Searching for extension that will embed a card for a link, with excerpt & image

adam42

I've just had a rummage through the forum here and am not certain what is available for my purposes. I would like posters to see Flarum grab an excerpt and an image if possible for any links they insert.

I've seen people talking about "mediaembed" and "formatter" extensions but it doesn't seem obvious that either of those are what I need. Maybe I need the visual editor installed?

If i understand u want a preview of link posted on your forum?

i'm pretty sure that this extension does not exist actually (if this is what u want)

I guess "preview" describes it, but it's often based on metatags like OG or Twitter in the HTML from the link - at least that's how Twitter does it, when it dumps a link preview into your tweet if you cut & paste a link into the tweet dialog.

I will try to integrate that into blomstra/meta in the future. It's still under development though, see https://discuss.flarum.org/d/27092-blomstra-meta-an-open-graph-and-schemaorg-extension-with-cards
