## Description

ogCover Generator creates OG images for posts and pages and injects them into social
meta tags.

Main features:

 * Generate OG images on save/publish for posts and pages.
 * Regenerate a single post/page from the editor sidebar.
 * Run bulk sync for already published content.
 * Use separate template IDs for posts, pages, and homepage.
 * Inject og:image and twitter:image tags in page head.

You need an active ogCover account and API key.

### External services

This plugin connects to the ogCover API (https://ogcover.io) to generate Open Graph
images.

When you trigger image generation (automatic on post save, manual from the editor,
or bulk sync), the plugin sends the following post/page data to https://ogcover.
io/api/generate:

 * title
 * excerpt/content snippet
 * author name
 * publication date
 * category and tag names
 * estimated reading time
 * site name and tagline
 * featured/content image URL

No data is sent unless image generation is explicitly triggered. Generated image
files are stored in your WordPress uploads directory.

 * Terms of Service: https://ogcover.io/terms
 * Privacy Policy: https://ogcover.io/privacy
