Facebook-sharing not working fine

  • I am using Chromium (Chrome) Version 60.0.3112.78 (Developer-Build) Built on Ubuntu , running on LinuxMint 18.2 (64-Bit).

    When I’d like to share via facebook, sometimes no image, no meta description appears. The article I’d like to share via facebook only include the URL as a headline, not the headline from the article. But links directly to the article.
    This problems looks like this:

    Happens during various occassions.

    Another problem is: When I’d like to share via facebook and the window opens, I type something, everytime I do this the window tries to auto-adjust its size and moves to the right. You can’t type sometimes. Auto-adjust happens for both height and width.
    The last article was:
    https://tonguesofdestruction.de/foo-fighters-mit-neuer-single-sky-is-a-neighborhood/
    When this happened. Sometimes you need to type something more to see it happen.

    Both problems appear when using different browsers. Tested it with current version of Chrome / Chromium, Opera and Firefox. Also, the OS makes no difference happens on Windows, too.

    See the plugin’s FAQ on Facebook sharing (the 6th FAQ).

    The “All in One SEO Pack” plugin is handling your Open Graph meta tags, so you’ll want to troubleshoot that plugin. Be sure to use Facebook’s sharing debugger to invalidate pages after making changes.

    That’s completely on Facebook’s end, and probably an issue with Facebook’s JavaScript and your bleeding-edge browser.

    So, I need to add tags again just for social media / facebook? I did it, but they don’t appear in the post.I know this, because I tried it. Wasn’t sure that the plugin is woring properly when the tags didn’t appear.

    That’s completely on Facebook’s end, and probably an issue with Facebook’s JavaScript and your bleeding-edge browser.

    “Bleeding edge” – yeah, sure. I had this problem with non bleeding edge browsers as well as with them. And how should this part of your answer help me? If it’s on facebook’s end and it’s you plugin, it’s not me I could change that. ??

    This is still unanswered:

    I am still getting error messages and that’s because of the plugin.

    This time is this article:
    https://tonguesofdestruction.de/kalter-schnitt-von-andreas-franz-daniel-holbe-buchkritik/

    FB Post shows up without description, picture, headline / title etc.

    Debugger says:
    “Die Eigenschaft ?og:image“ sollte explizit angegeben werden, selbst wenn ein Wert von anderen Tags abgeleitet werden kann.”

    The “og:image” should be given precisely even though a value can be derived from other tags. The og:image appears in the article’s html and has a value.

    Further missing things: “Die folgenden erforderlichen Eigenschaften fehlen: og:url, og:type, og:title, og:image, og:description, fb:app_id”

    Meaning og:url, og:type, og:title, og:image, og:description, fb:add_id are missing, but a value is given, but clearly not transported to the facebook. This happens from time to time. And it happens with this plugin only. Any ideas?
