Implemented New Menu Integration Does Not Work

Hi Alex,
I see that on that page (frontpage) ochOpenGraph is not executed.
I think that for this page you used the com_content / featured view?
And there are no featured articles?

If so then Joomla (due to lack of content) will not trigger content plugins.

If the above is correct, you can solve that by adding a custom module to that page with the { ochopengraph} tag in it. The module should be placed and activated on a template position on that page (you will not see it) and it should be configured to 'prepare content = yes'

See documentation: onlinecommunityhub.nl/documentation/ochopengraph-content-plugin > tab Documentation > Tab Manual Settings

The module will now trigger ochOpenGraph which will detect that you configure the menu and will use what is set there.

Can you give that a try?

Hi Alex,
good to hear that worked out for you.
regarding the "news' type setting, That is not set by ochOpenGraph but set by the template / extension / other plugin which overwrites the value you configured in ochOpenGraph.

ochOpengraph set it by default to article, you configured it to website in the menu, so something else is setting it to 'news'

Maybe you can turn of facebook / twitter metatags in the sp pagebuilder options?

Hi Ruud,

I only use ochOpenGraph and whenever I install something that has similar functionality, I disable it immediatelly. As far my template goes, I am using the Helix Ultimate Framwork and use of OpenGraph is turned off, the same for PageBuilder (see attached screenshots). The only place where I have news configured is in the ochOpenGraph plugin settings (see attached screenshot).

Thanks,
Alex

Let me check that tomorrow if I can reproduce. Currently off line

Sounds good, thank you!

Hi Alex,

so tried to troubleshoot / replicate on my dev site.

the type is a 'hidden' setting in the plugin config. It is set to 'article'

it can be overwritten via the { ochopengraph type="new setting"} tag or via the menu setting (type)

it check the menu, if not set it checks the tag, if not set it falls back to 'article'

I have a 2.0.2.DEV version for you in the private message tab.

This version has some changes regarding tags and propagating menu config settings to subpages of that menu. It also has some more debug information reported in the log file (when debug is set to yes).

Could you install this version so we can use this to troubleshoot (maybe issue already solved with this version). Otherwise we are doing double the work as this will be the new version.
 

Hi Ruud,

The dev version did not change anything, but when overwritting it via the { ochopengraph type="new setting"} it changed the type to what I wrote inside the tag. Also I tested removing News from the ochOpenGraph plugin Section Name and it removed it as well. Not sure how the latter is supposed to behave.

for the latter: when in the plugin config the section name is empty then the article:section tag is not set (that is what you currently have, so that is correct). For the record: the section name has noting to do with the og:type tag

Now I see on your frontpage og:type = website

This is either set in the menu or via the { ochopengraph type="website"} tag in the custom module on the frontpage.
