Wordpress-seo: Feature Request: Per Post Type Fallback Images

[mathetos]

Would love to be able to set the FB Image Fallback per Post Type rather than simply globally. See attached.

I think the balance of complicating UI to edge case makes it not worth it. Able to control it with filter as necessary already.

@omarreiss do we want to consider this?

[mathetos]

Do you have some documentation on the filter and its usage available? I'd be interested in going that route. Didn't know it was available.

[Rarst]

Documentation? We... might. Somewhere. :)

From quick look it should pass through wpseo_opengraph_image, so at that point you can check for default and swap as necessary.

USE CASE

We would use it for our kb section on our website. Where we would set a default social image that sends different message then "general" default social message.

Wow... reviving an old issue here. I'm still a fan of this feature request. For many sites each post type is a very different kind of content and having a UI for setting these would help them a lot.

Instead of just listing out ALL the CPTs automatically, it could be a repeater field. Basically have the UI like above for Global, then have a single repeater field that says "Set for Post Type", they choose which post type should have a unique image and then upload/choose the image. That way the default for all post types is still the Global, the UI is clean, and you still have the flexibility to set per post type.

@hedgefield please take this one into account in our settings redesign.
