Open Graph plugin uses wrong url
Posted: 28 Nov 2017, 11:06
Hi.
I've noticed an issue with og:url. (At least I think it is an issue)
As you know, in Joomla, if you have an article with ID=2, you can open it with url "/article/2-some-alias" or "/something/else/2-what-ever". Both URLs lead to the same content.
Currenlty, Open Graph Plugin will put two different URLs in "og:url" in this case, but semantically, I believe, "og:ulr" should be the same in both cases as soon as the content is the same.
This becomes a problem if you, for example, add Facebook comment widget tho the page. Widget will treat these articles as different (this is what I got from documentation, didn't check yet), and there will be two different comment lists.
If you think that current behavior is correct, I would suggest to at least add a plugin setting. That would work for me.
Anyway, thanks for the plugin - it does it's job! :)
