Overview
OpenGraph Fallback Embed adds a custom Gutenberg block and an auto-embed fallback that renders rich link cards using OpenGraph metadata from any URL.
Features:
- OpenGraph Embed block — Paste any URL to embed it as a styled card showing the page’s title, description, image, and site name.
- Auto-embed fallback — When WordPress can’t find an oEmbed provider for a URL pasted on its own line, this plugin automatically fetches the page’s OpenGraph tags and renders a card instead of a plain link.
- Graceful degradation — Falls back to Twitter Card meta tags, then to HTML
<title>and<meta name="description">when OpenGraph tags are missing. - Transient caching — Fetched metadata is cached for 7 days to minimise external requests.
