WP Facebook Open Graph protocol

This plugin adds well executed and accurate Facebook Open Graph Meta tag information to your site. The idea is to keep minimal settings and options as to remain out of your way and in the background while still proving a powerful Open Graph plugin for your WordPress site. This plugin works on Facebook, Google Plus, and Linkedin. Shortname: WPFBOGP Image Handling By popular demand we've added a setting so the Fallback image in settings can be the default sitewide. If you don't check that box, here's now she works. The plugin will first look for a featured image. If there isn't one or your theme doesn't have those available, then it will pull the image(s) in the post/page content. If that isn't there either, then it will default to using the image you put into the plugin settings in the admin panel. If THAT isn't there then... well you fail and you won't have an image and we'll put a comment in your source to remind you to add one as Facebook requires one. New in 2.0 - We'll pull ALL those images and feed them to Facebook and Google + so you can hit the arrows to select which one you want. It will use the fallback image first IF it's selected as default, then will do featured image next and then any content images. Test with the Facebook Debugger. Title and Description New in 2.0+, the plugin will use the title and meta description from ANY SEO plugin or theme, including Genesis and Thesis. Worst case it'll fall back to pulling some of your content as a last-ditch backup. But if you're concerned with what your Open Graph tags look like, then you should probably be running some kind of SEO plugin anyways. AMIRITE? Testing Your Site Once you've enabled the plugin head over to Facebook's testing tool and paste in one of your post/page url's or your home page to see what info Facebook is pulling in.

• Fixed issue when using the blog as a page had root url

2.0.11 Release Date - 2014-07-31

• Check for relative URLs in post thumbnails images - props -> github.com/jjeaton
• fixes problem w/ strings in image array
• flip image array. this will move your default image (if you have one) to the top of the array but Facebook pulls it the way they want anyways.

2.0.10

• Remove deprecated argument from get_the_excerpt. Fixes PHP Notice. props -> github.com/jjeaton

2.0.9

• tested to WP3.9

2.0.8

• update html namespace to prefix (ogp.me) from xmlns (facebook)
• dont run buffer if in a feed
• fixed media uploader link

2.0.7

• fixes bug with certain plugins not showing description tags properly
• added back self-close on meta tags to preserve xhtml compatability, html5 is forgiving. core does this.

2.0.6

• The changes we made to fix the dollar sign in title problem caused big problems in wp admin. rolling back for now while we plan and recode a lot of the plugin w/ norcross for a bigger update. Just don't use dollar signs for now in titles. sorry. standby.

2.0.5

• Short: Dollar signs in titles were screwing things up. Long Story: Fixed a bug where preg_replace() would think a dollar sign in the argument is a backreference, instead of just a dollar sign. Now using preg_quote() to escape all regex variables/symbols in a string. Makes things mo betta!

2.0.4

• Image size for OpenGraph now defaults to medium for thumbnail image
• updated screenshot. it was from v1 so was about time
• fixed grammar error - props Jeff K.

2.0.3

• Should fix the "Parser Mismatched Metadata" warnings Facebook started throwing. Made locale all lowercase.

2.0.2

• Fixes bug that would display a PHP warning with debug mode turned on.
• Removed code that would filter the_content() which caused problems with plugins that also used that same filter.

2.0.1

• Fixed bug where og:url was returning a https URL instead of http, causing Facebook Linter to fail. Now using the WordPress function is_ssl() instead of the $_SERVER global variable.
• Fixed bug with some SEO plugins where the page title and meta description were not being pulled correctly.
• Changed front pages to have the og:type 'website', not 'article'.
• Fixed bug where the 'force fallback' checkbox will check itself after initial installation.

2.0

• Now works with ALL SEO plugins AND Frameworks like Genesis and Thesis. It now grabs the actual outputted tag and description after all SEO plugins/themes/etc have done their job.
• New Open Graph feature allow multiple images therefore we now add all those properly for selection (in Facebook, Google +, and even now Linkedin) if there are more than one in the post/page in addition to any featured image and the fallback image in settings (only if force fallback isn't selected).
• Removed og:page_id - Facebook depreciated that 1 April 2012.
• Adds filters to all outputted values.
• Images in Galleries work too now as we apply filters to the_content() before pulling images.
• Some house cleaning: old functions removed, code cleaned up, and better follows WordPress coding standards.
• Modified plugin settings help links - facebook keeps changing things :/
• Last but certainly not least... Improves performance == WIN

1.6.1

• Bug fix with 1.6 initial release. Titles broke for some running 'naked sites' w/ no seo plugins. It worked on all testing sites but obviously I need to test a little more. Standby

1.6

• update help info and links as Facebook has changed a lot about their docs including image should be 200px square now
• use wp_title() to get the title of the current page. SEO plugins filter wp_title so we will get the best title available. This is a baby step towards bigger and better things :)
• fix bug in scraping content images
• add settings option to allow fallback image to become site-wide default

• updated image handling post id issue and changed medium size image to thumbnail for optimization and speed
• fixed og:url to work with every page type and archive type
• x.5 update because needed to push some of these bugs out but too busy to fix others. more updates coming soon.

1.3

• Added much requested auto-description generation from content. So now on single posts, it will still look for the post excerpt and if one doesn't exist it will auto-generate one from the first 160 characters of the content field.
• redacted some other updates to push this one feature out - more soonish.
