When I paste my website URL in facebook wall. In the iframe's page title. I am seeing some strange title text instead of reading index.php title tag. I am not getting from where this text is coming.
When we post website url in facebook, which page will be load in iframe.?
You need to check your open graph tags. Full info here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
There is also a test tool that allows you to debug what information facebook is looking at when it sees your page, here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

I have a project, coded on codeigniter, which is basically a collection of posts by different users. While adding the fb share button and clicking on it, The image, title and description content is taken from the header of the home page and not of the page(view) where the share button is placed?
As mentioned here, The issue was that only those users could view the page who are signed in, and therefore even fb wasn't able to scrape the info from there.
EDIT: Whats important here is how FB scrapes the info. Apparantly the link you provide inside data-href if parsed by FB and they capture the og meta tags from the header on that page. However if you restrict those pages to logged in users, FB is also unable to parse the page and thus it reverts to the base URL's meta tags.
I have inserted the OG meta tags in my pages and also have provided a simple link to help users share the contents on the Facebook using the
https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=[the-urlencoded-link-to-my-page]
link. But I have two problems:
When attempting to share the content for the first time, the
Facebook sharer page only displays a preview box which only contains
the name of the site, and makes me use the Facebook's Object
Debugger to
fetch the meta tags. How can I automate this process?
And secondly, while the Object Debugger report says that it has
found the og:url, og:type, og:title, og:locale,
og:image:width, og:image:height, og:image and the
og:description raw tags on the page, but the image doesn't get
displayed in neither the preview box of the page nor on the shared
status. What I have missed? What's wrong?
To make things clear, sharing on google+ works perfectly (the image gets displayed, the title and the descriptions are in place.)
Thanks in advance :)
I'm trying to integrate open graph in my website, so that I can post a link to my relevant facebook page and it will display the relevant information (title, description etc).
Yet, even though it worked for some time, now it only displays my domain name regardless of the link I post. No images, no descs, nothing.
I've created a test page to find out what's wrong, but I've come to a dead end.
The test page is W3C valid, the Facebook debugger is parsing all the information correctly, the preview before I post the link to facebook is correct, but when I hit post it displays nothing, just the url.
I've tried several actions such as different doctypes, commenting out the open graph metas, moving js after the metas, removing the meta content-type to no avail, but if you can help me post the test page correctly to facebook, I think I'll be able to find what's wrong with my site.
My website: http://www.accorda.info
The test page: http://www.accorda.info/test.html
My facebook fan page: http://www.facebook.com/accorda.info
Replace the meta tag or delete some. I don't understand… Facebook OpenGraph Debug tool show IMBb info for your page.

Remember, Facebook don't update page info real-time. New meta tags can be visible in 2 days.
I have a website at http://www.mydomain.com which has a corresponding facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/pages/mydomain/123456789.
I am looking for a way to integrate this facebook page URL into the open graph headers so that when someone shares my page, it actually shares the Facebook page instead of the site's URL.
Is this possible?
You can now do this by setting the og:url meta tag to the url of your Facebook page. Keep in mind that if you do this, other networks that use Open Graph tags will probably share your Facebook page instead of the site's url, so make sure that's what you want.
<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.facebook.com/your-page"/>
Perhaps you already figured this out as this is an old question, but since I stumbled upon it... If I understand your question correctly, you do not even need the ogp meta tags to accomplish what you want to do. All you need to do is go to http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/ and input your facebook page url in "url to like", https://www.facebook.com/pages/mydomain/123456789 from your example. Then select the options you want including the "send" button. Then get the code and paste it where you want it in your website. Now whenever someone clicks "like" on your website or clicks "send" to share your website, they will actually be liking or sending the url to your Facebook page and not your website. Is that what you were looking for?
My friend has created about 20 Facebook fan page for the website. www.AvailDiscounts.com
Now the issue is, when we click on the wall post to "share" with other friends, its taking to another page where it displays the meta tags and the title of the login page instead of displaying the exact post.
Please find the fan page of the website:

Please help
As far as i have checked this seems to be an issue with the RSS Graffiti application in Facebook.
You have two issues here:
1) Are you posting the correct link in RSS Graffiti?
It seems all of your fan page links redirect me to the Avail-Discounts-Chicago home page. It's either it is non-existent, deal closed or bad URL supplied.
2) RSS Graffiti posts differently than Share button
RSS Graffiti prepares your data, image link title and description before posting to the page stream. The default Facebook Share button does not. What it does is get the URL, scrape that URL with information, which can be defined through opengraph tags. Make sure your links / deals have their meta:og's.
Your question is a bit vague, and the passing of the auth information is kind of scary, but anyway, I'd make the href of the post something along the lines of this:
