I'd like my postings on FB to reflect the exact page on my site. By the look of it, it looks like a generic link to my site without the help of images from the page nor the exact title. Any ideas that can help?
Thanks.

sorry if this is a silly question, but how are you posting it to FB? |
It really don't matter, this has been talked about so many times; did you try searching for the answers? ManOfTeal.COM a Proud UNA site, six years running strong! |
It really don't matter
so are they all the same then? because the one i use posts the image from the page and a direct link to the page that i'm sharing from |
Yep, I already discussed it here: http://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/Forum-Topic-AddThis-Title-Issue.htm
Going by the screenshot, it's the same thing (regarding Forums). The problem seems to be with JUST Facebook. You can add config lines to the 'addthis' code, but it gets ignored by FB. From what I have read so far, seems FB gets the shared information by 'scraping' the page for meta-tags. With that said, and if thats true, there would have to be a way to include meta-tags that will somehow automatically be able to get the forum topic's title and NOT the forum's default (Recent Topics :: Orca Forum)
I have yet to figure this out. Nothing to see here |
