Problem with Open Graph

francus641

Hi, on a JA-Trip-based site, the Open Graph code is triggered only on articles and the article's intro image is displayed.

On all other pages, and I'm particularly interested in the home page, it isn't triggered even though I've inserted a correctly sized image in the "Images" metadata field in the Open Graph tab of the Home menu item.

As mentioned, it appears at the article level, so the template is already set up correctly for Open Graph.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards

Hi Francus,

Here’s what I did to attempt to replicate that issue:

Enabled the Open Graph option in the Global settings of the template.
Added a metadata image for the home menu item.

However, when I tried to share the page via Facebook, for instance, it displayed the correct image.

Hi Heinz,

As I wrote in the opening message, I enabled Open Graph, and indeed, when menu items are linked to an article, the article's intro image is displayed correctly.

However, despite having set a specific image as you showed me, the HOME page isn't displaying any open graph.

The page's HTML analysis doesn't detect Open Graph, and a test like the one you suggested shows this:

In a couple of days at most, the site will be on the permanent domain. I'll post the link so you can check it out for yourself.

Meanwhile, thank you very much, as always.

The site is now online. I included the link in the opening post.

As you can see, if you search the home page's HTML, you won't find "og:image," and the Open Graph information isn't triggered.

However, if you look at the HTML of any page linked to an article, everything works fine.

What could be the problem?

Obviously, as mentioned, the image has been inserted into the Open Graph image field in the home page menu item (metadata image).

And just to clear, yes, it has been enabled.

Here is OG info as I can see:

og:url your_site_url
og:title Home - Vasco Safari Kenya
og:description Vasco Safari Kenya, dove trovare informazioni e giusti contatti per la vostra vacanza in Kenya avvalendovi dell'esperienza di un operatore locale.

Do you see this information in the home page's HTML? I don't.

Don't rely on Meta's test, which fetches another image if it doesn't find a specified one ( and in fact, that's not the one I chose).

Test by trying to send the site via WhatsApp.

The OG information is only rendered if the menu item is an article.

In all other cases, it isn't.
