exact link and screen of page code what is corrent and what is wrong by your idea. You can see page code using CTRL+U for example
2. Here is not option but you can do it by code placed into file functions.php:

   add_action('template_redirect', function() { if (is_search() && !is_admin()) { wp_redirect(home_url('/shop/')); exit; } });

   OR

   add_filter('posts_search', function($search, $query) {
   if (!is_admin() && $query->is_search() && $query->is_main_query()) {
   $search = " AND 0=1 ";
   }
   return $search;
   }, 10, 2);

Welcome!

Hello

So, we just checked it on the basic set  of scripts (woo+woof+yoast+wp theme twentytwelve) and its works. Try next please:

1. use /5vyazkost-iso-46/ in rules then check
2. if no luck create stage site using https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ and disable there all plugins exept to check woo+woof+yoast
3. if doesn work also, change wp theme to see if theme has prevent code inside

If you do not have knoweledge how to check it you can provide us with stage site access (wp-admin + ftp) in the private area of this ticket

Also please provide actual purchase code

Can you tell me how to access the plugin from my theme? So I can check if the page has the rule specified and display the 'h1' tag in the theme?

Quote from Alex Dovlatov on November 27, 2025, 12:31

Hello

I think I understand the confusion now.

Your site's internal search (the search box in your theme) searches through actual content - product titles, descriptions, posts, etc. HUSKY filter pages are not part of this search because they are dynamic URLs, not actual database entries.

HUSKY SEO URLs (like /brand/nike/color/red/) are generated dynamically when someone uses filters. These pages don't exist in WordPress database as posts or pages.

For Google/external search engines to find these URLs, you need to:

1. Add them to your sitemap.xml
2. HUSKY has a setting to generate SEO URLs for sitemaps
3. Submit the sitemap to Google Search Console

Your internal site search will NOT find HUSKY filter pages - it only searches real products/posts. This is normal behavior.

If you want HUSKY filter combinations to appear in Google search results, make sure:

• SEO URLs are enabled in HUSKY settings
• The URLs are added to your sitemap
• Meta descriptions and H1 tags are configured in HUSKY

Quote from explosive on November 27, 2025, 21:32

For some reason, this condition (highlighted in bold in the code) isn't met in the code. Because of this, the H1 tag isn't being replaced.

    public function set_page_title($title, $id) {

        $rule = $this->check_search_rules();

        if ($rule && is_page($id) && $this->do_index()) {

            if (isset($rule['h1']) AND $rule['h1']) {

                $title = apply_filters('woof_seo_h1', $this->replace_vars($rule['h1'], $this->get_current_replace_vars()));

            }

        }

        return $title;

    }

Hello

Thank you for the signal! We revise the function code and here is new one:

public function set_page_title($title, $id) {
$rule = $this->check_search_rules();

//$is_valid_page = is_page($id) || is_shop() || is_product_category() || is_product_tag() || is_tax() || is_post_type_archive('product');

if ($rule && (is_page($id) || is_woocommerce()) && $this->do_index()) {
if (isset($rule['h1']) AND $rule['h1']) {
$title = apply_filters('woof_seo_h1', $this->replace_vars($rule['h1'], $this->get_current_replace_vars()));
}
}
return $title;
}

please try it and give us know that ot works on your side

Quote from explosive on November 28, 2025, 20:37

This code works, but for some reason not only the H1 tag is replaced, but also all the links (<a ...)

I provided the data

Quote from Alex Dovlatov on December 8, 2025, 15:15

Hello

Its done

Your OceanWP theme uses its own mechanism for displaying page titles (ocean_title) instead of the standard WooCommerce hook. A race condition occurred: the theme requested the page title BEFORE the HUSKY SEO module had fully initialized. Therefore, SEO rules weren't applied to the H1 tag.

