OpenGraph with external images

[drmenzelit]

Hi,
I'm using Phoca OpenGraph for a client website where the most images are from external urls, in this case OpenGraph doesn't work, because it create a wrong url for the image (the website url + the url of the image itself).
Can this be changed?
It would be really great!
Thanks

Hi Viviana,

Found this older thread: viewtopic.php?t=38952

The modified lines were from previous version 3.0.5. Downloaded & checked the latest one now: 3.1.2 and it's implemented starting line: 230. Sorry, I don't know, if above info will help you.

Kind regards
Christine

Hi, which version of the extension do you use? System or Content plugin?

The plugin tries to find the images with full url:

Code: Select all

$absU = 0;
					// Test if this link is absolute http:// then do not change it
					$pos1 			= strpos($src[1], 'http://');
					if ($pos1 === false) {
					} else {
						$absU = 1;
					}
					
					// Test if this link is absolute https:// then do not change it
					$pos2 			= strpos($src[1], 'https://');
					if ($pos2 === false) {
					} else {
						$absU = 1;
					}

So there should not be any problem with external images

Hi Jan,
I have the content plugin version 3.1.2
That is how it shows on the page:
<meta name="og:image" content="http://clienturl.eu/https://gdb.rferl.o ... 3_r1_s.jpg">
The code you posted above search for a url in images inside the article, right. But my client has intro images...

Regards

Hi, Ok, so this explains it all. For now there is no support for external urls in intro image, so I will implement it in next version.

Thank you for the info.
