== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= What is link preview data? =

Link preview data includes metadata like title, description, and image that
websites provide to create rich previews when shared on social media platforms.

= Does this work with any URL? =

The URL must have [link preview metadata](https://ogp.me/) for the plugin to
display rich data. If no link preview data is available, the block will show
basic link information.

= Is this compatible with my theme? =

Yes, this plugin works with any theme that supports Gutenberg blocks.

= Can I customize the card appearance? =

The card styling is designed to work well with most themes. Future versions may
include customization options.
