When we have a language code in site URL the language code appears in share image URL and when we share the site link the shared image not appear because of the wrong URL path.

We could use the token as
[site:origin-url]/[default-active-theme:path]/share-image.png
[site:origin-url]/[default-active-theme:path]/logo.png

Origin URL [site:origin-url] The Origin URL (scheme and HTTP host) of the site. No language prefix.

Good catch. There's a patch that will likely be added to Varbase - #1088112: Introduce a token to get site's base URL to provide a token of URL without language.

Does the token [url:absolute] provide the same functionality in the patch above?

thanks, yes! I checked the patch and what I see the token `[url:absolute]` provide the same functionality of the patch provides.
the token provided the site URL without language prefix.

Project: Varbase SEO » Varbase Core

Until #1088112: Introduce a token to get site's base URL is committed, let's use a custom token. Let's call it: [site:origin-url].

I also think this should be in Varbase Core.
