Add support for sharing participant pages to social media sites #1

Closed thzinc closed 5 years ago

thzinc commented 5 years ago

Most social media sites can make "cards" from links that are shared. It would be nice to support this functionality when sharing a participant page on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. The _layouts/default.html should be updated to support this.

Sample participant page: http://syncromatics.engineering/hacktoberfest2018//participants/daniel.html Facebook guide: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/webmasters/ Twitter guide: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/tweets/optimize-with-cards/guides/getting-started.html LinkedIn guide: https://www.linkedin.com/help/testing/answer/46687/making-your-website-shareable-on-linkedin?lang=en

I think we actually want something more like this for twitter: https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/embed-twitter-feed

The "cards" are for creating content that shows up as a card on Twitter.

@stevenmwhite, I was actually thinking about making the participant pages sharable as cards on Twitter. I'm also cool with adding an optional timeline to the participant page.

Ah! It's late... I see. I read that wrong. Cool, well I guess that's why this is open source, new ideas all around!
