    Hi,

    I did read the sticky on this subject but haven’t solved my problem. Basically when I use the Facebook share button I get no image or text preview other than my home page URL.

    The debugger for my most recent post URL returned:

    “Warnings That Should Be Fixed
    Could Not Connect To Server
    Check that the webserver is running, and that there are no firewalls blocking Facebook’s crawlers.
    Missing Required Property
    The ‘og:type’ property is required, but not present.
    Inferred Property
    The ‘og:url’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
    Share App ID Missing
    The ‘fb:app_id’ property should be explicitly provided, Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog.”
    Inferred Property
    The ‘og:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.”

    I’m not using any other plugin like Open Graph. I can’t think of anything I did to trigger this change, I’ve always just used Yoast SEO for this purpose.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. If it could involve the Facebook Admin ID, can you help direct me what I need to update?

    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Hi Chris,

    It does seem like two sets of Open graph tags are being generated, one by Jetpack and another by Yoast SEO – both could have been activated after an update.

    Could you please try disabling the ones generated by Yoast SEO by going to “Yoast SEO > Social > Facebook’ and disabling the Open Graph tags option? It may also be a good idea to disable the ‘Twitter Card’ meta tags as well under the ‘Twitter Option’

    Let me know how this goes.
