Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Social Media Card Generator creates branded Open Graph/social sharing images directly from the WordPress post editor. Choose a background template, configure your typography, generate the card, and save it automatically to the WordPress Media Library.

1-compatible title synchronization and backwards-compatible editor behavior.

Features

  • Generate social sharing images from the WordPress post editor.
  • Use a custom Media Library image as the card template.
  • Configure title and description fonts independently, with one-click controls to return either layer to bundled Open Sans.
  • Upload administrator-only TrueType (.ttf) fonts without enabling arbitrary font uploads across the Media Library.
  • Adjust font size, text color, vertical position, and left/center/right alignment.
  • Configure an optional text shadow; it is disabled by default.
  • Save generated cards as JPEG or PNG Media Library attachments.
  • Set JPEG quality.
  • Show a success message with the generated filename after saving.
  • Optionally set the generated card as both the AIOSEO Facebook and Twitter/X custom image when a compatible AIOSEO version is active.
  • Remember the AIOSEO social-image checkbox preference separately for each WordPress user.
  • Render locally with PHP GD; no remote rendering service is required.

The default typography matches the plugin’s previous hardcoded card style: title color #F0F8FF, description color #E0E0E0, and no text shadow.
