    I have this problem on Fb:

    Meta with name instead of property: The meta tag on the page was specified with name ‘author’, which matches a configured property of this object type. It will be ignored unless specified with the meta property attribute instead of the meta name attribute.

    Have you got any idea how to solve? Thanks so much 🙂

    Uuuh! and checking in google, it’s say:

    Advertencia: Missing required field “entry-title”.
    Advertencia: Missing required field “updated”.
    Advertencia: Missing required hCard “author”.

    For the Facebook issue, you have some duplicate author meta tags on your page at http://yeow.com.ar/2012/11/arrestado-hombre-por-pensar-en-sexo.html :

    <meta name="author" content="Nahuel Sanchez"/>
    <meta property="article:author" content="http://yeow.com.ar/author/Yeow/" />

    The second meta tag is from NextGEN Facebook OG and is in the correct OG format for Facebook. The first is from something else (and SEO plugin perhaps?), and this is the one Facebook is complaining about.

    You can leave them both there – Facebook is only warning you about it. You could also remove the first tag, or disable the second tag from the NextGEN Facebook OG settings page.

    I’d leave the NextGEN Facebook OG meta tag, since it is in the correct format for Facebook. 😉

    The warnings you are getting from Google are not for the Facebook OG tags, but other tags in your content which may — according to Google — be incomplete. Support for other microformats, like the hCard http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard mentioned, is outside the scope of NextGEN Facebook OG’s target functionality.

    Thanks,

    js.

    Yes, you are right.
    The meta:

    <meta name=”author” content=”Nahuel Sanchez”/>

    Come for before I install NextGEN Facebook OG (I put manually some time ago) and I don’t know I must not have the two metas at the same time.

    I remove the first.

    Thanks so mucho for your help and search in my source code.
    Thanks a lot. If I can help you with something, please contact me.

    Best Regards!
