Filter hooks and manual fields priority

    Hi,
    When I use slim_seo_meta_title filter, I can’t override a title using the meta fields box.
    I think manual fields should always have priority over filters.
    Thanks!

    Hi @yankiara ,

    It’s a common practice that WordPress hooks (actions, filters) have the highest priority because that way developers can control things with code. It’s the same in Slim SEO. In this case, you can check with code to see if it has manual meta title and bypass if it presents.

    OK, thank you. I’ll do that.

    For those interested, this code works:

    
add_filter( 'slim_seo_meta_title', function( $title ) {
    
    $slim_meta = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'slim_seo' );
    if ( $slim_meta && $slim_meta[0]['title']  )
        return $slim_meta[0]['title'];

    /* YOUR STUFF */

} );

    Might be added to documentation?
