Troubleshooting Opengraph Images on Gatsby Using React Helmet

Had some trouble getting my [web.opengraph images set up on this programming.language.js.gatsby site. They were working and all of a sudden just stopped working when I was updating other things on my site. Spent a good bit of time troubleshooting. The meta tags all showed up in the source but websites weren’t reading them.

Solution

What ultimately solved the problem was including gatsby-plugin-react-helmet in the gatsby-config.js file of my website. It was probably a dependency that wasn’t explicitly installed.
