Using keywords to populate one metadata field with the value from another


(J Stephen) #1

Hi guys,


I'm setting up an Open Graph metadata schema, and I'm using keywords to populate the defaults. This works well for, say og:title where I can use %asset_name%.



However, when it comes to og:image, I'd like to populate this with the an image url which is stored in another metadata field, namely 'Thumbnail' (our setup doesn't use the standard matrix thumbnail system). I've tried %asset_metadata_Thumbnail% - but this doesn't work.



Has anyone achieved this? Is it even possible to pull in the value of one metadata to the default of another?



Thanks!



John

See if %metadata_field_Thumbnail% works for you. I think that's the format of the special keywords that allow you to reference one metadata field form another.
