Support » Plugin: Simple Share Buttons Adder » Facebook sharing site and not individual post

  • Thanks so much for the great plugin. I really like it and was getting ready to recommend it to all my followers when I realized that the facebook share is sharing the site link rather than the individual post. This is really important. I looked through the settings but could not find anything to change. Am I missing something? I can’t include link to my site as it is not live yet.

  • Hi,

    I do have the same problem, the sharebutton views pagelink but contains te link to the individual post. I only can see the page link, no picture etc.

    When I’m sharing from other websites its working very well on Facebook.

    The problems does not stop by taking a other plugin, I tried 30 of them.

    This is the page http://www.polennieuws.nl that has the problem.

    Kind regards

    Same problem here. I´m running WP 4.0.
    Any help?

    I found my problem was that my site was still in development mode – restricted from robots and with a maintenance mode plugin activated. Once I “went live” it showed the correct post link, but wasn’t showing the image. But I have All in One SEO installed and I set the social meta to show featured image. Now everything works great.

    Thanks Laura.
    I´ve updated SSB to 5.0, let robots index my site (it was checked) and still having the title of the site and meta description of the site when I want to share via Facebook. Image is shown correctly, but I want to display the post title and now way of make it appear. You can see here: http://eldardoenlaweb.com/blog/index.php
    BTW Laura, how did you deactivate the “maintenance mode” in the plugin?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry @backfolder, I didn’t mean to confuse you. I meant I had another plugin called Maintenance Mode installed so people couldn’t see my site until I was ready to take it live. I think that was part of my problem. Not sure why yours doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe ALL in One SEO plugin would help? Good luck!

    Thanks Laura again.
    Yes, I´ve just seen that plugin (and just downloaded and installed), my mistake. The thing is I don´t want to overload my admin panel and system with plugins, and looking the All in One SEO reviews… I´m not convinced about it could solve my problem.
