Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags
By Saad Iqbal
Description
This plugin improves the sharing of your WordPress pages, posts, WooCommerce products, or any other post type on social media, by setting the correct Facebook Open Graph Tags.
It also allows you to add the Twitter Card tags for more effective and efficient Twitter sharing results, as well as the Meta Description and Canonical tags if no other SEO plugin is setting them.
This plugin is not, in any way, affiliated or endorsed by Facebook, Twitter, Google or any other 3rd party.
You can also choose to insert the enclosure and media:content tags to the RSS feeds, so that apps like RSS Graffiti and twitterfeed post the image to Facebook correctly.
It allows the user to choose which tags are included, and also the default image if the post/page doesn’t have one.
It’s also possible to add an overlay logo/watermark to the image. The plugin will resize and crop the original image to 1200x630 and then overlay the chosen 1200x630 PNG file over it. It can be useful to add your brand to the image that shows up on Facebook shared links.
Our settings page is discreetly kept under Options.
Other Notable Features
Here are a few other notable features of this free Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags plugin.
FAQ
- Are you using a big enough image? The minimum image size is 200×200 pixels but we recommend 1200×630.
- Are you sure you only have one
og:imagetag on the source code? Make sure you’re not using more than one plugin to set OG tags? - Go to the Facebook Sharing Debugger, insert your URL, click
Debug. Then click onScrape Againto make sure Facebook gets the current version of your HTML code and not a cached version. If the image that shows up on the preview (bottom of the page) is the correct one, then the tags are well set and it “should” be the one that Facebook uses when sharing the post. If it still does not use the correct image when sharing, despite the debugger shows it correctly, there’s nothing more we can do about that. That’s just Facebook being Facebook.
