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.

It's still unsolved bug from Yoast. The value appears in source code but not on the snippet preview.
