A very primitive MyBB plugin for showing Open Graph metas for various forum modules.

Project Details

The plugin will enable forums/threads/etc. pages to show Open Graph metas for social websites integration, eg. Facebook, Discord, etc.

Upgrade Notice:
  • 0.x branch will only receive bug fixes and won't get feature updates. Plugin configuring in 0.x branch is limited which requires manual editing in the plugin file: ./inc/plugins/open_graph_metas.php. If you don't know how the plugin works, better leave all configurations as default, it'll just work.
  • Instead of manual file editing for plugin configuring, next major updates (1.x) will make plugin configurable at AdminCP.
  • Development builds for this plugin (version no. with v prefixed) tend to get changed before stable releases (version no. without v prefixed). Please use with caution that folder structure may change during version upgrades.
