[Plugin: Sociable] Problem sharing a post to facebbok

a new news?? thanks

Sorry, due to how Facebook seems to do this, it doesn’t work.

Thanks Joostdeval, then you think that is a Facebook problem?

same exact problem. is this a facebook bug? or some config problem with my site?

it works fine sometimes, but other times i get the same thing as described above (just shows site url and page url instead of thumbnail, post title and description), so i just wait for a while then try again and it works.

any fix for this? thank you!

Facebook is now just receiving the URL parameter and ignoring anything else. Using meta tags in your site may help you.

Thanks for the info sociable. I have the meta tags and still experience the problem occasionally.

I have:
meta description
meta title
meta image_src

That’s it right?

dlawton: Please submit a URL where the problem happens for us to check.

dlawton: It’s getting the description from the description’s meta tag.

it only occurs occasionally unfortunately, so it’s difficult to test, must be a fb problem i guess
