Hello nkinkade,
Thank you for reporting that. I appreciate you wanting to help and even sending patch of your codes.

rather than doing this ([a-zA-Z0-9]+)@i
you could do this ([a-z0-9]+)@i
because i, (…)@i here means ignore case

but still your code will not match this youtube link
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7lc1UVf-VE

because it has “hyphen”, sometimes videoId has hyphens and other non-alphanumeric characters.

I’m running unit tests and a bunch of html code combinations and I think they all still work fine.
Could you send me the actual HTML Codes in your post that you encountered this?

Thanks mate

I think you could do it through

Awesome! Good that you got it sorted out.
FB caches your page for some time so you need to wait a while to try again.

I would then request you change the “1 star” you put, so it wouldn’t confuse other new users of the plugin

Thanks mate.

I’ll mark this topic now as resolved

I tried on my other sites and it does WORK.

See this screenshot

Thing you could take a look:

1. Are you sure the plugin is still activated on your site?
2. Maybe your server disabled CURL so wp_remote_get() doesn’t work?

I think your site doesn’t support CURL or getting content from “other sites” which is common to a lot of webhosts.
Are you on a shared hosting, can we know which hosts you use?

I’m going to reply to your other “double post” to get this sorted out.
Kindly reply on your other post:

I hope to get your mind changed about that “1 star” review you are giving. The issue might only be because of your server.

Hey buddy,

Thank you for using the plugin.
I’m glad you have solved the issue, and kudos for solving it yourself ??

If you haven’t done yet, I urge you to give the plugin a 5 star rating/review.

Yes, because FB is caching your pages so we’ll need to wait for the older ones to get cleared out

alright keep me posted ??

It would be FB’s end. they do change a lot of things and break things along the way (their motto is breaking right?)

yes that has been there before. I think around early of 2012

If you dont use a plugin, FB may use a big photo from your sidebar
like this for example

Hello,

The FB cache have changed,
and yes it must be at least 200×200, sorry that I forgot to mention that.
Make it bigger and lets try again.

If you use All-in-one SEO pack to generate description, you could just uncheck my checkbox for the description if you want.

Perhaps you don’t have a cache on your server.

But the generated code from your site should now be correct,
your new posts should have the correct thumbnails.

I’m still waiting for FB to clear out their cache,
Will let you know when they have done so.

Hi Adams,
I think I should close this thread up as its not an issue anymore.

Thank you so much for using the plugin before and reporting in here

its not immediately reflected.
You cleared your cache on your server right?

Let’s wait around 24 hours and check again.
FB should refresh their cache then