Solution:
Added special code to functions.php that:

// Removing the_title hook from WOOF SEO
add_action('wp', function() {
global $WOOF;

if (isset($WOOF) && is_object($WOOF)) {
// Checking if extensions have SEO
if (isset(WOOF_EXT::$includes['applications']['url_request']->seo)) {
$seo_obj = WOOF_EXT::$includes['applications']['url_request']->seo;
remove_filter('the_title', array($seo_obj, 'set_page_title'), 10000);
}
}
}, 999);

// Fix HUSKY SEO H1
add_action('ocean_before_page_header', function () {
add_filter('ocean_title', function ($title) {

// Get WOOF settings directly from the database
$woof_settings = get_option('woof_settings', []);

// Check if SEO mode is enabled
if (!isset($woof_settings['woof_url_request']['enable']) || !$woof_settings['woof_url_request']['enable']) {
return $title;
}

// Get the current locale
$current_lang = get_locale();

// Get rules for the current language
if (!isset($woof_settings['woof_url_request']['seo_rules'][$current_lang]) ||
!is_array($woof_settings['woof_url_request']['seo_rules'][$current_lang])) {
return $title;
}

$seo_rules = $woof_settings['woof_url_request']['seo_rules'][$current_lang];

if (empty($seo_rules)) {
return $title;
}

// Get the current URL
$current_url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

// Looking for a suitable rule
$matched_rule = null;
foreach ($seo_rules as $rule_data) {
if (!isset($rule_data['url'])) {
continue;
}

// Convert the URL pattern to regex
$needle = ['{any}', '/', 'end'];
$replace = ['.*', '\/', '$'];
$url_pattern = str_replace($needle, $replace, $rule_data['url']);

// Check for a match
if (preg_match('/' . $url_pattern . '/', $current_url)) {
$matched_rule = $rule_data;
break;
}
}

// If the rule is not found or H1 is empty
if (!$matched_rule || !isset($matched_rule['h1']) || !$matched_rule['h1']) {
return $title;
}

// Take H1 from the rule
$h1 = $matched_rule['h1'];

// Basic variable substitutions
$h1 = str_replace('{site_name}', get_bloginfo('name'), $h1);

// If you need complex replacements (like {pa_color}, {current_tax_name}, etc.)
// you can add additional logic
global $WOOF;
if (isset($WOOF) && is_object($WOOF)) {
// Get the current taxonomy
if (method_exists($WOOF, 'get_really_current_term')) {
$current_term = $WOOF->get_really_current_term();
if ($current_term) {
$h1 = str_replace('{current_tax_name}', $current_term->name, $h1);
}
}

// Get parameters from the URL
$request = isset($_REQUEST) ? $_REQUEST : [];
$taxonomies = $WOOF->get_taxonomies();

foreach ($request as $key => $val) {
if (isset($taxonomies[$key])) {
$slugs = explode(',', $val);
$terms = get_terms([
'taxonomy' => $taxonomies[$key]->name,
'slug' => $slugs,
'fields' => 'names'
]);
if (is_array($terms) && !empty($terms)) {
$h1 = str_replace('{' . $key . '}', implode(', ', $terms), $h1);

$tax_label = isset($taxonomies[$key]->labels->name) ? $taxonomies[$key]->labels->name : '';
$h1 = str_replace('{' . $key . '_title}', $tax_label, $h1);
}
}
}
}

// Remove unreplaced variables
$h1 = preg_replace('/\{[a-zA-Z0-9_\W]+?\}/m', '', $h1);

return apply_filters('woof_seo_h1', $h1);
}, 9999999);
});

Works directly with plugin settings from the database
Connects to the theme hook (ocean_title)
Fires at the right time – right before the title is displayed
Isn't dependent on the plugin initialization order

SEO titles now work correctly with your theme.

Quote from explosive on December 8, 2025, 22:18

Thanks. It works. But the meta description still doesn't work. The Yoast tag is still displayed.

Quote from Alex Dovlatov on December 9, 2025, 15:42

Hello

Here is strange situation: 2 meta descriptions on the same page

So, in functions.php was added next code:

function is_woof_search_going() {

global $WOOF;

        $is_search = false;

        if ($WOOF && $WOOF->is_isset_in_request_data($WOOF->get_swoof_search_slug())) {

            $is_search = true;

        }

        return $is_search;

}

add_filter('wpseo_metadesc', 'woof_remove_yoast_description', 999);

function woof_remove_yoast_description($description) {

if(is_woof_search_going()){

      return ''; // Пустая строка вместо false

}

}

Now, only onde meta description when WOOF search is going
