Is it me?

I don't see any og: tags (og:image, og:description, etc) on pages using category view.

Am I missing the obvious?
Hey there,

Currently, there is no open graph tag for single category view.

I will log this into our issue tracker.

Thank you, sir.

If I can suggest - add an image field to the category configuration to be used for og:image - using the avatar is NOT always the best idea, especially with sizing issues. What's proper size for an avatar is usually not the right aspect ratio for facebook. Having a separate image would go a long way towards making shares work right.

Indeed, having og:image overrides for all views would be even more useful! Facebook has their particular size issues that rarely align with other image uses. Making it separate eliminates having to make workarounds.

Hey Benjamin,

Open graph tag for single category view is already available from EasyBlog 5.4.9 onwards.

Just for your information, I have locked and marked this thread as resolved to avoid confusion in the future. Please start a new thread if you have any other issues in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiries.

Thanks for understanding.
