Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes. Without these variables, I have to manually update 1000s of products to be compliant.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add the variables back.

Why do you think this feature is something we should consider for the Yoast SEO plugins?

Sometimes the same page or event shares a similar name as another, but taking place at a different month.

Hi @awppg

Thanks for using the Yoast SEO plugin and also for creating the issue.

Kindly note that we only deprecated the snippet variables, meaning we haven't yet removed them from the code. That means those snippets still work on your website.

The reason why we deprecated those snippets can be seen in a previous issue created by a user: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/10220#issuecomment-402486481
