The fb-open-graph.php (latest version’s file) right inside the extracted folder of the plugin is (solely) responsible for adding Open Graph meta data to the header of your site.
Below is how I’ve modified the code in the file so that it’s fit to be added to your theme’s functions.php:
/* Facebook Open Graph Markup In Header
* from /facebook/fb-open-graph.php file */
function fb_output_og_protocol( $property, $content ) {
if ( empty( $property ) || empty( $content ) )
return;
// array of property values or structured property
if ( is_array( $content ) ) {
foreach( $content as $structured_property => $content_value ) {
// handle numeric keys from regular arrays
// account for the special structured property of url which is equivalent to the root tag and sets up the structure
if ( ! is_string( $structured_property ) || $structured_property === 'url' )
fb_output_og_protocol( $property, $content_value );
else
fb_output_og_protocol( $property . ':' . $structured_property, $content_value );
}
}
else {
echo "<meta property=\"$property\" content=\"" . esc_attr( $content ) . "\" />\n";
}
}
/* Add Open Graph protocol markup to <head> */

Notes:
-
Plugin version used: 1.0.1
-
Make sure the original plugin itself is deactivated first.
-
Replace
fb_get_locale()withget_locale() -
Remove (LINE 905):
$excerpt_more = apply_filters('excerpt_more', ' ' . '[...]');And replace (LINE 906):
$desc_no_html = wp_trim_words( $desc_no_html, $excerpt_length, $excerpt_more );With this:
$desc_no_html = wp_trim_words( $desc_no_html, $excerpt_length );This fixes a bug in the plugin due to which it spurts out encoded HTML in the
og:descriptionmeta tag (see Stephen Hariss’ comment). -
Replace this (LINES 151-154):
$options = get_option( 'fb_options' ); if ( ! empty( $options['app_id'] ) ) $meta_tags['http://ogp.me/ns/fb#app_id'] = $options['app_id'];With this:
$meta_tags['http://ogp.me/ns/fb#app_id'] = 'FACEBOOK APP ID HERE';(replace FACEBOOK APP ID HERE with, well, your app ID — number)
-
I still have this plugin installed, BUT deactivated so that I can monitor updates from time to time, and make changes if necessary.
