Fallback Chain

OG tag values are resolved in this order:

  1. Custom OG data -- per-article/menu/category overrides set in the editor
  2. Page metadata -- Joomla page title, meta description, article images
  3. Site-wide defaults -- Default OG Title, Default OG Description, Default Image from plugin config

This ensures every page always has OG tags, even without any manual configuration.

Per-Content OG Fields

When editing an article, menu item, or category, you will see a MokoJoomOpenGraph tab with:

  • OG Title -- Custom title for social sharing
  • OG Description -- Custom description for social sharing
  • OG Image -- Custom image (uses Joomla media picker)
  • OG Type -- article, website, product, profile, book, music, video
  • SEO Title -- Custom page <title> override
