@daveteu ~ When using the Meta Templates, you’re not supposed to use static information. You use tags (provided on the settings screen) which dynamically inserts information specific to each post/page. Doing this ensures you don’t have similar or identical meta info for every page.
The Facebook sharing issue did have to do with WordPress. As I said in my previous post, I fixed the problem.
I started by removing all of my meta template data. When that caused the sharing problem to disappear, I realized it was probably a conflict between the code snippet required for the SEO Title Settings to work
<title><?php wp_title(''); ?></title>and the original Title header code. Turns out, at some point when updating my header.php file, I reintroduced the original Title code. I simply removed it, reentered my Meta Template data and I’m back in business.I think I’ve found the problem.
I removed ALL of the meta description info from the “Title Settings” page, and it seems to be working fine. There must have been a conflict concerning the meta templates.@edward Seid – I’m using Sexybookmarks Shareaholic, but I don’t think it would matter which plugin I’m using. Even when I posted the permalink manually, it didn’t show info in Facebook. My readers only have access to the permalink, so they would have the same issue no matter how they shared.
@daveteu – That would be a good workaround for the author to post on Facebook.
Thanks for helping me troubleshoot, guys. I appreciate it.
NickIt seems that Facebook has no problem retrieving the post info when I post using the WordPress shortlink. However, Facebook still is unable to pull the post info when posting the permalink.
This is an issue, as the shortlink is not available to my readers when they go to share my posts.
Yes, OpenGraph metadata has been on.
