Open graph description has HTML in it

When I share a post from my blog to Bluesky, the content has HTML in it.

Here’s the tag I’m using:
<meta property=“og:description” content=”<txp:excerpt />” />

Is there a way to fix this?

Maybe this:

<meta property="og:description" content="<txp:excerpt escape='tags, html' />" />

Thanks, that worked. I had tried escaping html, but not tags.

I escape textile too.

<meta property="og:description" content="<txp:excerpt escape='textile,tags,html' />" />

Hi Yiannis, I don’t think you need to escape textile in that case. To my knowledge <txp:excerpt /> tag outputs the excerpt_html field from the database. As that has already been pre-rendered as html, it won’t contain any textile.
