Otherwise, sharing on Facebook is super boring:

Can we make the title, site name, url, image, and description vary with the content of the page? So a candidate's profile passes different info than a contributor's?

tdooner commented 9 years ago

@evanwolf Not easily. The meta tags are rendered as part of the page by the backend, but only the JS knows about how to fetch data for the candidate you're viewing and actually change the displayed page.

Eventually I imagine we'll want to revisit how we do this, because our JS-only approach currently results in us having extremely poor SEO. But this will be a pretty massive change.
