## Beskrywing

The [Open Graph protocol](https://ogp.me/) enables any web page to become a rich
object in a social graph. Most notably, this allows for these pages to be used with
Facebook’s [Like Button](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like)
and [Graph API](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/) as well as 
within Twitter posts.

The Open Graph plugin inserts the Open Graph metadata into WordPress posts and pages,
and provides a simple extension mechanism for other plugins and themes to override
this data, or to provide additional Open Graph data.

This plugin does not directly add social plugins like the Facebook Like Button to
your pages (though they’re pretty simple to add). It will however make your pages
look great when shared using those kinds of tools.

## Kwel-vrae

### How do I configure the Open Graph plugin?

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.

### How do I extend the Open Graph plugin?

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:admin’, 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:admin'] = '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.

### How to enable/disable “strict mode”

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 scrict mode
by adding the following line to your `config.php`

    ```
    define( 'OPENGRAPH_STRICT_MODE', true );
    ```

This plugin does what it says it does – it adds open graph metadata on website. 
No configuration and do the work just as advertised. Simply excellent.

Wow thank you for making this plugin!!! I was so stressed about thumbnails errors
but now I don’t need to worry about it! Thanks!

Great plug-in! I just installed it last night and now the og:image (large image 
preview) is looking correct on my posts when shared to Facebook. I normally don’t
leave reviews but noticed this plug-in had very few. It worked like a charm on my
website to show the big preview when others (including some well known ones) wouldn’t.
I was getting frustrated and wasting time googling plug-ins that didn’t work on 
my site for some reason. Finally this one worked! It does what it says, and is very
simple to use, no configuration needed.
