@vinicius73

SEOMeta::addMeta('app_id', 'xxx') returns <meta name="fb:app_id" content="xxx"> but Facebook Sharing Debugger dont accept this code.

It should be: <meta property="fb:app_id" content="xxx" />

[ozgurkaragoz]

Ok I understand. addMeta method has third parameter. Thanks @vinicius73

SEOMeta::addMeta('fb:app_id', 'xxx', 'property');

It would be nice to have it by default in the seotools config? Don't want to add this on every page.

Then you should call it from your base controller or middleware.

@J-Brk On each controller/method???!! really!!

That would solve it @J-Brk . Will give me an opportunity to understand Middleware too, not had a "need" for it until now.

@kossa all controllers extend the base controller. So if we follow @J-Brk suggestion, would only have to declare it once on the base controller and all that extend it will implement it. The alternative is middleware, which is more elegant I believe.

I still believe this is the way forward though. If we have Google/Bing Webmaster Tools, etc.. set in the config already. Its not a leap to suggest FB should be on.

When it's easy to add it in config why use Controller/Middleware? I know everything can be on middleware or base controller, but let's keep them for interesting things ;)

Personally I think it's not practical to maintain an active list of custom tags; while with a single line of code you can already easily add the custom tags you want. A good example of a short lived tag; is the one you mentioned. The fb:app_id is deprecated nowadays.
