How to set first post in discussion as page meta description?

daggeto

Hi. I already found that description is not set in DiscussionController and in WebAppView setter does not exists that sets description.
How to override these classes?

daggeto You may want to change the core code to fix this issue and make a PR to flarum/core . The description should probably be set when the discussion is created and when the first post, main post, is edited.

My suggestion is to add to WebAppView

    public function setDescription($description)
    {
        $this->description = $description;
    }

And to DiscussionController:

protected function getView(Request $request)
{
...
$view->setDescription($posts[0]->attributes->content);
...
