INTRODUCTION
------------

Lexicon Meta was created to help Lexicon of Sustainability editors autopopulate meta content from content links, much like the functionality seen when posting links on Facebook, e.g., a user
pastes a link in a comment, and an image and a text blurb magically appear below.

FEATURES
--------

* Content is ajax loaded from OG Meta tags found in link placed in target field
* If OG Metas are absent, module looks for alternate content to suck into target fields.
* Media module is supported in addition to default image upload widget
* Youtube and vimeo video links are supported.

REQUIREMENTS
------------

* Dependency: FileField Sources
* If video support is required: Media

INSTALLATION
------------

Install as you would normally install a contributed drupal module. See:
https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-7
for further information.

CONFIGURATION
-------------

* The configuration for lexicon_meta is found via: admin/config/lexicon-meta-fields
* Fields to target are defined via form at link above, i.e., fill these fields with the form id's (without '#')
that should be populated from external url Metas.
* The external url field (the source url for content pulling) should be a textfield.
* For image or video assets, make sure to enable the external url file option associated with the field element (provided by
FileField Sources module dependency).

ROADMAP
-------

* Enhanced Support for Media
* Standalone API
