I am trying to use the facebook share button for which I want to dynamically set the title, description and image using the meta tags
<meta property="og:title" content="title" /> <meta property="og:description" content="description" /> <meta property="og:image" content="thumbnail_image" />
This is the same question :
Zend framework: Meta property integration
I have tried doing what was suggested – but its not working
This is what I've implemented in my layout.phtml
<?php
$doctypeHelper = new Zend_View_Helper_Doctype();
$doctypeHelper->doctype('XHTML1_RDFA');
echo $this->doctype();
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/">
<head>
<?php echo $this->headMeta();?>
</head>
Then in my views, I try setting the meta property as
<?php $this->headMeta()->setProperty('og:title', 'my article title');?>
But this code wont execute and i'm getting an error when the view is rendered – something along the lines of
Invalid value passed to set; please use setMeta() C:\webserver\apache\htdocs\dezyre\trunk\library\Zend\View\Helper\HeadMeta.php(164): Zend_View_Helper_HeadMeta->set(Object(stdClass))
Any idea, whats wrong here
Thanks for your help

There is a hidden treasure in the view helper in the _isValid() method
Unfortunately the error message you'll get is only to "please use setMeta()". The follow either in your controller or view should fix this problem.
