In reply to: [WP Facebook Open Graph protocol] Any way to only show the featured image?I know, dude. But in most cases, the BookFace lets you choose… not sure why LI doesn’t. Dumb.

In reply to: [WP Facebook Open Graph protocol] Any way to only show the featured image?No kidding. I really can’t stand the BookFace.
Here’s an oddity. We post a featured image and then 2 or 3 small inline images and I’ve specified the “fallback” image (here’s today’s post: http://blog.contatta.com/forwarding-is-backward-thinking/572 )… Because of the order the OG markup is going in — fallback first and featured last — LinkedIn (who must be piggybacking on the OG markup) is grabbing the first image (the default), with no way to scroll through the array. So we never get the featured image.
At least FB gives you the ability to scroll though and choose. (I’m guessing from what you said that FB used to weight the final image as the one to use… but now they’re using the first one unless you change it?)

In reply to: [JM Twitter Cards] Seems to be a compatibility issue with Genesis?I solved it a different way. I installed the WP Facebook Open Graph protocol plug in to create my OG markup (which I needed to do anyway) and now my featured image is available again. Thanks for your help. 🙂

In reply to: [JM Twitter Cards] Seems to be a compatibility issue with Genesis?First the image was showing, but at the small size of the defined Twitter image size (the fallback, not the size defined in the dropdown). But I had checked the box to add my OG markup with the twitter card. So I unchecked that box.
At that point, all the other images on my page are available, but not the Featured image I want. (You can see it by running this URL through the Object debugger from FB: http://blog.contatta.com/the-art-of-making-contact/556 )
I’ve tried removing the fallback size of the Twitter image… but that doesn’t affect it now that it’s not creating the OG markup. Very confusing. My twitter cards look nice though. 😉

In reply to: [JM Twitter Cards] Descriptions MissingYes, this is what happens to me too. If I have an image as the very first part of my post, the description field just doesn’t show up in the Twitter cards.
We also have some custom code we add (just a couple divs with classes) that hold an image and start some of our posts. This also makes the description fail. It only works if the post starts with words only.
