[SOLVED] Social Sharing Module and Facebook

[DanKimble]

Noticed this on a customers site: When you go to share one of their products (http://www.mountainmansmokedproducts.com/sauces-seasonings/19-hot-sauce.html) on Facebook the product title comes across wrong. Where is Facebook getting the title from?

[SWcoins.com]

Could it be that the title is too long? Also, i think there have been some updates for this module is the most up to date version running? Also, I know I say this a lot but try clearing the cache in the back office. It is amazing how many problems get fixed by simply clearing the cache.

you have to define facebook open graph tags

without these tags facebook will use random conents (especially when you have no title etc.)

[DanKimble]

OK, I installed the opengraph module and verified the tags are getting created with the proper content. I cleared the cache - just to make sure.

 

This product generates the Facebook like properly: http://www.mountainmansmokedproducts.com/smoked-cheese/15-cheddar-sharp.html

 

This product doesn't: http://www.mountainmansmokedproducts.com/sauces-seasonings/19-hot-sauce.html

 

The product that doesn't work has a shorter product name so I don't think the name length is the issue.

try again

it usually needs some time for facebook to index new title etc
