QuoteFacebook meta tags

The thumbnail image for your auto-posted campaign looks like this.

<meta property="og:image" content="url to image" />

If you choose not to set an icon manually, Facebook will choose an image to use as the default thumbnail for you.

The title for the post looks like this.

<meta property="og:title" content="title of the page" />

If you choose not to add this property, Facebook will populate the page title with your MailChimp campaign's subject line.

A short description of your campaign content looks like this.

<meta property="og:description" content="add a short description of the page or content"/>

If you choose not to add this property, Facebook will select a section of your campaign content for you automatically.

Where can i put those 3 lines in index.templete.php ?

So, I think it was just a misunderstanding between the use of two versions, one is updated now. It's been so long to to solve this blunder mistakes.

The easiest way is by modifying the index.template.php from your theme, adding the meta tags properly in the right section.

First, you need to upload the image you want to show to your FTP to be accessible via web, something like my.domain.com/image.png

Then, add them with echo and some SMF variables you can have pretty much all the info needed, for Facebook.

In index.template.php find:

Code Select


	// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)

and add before:

Code Select


	echo '
	<meta property="og:image" content="my.domain.com/image.png" />
	<meta property="og:title" content="', $context['page_title_html_safe'], '" />
	<meta property="og:description" content="', $context['page_title_html_safe'], '"/>';

(remember to change the image URL)

This should work, but the description is just the same as the title. If you want something different, then you really need to search for a mod that does this kind of thing.
