Pinterest Rich Pins, using WordPress SEO Open Graph Meta?

  • I’m trying to validate my rich pins on pinterest, but I’m getting “We were unable to retrieve any data from your URL.”

    I’ve been reading some documents online and it says to activate “Add Open Graph meta data” in the WordPress SEO -> Social tab, which I did.

    Not sure if this is related, anyone else having issues with Rich Pins validation?

    I noticed the meta tags are in the <body>, and not in <head>? This may be the issue, but why is it not in <head>?

    Thanks

    Any news on how to fix this? I’m experiencing the same problem.

    Hey there,

    Yeah it was one of my plugins that was messing everything up. I forget which one…

    I would love to know, as I’ve recently lost my Rich Pins. I’ve tried disabling Plug Ins, but nothing has helped. Please let me know, if you remember which one stopped it.

    You might want to update to version 1.7 that was released this morning…

    Added several new tools (Pinterest Rich Pins, HTML Validation, CSS Validation, Google PageSpeed), props bhubbard

    Cant find any of the new tools after update?!

    I’m getting the same “We were unable to retrieve any data from your URL” message when trying to validate my blog for rich pins.

    I have the Yoast SEO plug-in installed and activated and have ticked the “Add Open Graph meta data” in the WordPress SEO -> Social tab. My WordPress is up to date…

    Any suggestions?

    Same here! My rich pins used to work, but now they went back to regular and, when i try to validate it, i have the same “We were unable to retrieve any data from your URL.”

    One other suggestion related to rich pins for Pinterest,
    On each post under “WordPress SEO by Yoast” advanced tab, can support for disabling rich pins be added?

    This way certain posts won’t be a rich pin by default in Pinterest.
    If person’s pinterest account has enabled Rich Pins, they are on by default for all, only way to turn off is with <meta name=”pinterest-rich-pin” content=”false” /> in the head section.
    Reference: https://developers.pinterest.com/rich_pins_overview/

    Would be great to have this functionality to disable a rich pin per post.

    broken here too… any scoop on this yet??

    Has anyone had any resolution to this problem. I’m having the EXACT same problems. I’ve done everything I have found to do and still “missing info from my URL.” Contacted my webhost, Pinterest AND Yoast and not had any help. If anyone knows what to do I will be eternally grateful for any input or help!!!
