<p>Open Graphite lets you control how your WordPress content is viewed when shared on social media.</p>
<p>Typically when one of your pages is shared on social media (Facebook for example), the platform will use the first image and text it can find on the page. This is usually not ideal and often truncates the content into something nonsensical, resulting in the page being less likely to be engaged with.</p>
<p>Open Graphite solves this problem, by allowing you to customise the image, title and description of any of your pages that are shared on social media, all without compromising the original content.</p>
<h3>How to use</h3>
<p>For the homepage…</p>
<ul>
<li>Go to Open Graphite (admin side menu)</li>

<p>This plugin adds several Open Graph Meta Elements to the header of your theme for blog posts and pages to avoid no thumbnail, wrong title / description issue etc. It is compatible with the WordPress SEO plugins “wpSEO” and “All in One SEO Pack”. When a title or description is stored by one of these SEO plugins, WP Open Graph Meta will use them.</p>
<p>The Open Graph protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph. For instance, this is used on Facebook to allow any web page to have the same functionality as any other object on Facebook.</p>
<p>To turn your posts and pages into graph objects, the plugin adds the following meta elements to webpage header:</p>
<h4>For post/page</h4>
<ul>
<li>og:title – The title of your post/page (compatible with “wpSEO” and “All in One SEO Pack”)</li>
<li>og:type – The type of your post/page. Depending on the type it is possible to specify automatically other properties.</li>
<li>og:url – The canonical URL of your post/page</li>
<li>og:description – The excerpt of your post/page (compatible with “wpSEO” and “All in One SEO Pack”)</li>
<li>og:site_name – The title of website.</li>
<li>og:locale – The locale these tags are marked up in.</li>
<li>og:image – An image URL (featured image if exists) which should represent your post/page</li>
</ul>
<h4>For post only</h4>
<ul>
<li>article:tag – Tag words associated with your post.</li>
