Add facebook image metatag to layout.phml

Wed, 16 Jul 2014 14:39:42 +0000

Hello, this is and update to my older question:

http://www.seotoaster.com/questions-and-answers/851/facebook-image-metatag

I managed to insert facebook image metatag directly in the /seotoaster_core/application/layouts/scripts/layout.phtml file;
however, it looks like I can't get the $page:url value in it. The tag renders ok, but no image file name... Can you please help me out?

Here's the code with the minor change I made ( look for Facebook image meta to find the added tag):

<?php echo $this->doctype(); ?>





<html lang="<?php echo $this->htmlLang; ?>">

    <head>
<?php echo $this->headMeta()->setIndent(8); ?>

        <?php echo $this->headTitle(); ?>

        <?php
        // link and script block start
        //adding canonical link

        $this->headLink()->setIndent(8)
            ->prependStylesheet($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/external/fancybox/jquery.fancybox.css')
            ->prependStylesheet($this->websiteUrl . 'system/css/seotoaster-ui.css');

        $this->headLink()->headLink(array('rel' => 'canonical', 'href' => $this->canonicalUrl), 'PREPEND');

        if (Tools_Security_Acl::isAllowed(Tools_Security_Acl::RESOURCE_PAGE_PROTECTED)) {
            if (empty($this->bodyTag)) {
                $this->headLink()
                    ->prependStylesheet($this->websiteUrl . 'system/css/seotoaster.css')
                    ->prependStylesheet($this->websiteUrl . 'system/css/reset.css');
            } else {
                $this->headLink()
                    ->prependStylesheet($this->websiteUrl . 'system/css/seotoaster-reset.css');
            }
        }

if (isset($this->minify) && $this->minify === true) {
echo Tools_System_Minify::minify($this->headLink(), false);
} else {
echo $this->headLink();
}

$this->jQuery()
            ->uiEnable()
->addJavascriptFile($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/external/fancybox/jquery.fancybox.js')
->addJavascriptFile($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/external/jquery/plugins/mousewheel/jquery.mousewheel.min.js')
->addJavascriptFile($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/external/jquery/plugins/cookie/jquery.cookie.js')
->addJavascriptFile($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/external/smoke/smoke.min.js');

        $this->headScript()->setIndent(8)->setAllowArbitraryAttributes(true)
->prependFile($this->websiteUrl . 'system/js/internal/system.min.js');

        echo $this->jQuery();
if (isset($this->minify) && $this->minify === true) {
echo Tools_System_Minify::minify($this->headScript());
} else {
echo $this->headScript();
}
        // link and script block end
// Facebook image meta
echo '<meta property="og:image" content="'.$this->websiteUrl.'previews/'.$this->page->url.'.png" />';
echo $this->placeholder('misc');
echo isset($this->placeholder('seo')->seoHead) ? $this->placeholder('seo')->seoHead: '';
?>

</head>
<?php echo !empty($this->bodyTag) ? $this->bodyTag : '<body>'; ?>
<?php echo isset($this->placeholder('seo')->seoTop) ? $this->placeholder('seo')->seoTop: ''; ?>
<?php echo $this->layout()->content; ?>
<?php echo isset($this->placeholder('seo')->seoBottom) ? $this->placeholder('seo')->seoBottom: ''; ?>
<input type="hidden" id="website_url" value="<?php echo $this->websiteUrl; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" id="current_theme" value="<?php echo $this->currentTheme; ?>" />
<?php if(isset($this->sculptingReplacement)): ?>

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">$(function() {var sculptingReplacement = <?php echo $this->sculptingReplacement; ?>;$.each(sculptingReplacement, function() {$('span.' + this.id).replaceWith(this.repl);})});</script>

<?php endif; ?>

        <?php
            /**
             * Plugins additional content
             */
            echo $this->placeholder('plugins');
        ?>

    </body>
</html>
