$helper->charset("") |

$helper->next("") |
Prev | null | <link rel="prev" href="" /> |
$helper->prev("") |
Canonical | null | <link rel="canonical" href="" /> |
$helper->canonical("") |
Open Graph
As mentioned, you can easily use MetaHelper
to display Open Graph information about your web page.
<?php
$ogConfig = array(
'title' => 'MetaHelper Rocks',
'type' => 'website',
'image' => array(
'url' => 'http://example.com/logo.png',
'secure_url' => 'https://example.com/logo.png',
'type' => 'image/jpeg',
'width' => '300',
'height' => '500'
)
);
$metaHelper->og($ogConfig)->view();
This would display the following meta tags:
<meta charset="UTF-8"><meta property="og:title" content="MetaHelper Rocks">
`<meta property="og:type" content="website">`
`<meta property="og:image:url" content="http://example.com/logo.png">`
`<meta property="og:image:secure_url" content="https://example.com/logo.png">`
`<meta property="og:image:type" content="image/jpeg">`
`<meta property="og:image:width" content="300">`
`<meta property="og:image:height" content="500">`
Twitter Cards
Finally MetaHelper
can also take care of Twitter Cards. MetaHelper
caters for all the different cards which Twitter Cards provide (Summery Card, Summery Image Card, Photo Card, Gallery Card, App Card, Product Card, Player Card).
Summery Cards Example
//To Create a Summery Card
$metaHelper = new MetaHelper();
$metaHelper->card('SummerCard', [
'title' => 'This is a title',
'description' => 'This is a description',
'image' => 'http://example.com/logo.png',
]
);
//You can also change individual attributes
$metaHelper->setCard()->title("A New Title");
All attribute names of all the Twitter Cards available follow the below convention:
Twitter Card Attribute Style | MetaHelper Style |
---|---|
twitter:app | $helper->app() |
twitter:app:name:googleplay | $helper->appNameGoogleplay |
The only exception is the Summery Card with Large Image where for its twitter:image:src
the normal image
attribuet is used.
Twitter Card | MetaHelper Keyword |
---|---|
Summery Card | SummeryCard |
Summery With Large Image Card | SummeryImageCard |
Gallery Card | GalleryCard |
Photo Card | PhotoCard |
Player Card | PlayerCard |
App Card | AppCard |
Product Card | ProductCard |
It is important to keep in mind that all of these meta data can be used together like so:
<?php
$metaHelper = new MetaHelper();
$metaHelper->title("Title")
->description("A description")
->card("SummeryCard", ["title"])
->og(["Title" => "title])
->view();
