Prompted to disable Open Graph Add-On. Lost all my custom title and descriptions
-
I logged in to my WordPress installation this morning and was prompted with:
Important: Deactivate the MashShare Open Graph Add-On. It is not longer needed and having it activated leads to duplicate open graph tags on your site. Go to Plugin Settings
I disabled the plug-in and then checked a few of my posts. I can see the new MashShare Social Sharing Options fields, but none of the data was carried across from the old plugin. Re-scraping and sharing on Facebook now gives broken titles and descriptions. That’s a catastrophic problem for a social site. So, I re-enabled the old Open Graph Add-On. All the fields are blank. I’ve lost the custom fields for hundreds of posts.
How do I get them back without spending weeks re-entering them? (inb4 restore backups – I can’t restore from a backup, as my site is a live environment, and restoring will roll back events that have happened in the intervening time.)
