phpbb-ext-seo-metadata's Issues

Specific post-based metadata (direct links)

i was thinking that it would be cool to have an option for metadata derived from specific posts when a specific post is linked to.

so, for a url like this: https://www.example.com/viewtopic.php?t=20
the metadata is derived from the first post of topic 20. perfect.

however, for a url like this: https://www.example.com/viewtopic.php?t=20&p=101
this is a link referring to a specific post in that topic (post id 101).
it would be nice to have an option to enable deriving metadata from post 101 instead of the first post of topic 20.
which metadata?
use the overall topic title for title (same as the current behavior), but maybe derive the descriptions and image from the post in question (101 in this example).
and if there's no image in post 101, the fallback sequence would be: post 101 > first post of topic 20 > default overall site image

not a very important feature, but if you're looking for things to add, i think it would be cool.

Infinite loading - timeout

I've found a bug that prevent topic from displaying.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a topic and put an image from external website that keeps loading forever (returns timeout). E.g sample
  2. Turn on seo metadata extension
  3. Go to the previously created topic

Result: phpbb3 also returns timeout. 😢

There would be nice to have a feature that is trying to check out image dimensions only for like 2 or 3 seconds and give up if it doesn't work.

SVG logo is not accepted

When trying to use a svg for the JSON-LD publisher logo, the following message is received:
Invalid values for fields: Publisher logo

<meta property="og:image*> is sometimes missing on some HTTPS sites

This extension uses FastImageSize->getImageSize(), which in its turn calls @file_get_contents(), which silently fails with an SSL error "SSL operation failed with code 1..." As a result, og:image tags disappear without a trace. This doesn't happen on every server and probably depends on server config. The problem is that you use the full absolute URLs (https://etc) for local images when performing local routines like checking image dimensions etc. Please 1) make URLs absolite only in the last step, when sending them to template; 2) write to the error log when attachments that certainly exist cannot be obtained for some reason.

Example:

file_get_contents('./image.png'); // OK
file_get_contents('https://site.com/image.png'); // Fail

helper#extract_image() does not match images with query string in the URL

helper#extract_image() does not match images containing a query string in their URL. For example the following image will be ignore due to \.(?:jpe?g|png|gif)$ looking for the file extension to be the last thing in the URL: <img src="www.example.com/my-image.jpg?h=400&w=500" alt="" />.

Query strings in images src is useful when dealing with dynamically sized images and/or caching mechanisms that rely on URL params for cache expiration, so this might be something you want to consider for this extension.

It throws warnings when open_basedir is set

\phpbb\filesystem\filesystem::resolve_path() (called from \phpbb\filesystem\filesystem::realpath()) throws the following warnings when calling is_link(), is_dir() or is_file() on the server root directory, which is usually excluded (for security reasons) from the open_basedir directive.

It doesn't seems to be a bug of this extension but from phpBB's filesystem class.

https://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-15643

Warning in helper::extract_image()

The pull request #45, part of the reseased version 1.3.0, re-introduced a similar bug to #39 in the helper::extract_image() that gives the following warning.

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file [ROOT]/ext/alfredoramos/seometadata/event/listener.php on line 126: Trying to access array offset on value of type null

Error update to 1.1.0

Use ext version 1.0.0

I have Disable -> Delete data -> Delete all the files inside {PHPBB_ROOT}/ext/alfredoramos/seometadata/ -> Download on: https://github.com/AlfredoRamos/phpbb-ext-seo-metadata/releases/tag/1.1.0 -> upload & extract -> enable ext & have error

`Something went wrong during the request and an exception was thrown. The changes made before the error occurred were reversed to the best of our abilities, but you should check the board for errors.

A module already exists: ACP_SEO_METADATA`

Can you help me?

Does upgrade require complete uninstall? (bug or feat. request)

Hi,

does upgrading from a previous version requires:

  1. a complete uninstall (including deleting its data, that is the configuration) or

  2. is it enough to disable the extension, delete the files under /forum/ext/ , replace them with the new version and then enable the extension again, without the need to delete data and thus re-enter the config from scratch?

If it's true the former (1), take this as a feature request: if possible, please avoid that need, as having to re-enter the config at every update is quite inconvenient.

OTOH, if it's true the latter (2) then there's a bug in the README.md file, as in the upgrade instructions it states "Uninstall the extension" rather then "Disable the extension".

Thanks. :-)
