Hi everyone!

Happy Friday. Here's a short how-to (with copy + paste ready-to-go example) if you're looking for a resource that shows you how to easily add Open Graph Metadata to your Content View. This is the information Facebook uses to show preview cards - so it helps to get better visibility in news feeds on social networks.

I hope you find it useful. Have a good weekend.

Hello James,

thanks for the documentation.

An additional hint: Instead of position overwrite you can use as well the beforeRender field from the codepack plugin.

Best

Hi James, thank you.

I have images in a field x.

I tried 

$ogimg        = '<meta property="og:image" content="'. JURI::base() .''.$cck->getValue('my_fieldx,0').'" />';

but didn't work.

Thanks in advance

Luca
