Why is my meta info not sharing properly? - facebook

I have recently finished my site http://wwww.cute-or-not.com
When I share it on Facebook, no meta info or image comes through even though I have set this in WordPress using SEO Yoast. Am I missing something obvious

http://wwww.cute-or-not.com is most likely not what you want, maybe you meant http://www.cute-or-not.com
Using the debugger, http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cute-or-not.com%2F
More Than One OG URL Specified: Object at URL 'http://www.cute-or-not.com/' of type 'article' is invalid because it specifies multiple 'og:url' values: http://www.cute-or-not.com/, http://www.cute-or-not.com/.
You are defining the OG meta tags twice. Remove it from the "Easy Facebook Share Thumbnails" plugin.

Facebook doesn't allow me to chage the og:type for my site

I'm setting up a temporary coming soon one-pager for my employer and after running the Object Debugger on it, as I usually do when setting up a new site it brings up an error I've not seen before.
Cannot change og_type The object at 'http://www.example.com/' previously had type 'article' and cannot be changed to an object of type 'website' to avoid data corruption of existing actions.
So, the graph API still returns the old OGP data for the URL (https://graph.facebook.com/10150291357906791) even though I've changed the meta tags on the website.
The url has 15 likes already, and honestly, I don't really care that much about them and if the solution involves losing them, I'm all for it.
I found a solution for changing the og:type for subpages (http://facebook.stackoverflow.com/a/14405329/859999), but the page in this case is the root of the website. So… the solution posted there is not usable in this case.
Since you don’t care about existing likes, I’d suggest to just use a new URL for this.
You said it is the root URL of your page – but if it’s only temporary, you could redirect from there to another address (which has the correct meta info).
(If you are worried about your SEO-Ranking or something, you could do this redirect only for the Facebook scraper, recognizing it by its User Agent.)

Facebook dont get images from my website metadata correctly when sharing

I have set Facebook metadata to let Facebook get the right data when sharing. But i am having troubles with the images. I have used the url linter tool from Facebook , but i dont know where is the error:
http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.agendaburgos.com%2Fagenda%2Ffiesta-curpillos-parral.aspx
The warning it shows is this:
The parser's result for this metadata did not match the input metadata. Likely, this was caused by the data being ordered in an unexpected way, multiple values being given for a property only expecting a single value, or property values for a given property being mismatched. Here are the input property =>content pairs that were not seen in the parsed result: og:image:url => http://www.agendaburgos.com/Imagen.ashx?url=uploads%5ceventos%5cfiestas-del-curpillos-en-el-parral_5417.jpg&h=200&estirar=true
The link from og:image is right, where is the problem?
It appears if the Facebook Debug Tool doesn't like the URL to your image. You are using a script to generate a resized version of the uploaded image. Try referencing the original image in your og:image tag and see if it helps:
<meta property="og:image" content="http://www.agendaburgos.com/uploads/eventos/fiestas-del-curpillos-en-el-parral_5417.jpg" />
Remember to scrape the page again to update Facebook's cache.
I think the reason you're getting this warning may be due to the way you are building the image URL using an ASHX handler.
Don't bother with the dynamic resize. Facebook will handle that once they get the image. Just send your image at full resolution to Facebook.
You also have a problem that you aren't explicitly defining an og:description tag. If you can, you should repeat your description tag as og:description.

sharing issue (weird description)

I'm having a weird experience with fb sharing. Whenever me or anyone share's my blog post, in the description area my ad codes are visible. This is hammering my adsense. I tried using facebook debugging tool and I got the following issues but I am unable to resolve it. Any help would be highly appreciable.
Errors That Must Be Fixed: Body Meta: You have tags ouside of your . This is either because your was malformed and they fell lower in the parse tree, or you accidentally put your Open Graph tags in the wrong place. Either way you need to fix it before the tags are usable.
**Warnings That Should Be Fixed: Inferred Property: The og:url property
should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from
other tags. Inferred Property: The og:title property should be
explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Inferred Property: The og:image property should be explicitly
provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags. Inferred
Property: The og:locale property should be explicitly provided, even
if a value can be inferred from other tags.
It sounds like the meta tags are in the wrong place but because you haven't given us a link to your site it's hard to be sure; they should be in the section of the page. This would be causing the first error.
The second error refers to missing tags, but they might be 'missing' by virtue of not being in the correct place, so fix the first problem first
{edited after seeing your page}
The main error at the top is because you've a
<meta name="alexaVerifyID" content="{snipped}" /> tag outside the <head></head> section of your page.
The rest of the errors are because you haven't added any open graph tags at all - each page should have meta tags telling Facebook what title/description/image to use when sharing, as well as which app/user should be allowed to see the analytics and insights information for the shared links
For more information on how this works, see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
If you want to just get up and running quickly, try the tool at Step 2 of the Like Button Documentation to generate some sample tags

Facebook Linter: Extraneous Property Objects of this type do not allow properties named fb:page_id

Hi when I run facebook linter on my site (www.mvcc.com.uy) it says:
Extraneous Property Objects of this type do not allow properties named fb:page_id.
What am I doing wrong here ?
fb:page_id isn't required for Open Graph pages.
Typically to get the linter to work properly, you need to add some meta tags in your <head>. Check out more information here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
Also, the Facebook servers only check your site once a day for new meta tags so don't expect the linter to work for a few days after you've added the meta tags.
If you've already done this and you're still experiencing problems - please provide us with examples of your code.

Facebook Business LIKE box is giving an Open Graph error

You supplied an Open Graph type via
one of the supported meta tags, but
the type you specified "link" is not
valid.
The above is the error I get when the "LIKE" button is clicked.
I tried to set all sorts of OG meta tags. You can see the code live at http://luxe.sonikastudios.com
I looked at many different forums etc. but no clear answer is given. I don't even have an og type "link" specified.
I put my page through the linter provided by Facebook (http://developers.facebook.com/tools/lint/) and I don't see any errors coming up as far as I can tell (but then I don't even know what this screen is supposed to look like in case there is an error).
Any help would be appreciated.
Appears to be a known FB Bug: http://bugs.developers.facebook.net/process_bug.cgi
I think it doesn't like your <meta property="fb:link"> tag. Where did you get it from?
Just remove everything and leave only required params listed here. I would also recommend setting type to article. See if that works. If it does then start adding new params one by one until it fails.
