I wonder if this should be moved into the Google Plus submodule instead of being part of the main module? Hrm.

This adds it as a Google Plus meta tag.

What do you think Dave? Put it in the Google Plus submodule and then update the D7 branch, or put it in the main branch even though it's really only for Google Plus?

Hello,

before the update to metatag-7.x-1.18 the publisher entry looked like this:

<link rel="publisher" href="https://plus.google.com/our_profile/" />

after the update it looks like this:

<link itemprop="" content="https://plus.google.com/our_profile/" />

Is this correct?

I've seen the hint about editing the html.tpl.php of the theme. I had to ask the author of the theme, because the example in the readme.txt of the google+ submodule looked differently.

In the theme it looked like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<!--[if lt IE 7]> <html class="ie ie6" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]> <html class="ie ie7" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]> <html class="ie ie8" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if gt IE 8]> <!--> <html class="" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?>"> <!--<![endif]-->

and according to the author it should be like this now:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<!--[if lt IE 7]> <html class="ie ie6" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?><?php print $schemaorg; ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>    <html class="ie ie7" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?><?php print $schemaorg; ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>    <html class="ie ie8" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?><?php print $schemaorg; ?>"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if gt IE 8]> <!--> <html class="" lang="<?php print $language->language; ?>" dir="<?php print $language->dir; ?><?php if ($language->dir == 'rtl'){ echo "rtl"; } ?><?php print $schemaorg; ?>"> <!--<![endif]-->

I've made the change, but there wasn't any change in the resulting display of the publisher tag. It sill look as mentioned above, which doesn't look correctly to me, because the readme.txt of the Google+ submodule says:

The following Google+ tags are provided:

* itemprop:name
* itemprop:description
* itemprop:image

and none of these is set in my case.

Any idea what is going wrong?

There's a fix in the current -dev release for this bug, it'll be in the next stable release.

I've installed the version "metatag-7.x-1.19" now and am wondering, if it's correct, that the publisher entry looks as it did before the update to "metatag-7.x-1.18", i.e.:

<link rel="publisher" href="https://plus.google.com/our_profile/" />

I thought it should looke like this now, after it was moved to the Google+ sub-module:

<link itemprop="name" content="https://plus.google.com/our_profile/" />

i.e. that the update would fix the missing itemprop tag.

Just want to be sure, if the first code is correct or not.

@tr-drupal: No, you still use the "Publisher" meta tag, it was just moved to the "Google+" group instead of the "Advanced" group, and its output is exactly the same as it used to be (excluding the bug in 1.18 where it was broken).
