Social share doesn’t pick up Pinterest formatted image.

Hello there @yondermann

This is happening because there’s no such functionality in Hustle actually, to find such attributes on images. I can see that this was requested in the past though, so I’m adding your request in our internal issue tracker as it could promote it a specific update cycle. ??

That would be great as currently only the featured image and the site logo shows up when the pinterest button is clicked on.

As I was testing this feature I manged to pull up a couple of other images too upon clicking the pinterest button but I have no idea why that happened. I have quite image heavy posts but actually don’t want them to show up there at all as those are not pinterest formatted.

Hello @yondermann ,

Thank you for the additional information. We will also pass it to the developers in regards to this improvement.

kind regards,

Hi again,

I’ve just updated the plugin and tested the plugin and found out why some images are not showing when I click on the pinterest share button.

I lazy load the images with w3 cache plugin and it seems that until the images aren’t loaded on the page the pinterest sharing pop up not showing them.

Is there a way to make them show up in the plugin without loading them all to the page?

Hello there @yondermann

The page URL you’d shared isn’t working anymore, so I don’t really understand the issue 100%, but as this is a lazy-loading issue, could you try to exclude these images from lazy-loading, as long as the W3 plugin provide this option?

Are we talking about the images coming from a Social Sharing module of Hustle?
Please advise!

If you could re-build a testing page to share, it’d be great! ??

Thank you,

Hi,

The link should be working now. There was a problem with hosting in the past couple of days but you can check any post. The same thing happens.

I can not exclude these images as these images are the very reason I use lazy load. This is a recipe site and all steps have an image added to them.

I don’t know if excluding only one image could be an option but that would be really inconvenient to apply to all present and future posts.

Yes, we are talking about the social share module of Hustle.

Hi @yondermann

Thanks for response!

I’ve visited the linked page and I must say that I’m still a bit confused with that.

Upon hovering over any of the images, I don’t see any Pinterest sharing icon but I do see the one from Hustle (as a “floating bar”). When I clicked on Pinterest icon there to share I got a sharing screen with multiple images, like this:

Is this correct or it’s missing something there? If it is missing something – what exactly/which images?

Please advise!

Best regards,
Adam
