Can you please give a update on it because i tried it with yoast 9.0.2 and it created the variable but unable to get the data stored under the variable. It shows it same as %%mytitle%%, it was supposed to show 'my name is moss'

@mrayushh The snippet preview in the backend will show the custom variable %%myname%%. However, the source code of your site will show the output of the variable My name is Moses.
