Flarum SEO

sinanisler

can you update to 0.1.0-beta.13 please
cant install it.

ssh error is "Carbon 1 is deprecated, see how to migrate to Carbon 2."

clarkwinkelmann

sinanisler the carbon message is not an error, it's just a warning for Flarum developers. You can safely ignore that yellow line about Carbon.

Are there any other error in the Composer output?

sinanisler

clarkwinkelmann oh im sorry i have used update not require 😃

Update 1.3 - The extension that is extendable

Update time! This is something I had in my mind for a while: making it possible for other extensions to use the features in this extension!

Yes! That's correct. You can now use a class called \V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend to set SEO parameters and have all the benefits from the SEO extension.

So how would you use it?
Below you can find an example code. You can find all functions on the knowledge base article or on GitHub.

// You can find many more examples here: https://community.v17.dev/knowledgebase/22-extending-the-seo-extension
if(class_exists("V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend")) {
    \V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend::setTitle("New example title");
    \V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend::setDescription("This is a great description that will be 'dotted' after ");
    \V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend::setKeywords(["keyword 1", "flarum", "site", "blog"]);
    \V17Development\FlarumSeo\Extend::setCanonicalUrl("/d/5-example-topic");
    // And many more...
}

Changelog:

The extension is now ready to be extended by other extensions

JasperVriends i updated the extension but it gave an error "Something went wrong while loading the page"? Is there somewhere in the plugin files that I need to change? I don't know much about codes.

JasperVriends Unfortunately. I don't have a github account.
When I want to go back to the old version . composer require v17development/flarum-seo:1.2.1 command does not work.

JasperVriends

Forumist Thank you for reporting this issue, I'll look into it now! If you are able, can you post an issue on GitHub too?

Forumist [deleted] Could you confirm the update below fixes your issue?

Update 1.3.1 - Fixing the update

Okay, so let's explain what happened in the previous update. I tried (a bit on a hacky way) to process all the SEO properties as last function before rendering the page. Aparently it worked well on localhost and on my production forums without any issues, but it didn't on some other production forums.

Therefore I've now updated the position when the ->finish() function is called. The extender (Extend.php) has left untouched and will still work for other extensions to extend SEO. It might be that, in situations when the SEO extension was called earlier then other extensions, the SEO extender isn't processed (the reason is that it was already processed and the tags have been written to the page).

I'm not very satisfied with reverting some code, so I'll try to open a PR into for the Flarum core later this week to make sure an event fires after all the other extensions are finished updating the content of the webpage. Hopefully it will be merged into BETA 14 and the previous SEO update has its full potential in this version 🙂 There is an issue from someone also having the same issue: flarum/core2239

Changelog:

Fixed v17development/flarum-seo34 . The description was set as headline. Also added a parameter to the setTitle API and removed a parameter from and setDescription in Extend.php
Reverted some code because it was breaking on some forums 🙁

Any way to ad alt tags to images uploaded using the upload Exstension?

clarkwinkelmann

MikeJones wouldn't this be a feature that should be part of Upload itself? It seems like the "Complete image preview template" indeed doesn't any ability to have alt/label values right now, but this could be added. Using a custom template to insert the image as markdown or bbcode would also be an option, and would give access to the alt and title attributes.

MikeJones

clarkwinkelmann maybe I will suggest it on the upload Exstension page

Hi!

Can I suggest that you set the meta tag for Twitter to summary_large_image instead of just summary? That way I can have a big image on the Twitter feed when linking a post.

I made the change in the code myself, line 202 on file Listeners/PageListener.php and it works perfectly!

->setMetaTag('twitter:card', 'summary_large_image');

Or maybe make it an option? It looks much better on Twitter with the large image.

Thanks 🙂

MikeJones

malago that is an awesome idea!

MikeJones

malago more on this it looks like google wants a max image tag and that will help get us crawled more for the discover tab on android.

I made a thread about an issue I found here: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/25154-google-search-console-error-answer-should-be-specified

I wasn't sure at the time if it was Extention or Core, so that's why it's in a separate thread. Not a critical issue, but a useful one to have fixed.

I'm hoping this extension is in the process of updating to beta 15. Please consider fixing this. 👍
