I've thoroughly looked for this everywhere but I've not found a solution. Forgive me if I wasn't thorough enough and that there is a post like this before.
Anyway, here's my issue:
I'm trying to remove my website name 'Posts For You' from the sharing name when I share a post from my website to Facebook. See the image below, whatever is in the red box, I want it not to be there by default. I want every post to be shared with just the post title and not including the website name before the title.
Please see this image. - This is what I want removed by default.

The images of links shared from my website disappeared from my FaceBook business page.
I have a WordPress blog.
For about a year, there was no problem: if I shared a link from my website on FaceBook, the featured image was displayed.
A month ago, two problems arose:
Most of the images of links shared from my website disappeared from
one moment to another.
If I shared a new link from my website, the
image was displayed, but as soon as I posted something again, the
image belonging to the previous post disappeared.
I asked help from a developer (I am not skilled in programming), who fixed the problem for the future, so hopefully links I share in the future won't be affected by this problem. However: I still have 50 older posts the featured image of which are not diplayed.
This is my FaceBook Page: https://www.facebook.com/izekmentesen/ Please scroll down to see there is no image displayed for older posts.
This is a recipe blog, so older posts are just as important as new ones, they will not loose their relevance.
Could anyone help me fix this issue?
I already tried these:
I tried to deactivate all plugins one by one. After each deactivation, I refreshed the cache of my website, re-fetched one of the affected links with FaceBook Object Debugger and checked if the image was diplayed on my FaceBook page. Nothing happened.
I tried to change the image (then refreshed the cache of my website, and re-fetched the link of the post with Object Debugger). This did not solve the problem either.
I set my Open Graph plugin to use the first image in the post as an og:image. (By default, it would use the featured image.) No success.
Whenever I make Object Debugger fetch a link from my website, I got this warning:
Extraneous Property: Objects of this type do not allow properties named 'og:site_name'.
The same warning is given concerning to: 'og:title', 'og:url', 'og:type',
'og:description','og:image','og:image:url', 'og:image:secure_url','og:image:width', 'og:image:height', 'article:publisher' and 'fb:app_id'.
I would really appreciate if someone could help me.
I write a blog but now nothing about programming.
Until some time ago, whenever I shared a new post on FB it chooses the first image of the post and that was fine (although I'd prefer to control which one to share every time). And it also got the title of the post correctly.
Now it always chooses the header picture of the blog and inserts the blog's title and description instead. Also, if I try to share the blog itself it chooses not the header picture but some old one from one given post...
FB debugger gives me this:
"og:image was not defined, could not be downloaded or was not big enough. Please define a chosen image using the og:image meta tag, and use an image that's at least 200x200px and is accessible from Facebook. Image 'http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vVHBaAssg-E/VdiSUEICydI/AAAAAAAAApw/Tsmhu4ZefTk/s1600/dpca%2Bblog%2Bcover%2Bv3.png' will be used instead. Consult (...) for more troubleshooting tips.
To find the object, these are the redirects we had to follow"
But the pictures in the post (or the blog's header) are in fact larger than 200x200.
I've added code as suggested in FB and bloggers tutorials but still no juice...
What's wrong?
I'm using AddThis as the sharing "platform".

thanks a lot in advance
My website (http://www.guidoleurs.org) is finished, however if I want to share and promote it on social media I come across a problem. Somehow if I want to share my static frontpage on Facebook (by copy/pasting the link in a post) I only see “guidoleurs.org” without any information or image. Also beneath every blog post I have the Accesspress Social Share buttons, but if I want to use them to share a post, the Facebook post looks like “404 not found” (although the link works) without the featured image..
How can I fix this?
I also used the debug tool of Facebook and when I paste either link from my website in, I get the following result:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fguidoleurs.org%2F2015%2F08%2F27%2Fblog-1%2F
I have an online bachelor catalog and I want people to Like a bachelor and have it appear on their FB feed.
http://gothamrfc.org/drupal/?q=2012catalog
I set up the Like button using the Social Plugins feature on FB. All bachelors are on the same page and they have anchors http://gothamrfc.org/drupal/?q=2012catalog#waldmann and the Like button refers to each anchor.
My problem is when the user clicks on Like, it posts the same picture of one bachelor, not of the one that they liked. I didn't see anything in my js file. I also added the og button but that didn't work.
How do I adjust the code so Like button corresponds to the correct photo?
I'm sure it's something simple. Thank you for your assistance.
Im having the same issue really... My current solution is to hard-code the URL of the image in the like button ref code.
The only issue with this is that it will show that image ONLY, on a blank page when someone clicks the liked image on a user's facebook page.
I'm still looking for answers since the only alternative I've found is to create individual pages for each image (each blog post, in my case) and link to THOSE pages. Not ideal and much more work than I'd like.
have a look at my blog page on my website to see what I mean: MarinePix Blog
I am using the restfb Java api (from Scala) to post to Facebook. I have two questions.
i) If you put a link in the message field of a post, it will automatically be rendered as a link. But what if you want to include link text instead of the href in the post message? Including Dude gets rendered as a string. But clearly there are many examples of things like "Hey, check out this car , where car is a link. How do you do this?
ii) Facebook is including the description of my company in each post. I set the description field to the empty String and its still showing up. I even removed the description from the settings page for my Facebook app and its still showing up. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Instead of putting the link in the message parameter, you can put it in the link parameter of your HTTP POST to the Graph API. Otherwise, it cannot be done with an inline link that has text (like what you can do with normal href's).
I don't know of a way to remove a description meta tag once it's been set. Try just a period instead of an empty string to see if that works.
