Customising the content that are being analysed

[TWOC-WHT]

Currently the content that are being analysed is the whole source code of the preview (Which includes the header, navbar, footer, and other parts of the page)
Is there a way to customise or filter the content before analysing?

Hi @TWOC-WHT

Currently no. It can be done quite simply with this solution :

We can add a new field (like keywords) in the Yoast Wagtail panel, something like this:

# Filter the contents of the preview page with a jQuery selector
filter_selector =  models.CharField(...)

What do you think about this?

[TWOC-WHT]

Hi @Aleksi44 thanks for the reply!
That's interesting! Let me see if I get this right:
So in the filter_selector, we will fill the part of the content we would like to analyse with a jQuery selector?
i.e. if the part that we would like to analyse has the class "content", the filter_selector will be filled ".content"

@TWOC-WHT

Yes, you got it. Is that what you want?

[TWOC-WHT]

@Aleksi44 ah yes, that could do! Thank you very much!

@TWOC-WHT

Cool, I'll do it when I have some time (next week I think).

[TWOC-WHT]

@Aleksi44 Great! look forward to it and will definitely try it out!
Oh and thank you for creating this package!

[TWOC-WHT]

Hi @Aleksi44 are there any update regarding this? Is there anything that I can help with?
I don't mind to look into it myself, although I might need some pointers on where to start (i.e. which files to pay attention to or which documentation I can refer to)

Hi @TWOC-WHT
I have started to do the work on this PR to guide you if you wish to move forward on this subject.
