[Question] How to edit the social media tags helper?

Hello Publii-Team and Publii-Users!

I discovered Publii two weeks ago. It is a great software suite that I like very much. Nevertheless, there are certain sections in the source code that I would like to vary and optimise, for example the social media tags.

In the directory …input\themes\simple\partials… there is the file named head.hbs, there is the declaration {{socialMetaTags}} in line 18.

Where can I find the original source code to change the details for the Open Graph Protocol (#ogp)? How can I change the output individually? I use Windows as a platform. I have not yet found the user directory on my hard disk, where this source code can be edited.

The user manual describes this here:
https://getpublii.com/dev/socialmetatags-helper/

How can I add more elements to the #ogp output code, for example an article tag or the tag for different languages?

Thanks,
PENNULA

Hi,

Then only solution would be creation of custom helper which will extend the available helper: some example helpers can be founded here https://getpublii.com/dev/tags/custom-helpers/

But I suppose that it will be quite complicated.
