My web site www.jeancharlesbarthelet.com has good meta . (I checked)
When I tried to share on Facebook, there is no image, no description.
I tried one hundred times the debug tool !! (for one month)
Nothing works.
I am very worried because lots of people are sharing my news at this time..
Thanks for help.
You should try and show some code examples....
However, with that said, it may be a caching issue with your images and their server.
I did see that the path to the image (http://www.jeancharlesbarthelet.com/autre/logo.jpg) does serve up the image correctly. Perhaps revisit thie tomorrow?
When did you upload it to your server? if your hosting company uses akamai to cache it could take up to 6 hours to be seen globally...

Please look at the result Facebook scrape my website:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/echo?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.caominhblog.com%2F.
My website is http://www.caominhblog.com.
When I share it on Facebook, or share it via plugin, it always show these weird characters. It seems that Facebook debugger cannot read all of my header.
I can't find the solution for this.
Could you tell me how can I fix it?
Many thanks
I find the solution. It causes by W3 Total Cache - Disk Enhanced Mode. I simply turn it in to Basic Mode and everything work fine.
Best.
For some reason the object debugger displays all the data that I want to share with no issues but the share dialog fails to display the image. I have searched the site looking for answers and most of the solutions recommend clearing the browser cache. I've done this countless times but I still cannot make the share dialog display the image.
According to the open graph specs my image is valid so I do not know what the hell is going on.
How could I approach this? Should I report it as a bug to Facebook?
Is it because my image is not a square?
I have been testing this in a QA environment so it is not because of localhost.
Thanks!
I run a Wordpress blog. Here's the URL to our main page: http://theoriginalsocitey.com
For some reason, when links to posts on our site are shared, the featured image is not correctly detected. When I put a link to a post through the Facebook debugger, some of the usual minor errors come up that do for all sites, including those that work perfectly. I've tried fixing the "tags in body" error with success, but it didn't fix the problem, so it is not the issue.
All other OG tags are displaying correctly, just the og:image has the issue. The debugger even acts like it knows what image to use, but refuses to do so. It will say the correct image but say "the image is not large enough" when it clearly is, for all posts.
Can someone please help me figure this out? It's been days of countless different attempts of fixing this including plugin deactivation, reactivation and new installations and nothing has worked.
Here's an example of a post URL to use for debugging: http://theoriginalsociety.com/quest-castro-jon-bellion-logic-24-freestyle/
It seems like the open graph image is too small (150x150), therefor Facebook is using the larger image it found on the page. It's in your best interest to give Facebook as large an image as possible.
[https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/howtos/maximizing-distribution-media-content/][1]
og:image – This is an image associated with your media. We suggest
that you use an image of at least 1200x630 pixels.
Try providing a much larger image and see if that solves the problem.
I have already checked out this question, and it sounds like he's describing the same exact problem as me except for a few things:
I'm not running on https
80% of the time I try to debug, I get this message " Error parsing input URL, no data was scraped."
The scraper works perfectly on a different domain, but same server, same theme with almost identical content. Every time I try a domain it scrapes it perfectly including the image
During the 20% that it actually scrapes my page, I am having the same issue in the above link. It is reading my thumbnail, yet showing a blank image. The link brings me to a working image but it doesn't want to show anything.
The weird part is it worked completely fine about 10 months ago when I updated this blog on a daily basis. The only difference is I've switched servers recently. While that would explain a possibility, the other domain switched as well and doesn't have this problem.
I am at a loss why my links either show no image at all in facebook or give me the:
Domain Link
Domain
(no image, no description)
Very frustrating situation. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Update:
I have 6 domains...
When I moved servers recently, I found the new server wasn't prepared to compress the pages, so my blog posts looked crazy. This forced me to turn compression 'off' on WP Super Cache on my main blog. I also did it to my 2nd highest traffic blog figuring I'd get to the other 4 later.
Well, now those first two blogs appear to work fine in the facebook debugger, but the remaining 4 have troubles. The tricky part is, I completely removed WP Super Cache from one site and still had trouble fetching the data.
So while it seems logically it should have been a WP Super Cache issue, continuing to have errors despite removing it leads me to believe now? I'm still so baffled.
Update:
Ok, I loaded Chrome and IE, and both were able to pull the data with ease. The google snippet tool also worked great. I am going to try posting a link to my facebook fan page via chrome and see if it works correctly.
I did clear my FF cache and it didn't change, but I am still confused why one domain works ok while the other does not. Either way, if adding in Chrome works, I'll stick with that for now.
Any other suggestions?
Cache should not make any problem. If a browser can see your page, so can facebook debugger.
See if some 500 error is there. Try from different browser, clearing the browser cache etc. Try google rich snippet and see if a custom search engine is scrapping it fine.
PS: It will be nicer if you post url.
Our website was recently redesigned and since then I have been unable to get the correct image to appear when I choose link.
For instance:
If I post this link:
http://www.horrormovienews.net/article1184.html
It does not show the image of Ethan Hawke as one of the choices for me to post along with this story. I have asked a few other people (co-workers) and some friends who live around the USA, PA, NC, etc. and they can not get that pic as a choice either. One person who lives in MA can see it when he posts a link.
(This happens to every news story in our network of sites since the theme was changed on the sites)
Another bizarre thing is it WILL show the image for this story:
http://www.horrormovienews.net/article1160.html
but not the one at the top of this post.
I have even used the Facebook lint tool about a week ago to try to refresh the cache.
I have tried to many different things to try to fix thing. I changed the image path, the size of the images, etc. Nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing it? Any help would be much appreciated.
You need to specify og:image tag. See your results here: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.horrormovienews.net%2Farticle1184.html
Fix up those warnings and then you should be able to share the link much more consistent.
