Improved display of the image in social media publishing

Hi,

That's really a nice addition. We will consider it for sure. Until then you can just the following snippet in the article layout override to achieve what you want:

if (isset($this->item->jcfields[1]))
{
        $document = JFactory::getDocument();
	$document->setMetadata('og:image', substr(JUri::root(false), 0, -1).$this->item->jcfields[1]->image->src, 'property');
}

Note that this code is for Joomla articles and assumes that you are using Econa as a custom field and the field ID is 1.
If you are not using Econa as a custom field then you can install Route 66 which allows you to set the article's intro/full image as Open Graph tags.

The logic should be similar for any extension that is using custom fields. Give it a try and let me know.

Hi,

I will try to add it in the next update.

Hi,

Twitter is also using the same open graph tags so it's a bit weird that it doesn't work. I will make some tests and let you know.
