Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Open Graph

You don't; there's nothing to configure and there is no admin page. By default, it will use whatever standard WordPress data it can to populate the Open Graph data. There are very simple yet powerful filters you can use to modify or extend the metadata returned by the plugin, described below.
There are two main ways to provide Open Graph metadata from your plugin or theme. First, you can implement the filter for a specific property. These filters are of the form opengraph_{name} where {name} is the unqualified Open Graph property name. For example, if you have a plugin that defines a custom post type named "movie", you could override the Open Graph type property for those posts using a function like: function my_og_type( $type ) { if ( get_post_type() == "movie" ) { $type = "movie"; } return $type; } add_filter( 'opengraph_type', 'my_og_type' ); This will work for all of the core Open Graph properties. However, if you want to add a custom property, such as fb:admins, then you would need to hook into the opengraph_metadata filter. This filter is passed an associative array, whose keys are the qualified Open Graph property names. For example: function my_og_metadata( $metadata ) { $metadata['fb:admins'] = '12345,67890'; return $metadata; } add_filter( 'opengraph_metadata', 'my_og_metadata' ); Note that you may need to define the RDFa prefix for your properties. Do this using the opengraph_prefixes filter.
The plugin uses the featured image first, then the images in the post content, then the images attached to the post. If there is no image at all, it uses the site icon, the custom logo or the header image. By default the plugin adds up to 3 images. You can change that by adding the following line to your wp-config.php define( 'OPENGRAPH_MAX_IMAGES', 1 ); or with the opengraph_max_images filter. To add or remove image sources, use the opengraph_image_sources filter. Each source is a callable that gets the post ID and returns attachment IDs: function my_og_image_sources( $sources ) { // Only use the featured image. return array( 'opengraph_thumbnail_image_ids' ); } add_filter( 'opengraph_image_sources', 'my_og_image_sources' );
Yes. Jetpack also adds Open Graph metadata, so the plugin disables the Jetpack output to avoid duplicate tags. To get the Jetpack output back, deactivate this plugin.
The plugin populates the meta 'name' attribute alongside the 'property' attribute by default. Because both, the og:* and twitter:* names, are actually registered at https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/MetaExtensions, this stays compliant with the HTML5 spec. If you want to use a more strict way anyways, you can enable the strict mode by adding the following line to your wp-config.php define( 'OPENGRAPH_STRICT_MODE', true );
