    Check the URL for errors in the Facebook URL debugger.

    If you change the URL of the post, such as changing the post slug from puppy-bunny to puppy-kitten, then you may have likes submitted against multiple URLs.

    Hi Niall,

    Thanks for your reply, I test blog’s homepage and all is ok except:

    Errors That Must Be Fixed
    Circular Redirect Path Circular redirect path detected (see ‘Redirect Path’ section for details).

    I have three warnings too:

    Inferred Property The ‘og:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.

    og:image should be larger Provided og:image is not big enough. Please use an image that’s at least 200×200 px. Image ‘http://i2.wp.com/d3uymmce12kjec.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/sindrome-postvacacional-marihuana.jpg?resize=700%2C525’ will be used instead.

    – Mismatch og:url and canonical url og:url tag in the header is not the same URL as rel=’canonical’ link in the html.

    I also checked one post page but no errors showed.

    Would you please let me know how I can solve the error, and if you have some for the warnings will be welcome too 🙂

    Kind regards.

    Yep, the URL errors will cause problems.

    An example of a possible circular redirect path:

    • The post page is accessible at something like /2013/10/my-post/
    • WordPress reports your post permalink is something like /?p=123 and that value is used in the Facebook for WordPress plugin to output an og:url value for the page and set the href target for the Like Button.
    • Facebook requests the /?p=123 URL, which redirects to /2013/10/my-post/, which asks Facebook to use /?p=123 instead, and the cycle continues.
