I'm trying to get Facebook to show its image picker tool when a user shares a page that has multiple image choices.
I have multiple og:image meta tags defined. The site runs on http. The images are both > 200px x 200px.
I'm starting to wonder if this is just no longer available in 2016? I can't find anything anywhere on their docs site about the image picker.
Solution:
I discovered facebooks debugger is not showing the image picker, but the image picker shows on facebook.
I have a custom open graph story that allows the user to share something that they created on my site (each creation is a unique URL). I've gotten Facebook to crawl the unique URLs properly, but when the share dialog comes up, the image is cropped into a square format. If I close the share dialog and reopen it, the image is then the full sized image that is in the og:image tag.
Is there a way for me to get the full sized image the first time the share dialog opens? Many thanks.
Is there any way to do NOT display any images on FB share dialog?
I checked No Thumbnail in Debug but it doesn't affect on the page. I left meta og:image is empty for the content attribute as well.
I only want to display TEXT ONLY share dialog.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Is it possible to let a user pick which image for the "Like" post they will create when using a like button on a site? I specified multiple og:image tags and the facebook linter is correctly displaying all the images, but when I click the like button, it doesn't give the option to pick which image I'd like to use.
I am using the jQuery PrettyPhoto as an image gallery. Each image has it's own facebook-like button on the bottom of the image modal. I'd like to have the image that was liked to appear as the thumbnail on the 'user who clicked like's status update related to liking the image. (Also, I'd like the title to be unique, but I am assuming they can be changed the same way, if at all.)
As of now, the Facebook snippet seems to be scraping the gallery meta properties on load, grabbing the og:title and og:image content that is listed there. I've tried to dynamically change these values whenever a new gallery image is clicked, but it seemed to be using the values of the page loaded meta content (which makes sense).
Is there a way to change what the facebook like button sees as the image it should use on-'like'? Each gallery image is dynamically loaded on the same page, only changing the achor value per image. I've tried a number of ways with no success, but maybe someone has some experience with this or a similar issue.
Thanks for any help or leads!
As you didn't supply any example, I checked with here. As I can see they also use original like button, so the og:title and og:image should be different in each image. Instead of images, can you use html in every popup and put image, your like button etc there?
PS: Or else, you have to dynamically change the title of gallery by javascript, which is not a very idea situation. Facebook will always look for og:title for scrapping data, you can't simply feed it by custom code.
