[Plugin: WordPress Connect] How to control data posted to facebook?

    hi – I LOVE this plugin – thankyou.

    My issue is when I click the Send button or Like button, I don’t like what’s showing up in title and description – the open graph data.

    1) It’s showing site title (Get Paid For Who You Are) – how do I take that out? (Note I’ve temporarily made the site title blank to take this out, but I’d like to reverse that, and just have it not show on facebook.

    2) It’s not showing the excerpt I created, instead it’s pulling content. How do I make it show the excerpt, or find another way to control the description it displays?

    3) If I have quotation marks or apostrophes in the title of the post, I see weird marks:
    It’s Not You, It’s Them! Is there a way to fix that?

    4) How can I specify a different URL? (I want to specify https://www.itsnotyouitsthem.com which is a more friendly redirect)

    Here’s the page – thanks!

    Unfortunately, it is currently not possible to change the automatically generated og meta tags – 1.) 2.)

    3.) I’ll look into this

    4.) The Like Button url can be easily changed (for individual pages/posts). Have a look at https://wp-connect.tomasvorobjov.com/docs/#plugins-position:

    basically open the post in which the like button is and on the right side in the “WordPress Connect” panel set “Like Button” to “Custom” and then simply use the [wp_connect_like_button href=””] – but you won’t be able to do this automatically for all posts/pages

    thanks very much. removing the site title globally has worked, and now it’s not pulling content, but it’s also not pulling the excerpt – mystery.
    But it looks good.
