Add subdirectory support for all links

    I have a website that is using localization via Javascript. It generates subdirectories for each language and appends the language tag to the URL after the domain. For example, you can visit http://www.test.com/ja for Japanese, as well as test.com/ko/ for Korean. You can also visit posts, such as http://www.test.com/ja/this-is-a-post.

    Google search console will fetch these and render them properly. Is there a way to add these subdirectories to my sitemap that is generated by Yoast to help with SEO?

    The Yoast SEO is currently compatible with the WPML multilingual plugin. So, we suggest you please switch to the WPML multilingual plugin to create a multilingual sitemap.

    That said you can add external links to the sitemap index by following the steps given in our this guide.

    Thanks @mazedulislamkhan. The link to the guide was exactly what I needed!

    I adjusted the function to include 

    global $wpseo_sitemaps;
$date = $wpseo_sitemaps->get_last_modified('post');

    and then use that for <lastmod>' . htmlspecialchars( $date ) . '</lastmod>
