Hi @staylor. I need your help if it is possible

Here is the case. In my React(SPA) application I have only one page that needs to be shared. And when it is shared I need to add the following meta tags to the head element:

<head>
  <meta name="description" content="some text" />
  <meta property="og:image" content="../../some-ing.png" />
  <meta property="og:description" content="some text"  />
</head>

It changes meta tags when the page mounts if I check it in the developer tools, but when I share the link to this page the image and description are not shown with a link. is it posible to implement it without SSR using react-helmet-async?

@Lenur29 I worked on this exact same issue.
IIRC, Facebook bot can sometimes "see" the updated metas from React-Helmet-Async, but not Twitter Bot.
I had to implement a conditional logic on the server for the bots.

Hello @staylor I'm using react-helmet-async. could you assist me with managing dynamic meta tags for Google's web crawler effectively.

index.html
image

page.js
import { Helmet } from 'react-helmet-async';

<Helmet
onChangeClientState={newState => {
// Add description
const metaDescription = document.querySelector(
'meta[name="description"]'
);
if (metaDescription) {
metaDescription.setAttribute('content', description || '');
}
}}
>
<title>{title}</title>
