Make link previews show article abstract #5

Closed Edearth closed 3 years ago

When sharing a link to an article, the link just shows "Nepo's blog". This leaves people with no idea what to expect when they click on the link. And it seems very unprofessional.

To do

For articles, show the abstract of that article.
For the index, you can use the description on the header

This seems like it can be done with <meta name=”description” content=”your description here” />

Other meta tags that could be interesting to have are:

<meta name="author" content="author name" />
<meta name="robots" content="index"/>
<meta name="keywords" content="keyword 1, word 2, word 3"/>
Double check you have <meta charset="utf-8"/>
