Open Graph metadata

og:locale

Sets the locale of the Open Graph metadata in language_TERRITORY form. The default is en_US.

Code examples

Good example
<meta property="og:locale" content="en_US">
English as used in the United States.
Good example
<meta property="og:locale" content="fr_FR">
French as used in France.
Avoid this example
<meta property="og:locale" content="en-GB">
Open Graph uses an underscore here, so write en_GB.
Avoid this example
<meta property="og:locale" content="">
An empty value is not a locale. Omit the property to use the en_US default.

Recommendations

  • 01
    Use Correct Locale Format
    Use a language code, an underscore, then a territory code, such as en_GB.
  • 02
    List Available Alternates
    Add one og:locale:alternate property for each other locale in which the page is available.
