Possible to use filters with “My Custom Functions”?

    Trying to use the My Custom Functions to define a filter.

    I’ve tested successfully that the filter is actually called.

    
add_filter('og_image_init', 'my_og_image_init');
function my_og_image_init($images)
{
    if ( is_front_page() || is_home() ) {
        $images[] = 'https://www.example.org/myimage.jpg';
    }
    return $images;
}

    Still, even after clearing my PHP and browser cache, I see no change in the image on the resulting page.

    My question:

    Is it possible that setting filters is only supported if I really do modify the “functions.php” file, or do I have a chance to use filters through the “My Custom Functions” plug-in, too?

    Hi @uwekeim

    I put your code into wp-content/mu-plugins/og-custom-image.php and all works fine.

    I do not know plugin My Custom Functions and I’m not sure when it call custom functions.

    If this plugin called “too late” then it will be no fired in the proper moment.

    Thanks, Marcin, I’ve just tried this mu-plugins and ensured that it is called.

    Again, I do not see a changed “og:image” meta tag value on my resulting page.

    I get a feeling that I’m completely misunderstanding the concept of what the filters seem to do.

    Will try to read your documentation again now.
