datlechin wait. Are you serious? Did you really do this? You beautiful person. I will definitely be trying this later.

datlechin

010101 Thanks for that 😍

Also there still seems to be a problem with mentions. There is a problem for mentioning, there is no problem with replys.

e.g : @mekici

not: mekici

Umutcan All issues is fixed on v0.1.3

Umutcan

datlechin This problem also exists on your forum.

Umutcan lmao 😂

Is it possible to add a favicon in front of the link header?

datlechin

Umutcan yes, I'm planning to do this too

datlechin

Umutcan there is, v0.1.4

Add a favicon before the site name

In the context of the recent GDPR discussions and transparency in general, could you consider listing the external services used in the README? I see Google servers are used to serve the favicons.

Who operates meta-grabber.herokuapp.com? It it your own app or a third-party?

Looking at the code I assume this extension also loads oembed images in the user browser without proxy?

datlechin

clarkwinkelmann sorry about that, idk
This is just temporary using
I'll switch to using PHP or JS library to get data soon
As for proxies, I don't know about this, but I'll try to find out

clarkwinkelmann I see Google servers are used to serve the favicons.

@datlechin an idea 💡 I know it would not be as “cool” but you could just remove favicons. Then you aren’t having to use that Google service. Still, one day, like you said, also using something else to get the meta data would be best. But, either way, not worrying about favicons keeps it more simple.

datlechin

I'm have updated external services used for now

datlechin

v0.1.5 @6bb55bf, v0.1.6 @d9680ae

Using PHP library to fetch open grap instead of a third-party app.

girefko

datlechin Any idea how to make the below link more visible?

datlechin

girefko Use Custom CSS

.LinkPreview-domain a {
    color: // put your color
}

datlechin

v0.1.7 datlechin/flarum-link-preview`afee215`

Now the title will show "This site cannot be reached" instead of returning an exception when the domain name is cannot reached.

010101 if a website goes down

datlechin you mean this?

Haven’t had time to install and try this yet. How is it on page load performance? I assume it has to ping the website and get the open graph data each time? Because I think the only way around that is some sort of caching or database storing just for the meta data.

010101 How is it on page load performance

I'm not sure about this, it depends on your server.

010101 Because

That's a good idea, but I don't know how to do it right now

010101

datlechin it would be difficult, I think. One option would be, as you post, it grabs the meta og image, and uploads it somewhere. Like the upload extension does. You then at least have the link’s image stored. But I don’t know how. That is still above my programming knowledge. 😳
