Fallback image not showing and debugger error og:locale

    I’m using a Facebook appid (no user id) and the “force fallback” option. But that doesn’t appear to be functioning (instead I am getting images from the footer of the page).

    The page is at http://concis.io/

    The debugger says I have an error that “must be fixed”:

    Object at URL 'http://concis.io/' of type 'website' is invalid because the given value 'en' for property 'og:locale:locale' could not be parsed as type 'enum'.

    Which must be causing the problem because the proper image is there in the header information:

    <meta property="og:image" content="http://concis.io/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/concis-square-logo-i-200x200.png">

    Thoughts?

    This problem seems to have gone away if I choose a different language, such as en_GB. How can I make it work with the default English (en) locale?

    It shouldn’t have a problem honestly unless something else is messing w/ local. All the code does is switch the “en_gb” to “en_us” – it doesn’t even change the rest of it so… i’m just assuming you have another plugin or something either messing w/ that line or adding the line somewhere else in code.

    Also that image is smaller than their minimum required size but since it’s the only one on the page and you don’t have a default set in the plugin settings it’ll use it.

    What I don’t understand, then, is why (without any other changes), changing to en_gb works? So I guess some plugin is only interfering if I’m using the default (because when I looked at the debugger info before I changed the locale it was just “en” not “en_us”). I’ll have to keep testing. The workaround is fine for now.

    Confused about the image size though…your plugin text says 200×200 is the minimum and that’s exactly what the image is at:

    Yeah @fncil I don’t understand why it would do that either. In order to know you’d have to debug what’s changing it.

    As far as the size… yeah the plugin still needs to be updated because facebook changes their rules often – and well – I just haven’t updated the copy on the old version of this plugin. New version still pending couple bugs and time that I don’t have due to heavy client loads.

    For images sizes I do keep an updated list here and Facebook is currently at 600×315 minimum size.

    Awesome. I’ll report back if I figure out what was causing the locale problem! Thanks for your help (and the work in creating and maintaining this useful plugin).
