add og graph meta data to header

See #466 (closed)

The site has no open graph meta data, or any meta data actually.

This adds the minimum of og:graph and other meta data.

• Conditional on what is available.
• Because we don't set a description or excerpt, it truncates the first 130 characters.
• The image is pulled from the image_title set in blog posts, but ultimately we don't set a feature image of any sort of other pages, e.g., the team page.

But... we'd need to have an image setting on the default page layout, I think?

Good idea! Let me know if I can help.

Well... I don't really know this templating system, or how ours is set up. But I gave it a try.

I'd love to be able to have custom og:graph metadata, such as a featured image or a hand-written excerpt. I assume those would be custom template variables, but I couldn't figure that out yet :)

Explained it better in the MR description, I think!

As it is, at lease the pages have sensible defaults.

and if it's a blog post, things like the image_title get set

fyi - currently

Title changed from WIP: add og graph meta data to header to add og graph meta data to header

@rspeicher I feel good about the state of this change. It allows us to use the blog image for custom meta data, and it has sensible defaults. Took off the WIP!

e.g., no more "all pidge all the time" pic when we share the team page.

We can follow up by exploring customizable templates > #517
