Hi guys,

I have to define facebook og properties for a project.

I have used the logic for defining the properties in MetaTags object:

Pageview.Meta.AddTag("og:title", Model.Title);  
 

Which renders this result:

<meta name="og:title" content="Aparat de spalat cu presiune -total - 130 bar - 1400w">

However, when analyzing the implementation on Facebook I get this message:

The following meta tags are specified using 'name' instead of 'property' and will be ignored unless specified using the 'property' key: og:type, og:url, og:image, og:site_name, og:title

Is there any way I can change the output of the tags?

Thank you,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

In order to override the default format you can provide a custom meta tag where you have full control over the markup. The name of the tag needs to start with "custom"...

Pageview.Meta.AddTag("customOpenGraphTitle", $"<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"{Model.Title}\" />");

Another option is to implement this using snippets...

@SnippetStart("OpenGraph")
<meta property="og:title" content="@Model.Title" />
// Add more properties here
@SnippetEnd("OpenGraph")

// Place the following inside head element of master template
@RenderSnippet("OpenGraph")

Best regards,
Morten
