[Sahap Gezer]

[Pete Young]

The 'fb:app_id' property should be explicitly provided, Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog.

went to view the guides on set up, it says it in intuitive ? for the dumb people here ? where would one find the guide to setting this up ?

Hi all,

1. About "View Details" title: you need build the Listing Meta Title field for general category of listing type.
2. Also i've added alternative solution to the plugin and it will be available in a new version:
In file \plugins\socialMetaData\social_meta_data.tpl

Only registered members can view the code.

replace to :

Only registered members can view the code.

3. This plugin has minimum properties and the guide isn't necessary.

Hello Pete,

I'm sorry, but it's not clear.
If you mean the configs "FB:Admins" and "FB:App_id" that they are required meta tags for sharing info to Facebook.

Thanks Curtis, I can follow the ID section (second link) but the app id I am totaly lost, is there a link to the part where i need to build the app ? none of the instructions seem to be clear ?

[Pete Young]

Well done everything I can even checked my numbers in the flynax test site and it all works, my site = no picture so I guess a ticket to fix this one, and still none the wiser on creating the appb ut going by the test in flynax where i deleted that it is not needed anyway.

OK. Our developer will check your ticket.
In any case, you can try to use the Facebook Debug Tool for checking metadata in your website: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

Thank you Curtis,

I have decided that with more errors in this script than I can count on hands and toes I will try and get it the latest version updated rather than sit here and continue to find errors, so far images do not come into the page from editor in pages because it is outdated ?, the select other categories function does not work, this error in getting image for FB, the my location does not work, the locate by distance does not work, and there will probably be even more.

I just hope that it is smooth sailing and this update is done efficient and in a timely manner.

Object at URL 'http://www.mysite .com/the-library/text-books/soldiers-a-history-of-men-in-battle-18.html' of type 'website' is invalid because a required property 'og:title' of type 'string' was not provided.

I have created a app plus added id and yet still no image is working , in the tester I get the above error.

with the app it says to select a category ? is there any special category that needs selecting ?

so much for this intuitive stuff if im still here stuffing around, is there anything extra I need to add to get the picture to show, I have meta title and data no problems
