Facebook post being duplicated multiple times on a page - facebook

I have an article posted on a Facebook Page.
However the article seems to keep reposting itself on the page at random intervals. Sometimes this will happen 3 or 4 times in a single day, and sometimes it won't happen at all. The post doesn't say it's being submitted by any application at the bottom like it would if it was.
It appears just as if a link has been pasted in the comment box, and submitted.
Any ideas what is causing this issue and how to stop it?
It's only one article that is causing the issue.
Cheers,
Thomas.

Having looked at the graph.facebook.com/PAGE_ID/feed I discovered that it's being posted by an application called Notes.
No idea what it's for, but I have disabled its ability to post to the wall.
Will see if that stops the problem, and then tick this answer as final if that is the case.

I had a similar problem with duplicate posts from a page showing up in an event (hosted by that page) over a 72 hour period, appearing at intervals of 4-5 hours. I eventually tracked it down to my Facebook app. When I went to the discussion section for the event on my phone, I saw that the post that had been repeatedly posting was listed as "will retry your post" because I had tried to post and gotten an error in my original attempt to post it. I chose "discard the post" and hopefully this will fix the issue.
It appears this may be an ongoing Facebook issue based on these two related posts
"Why am I repeatedly getting "will retry" messages on posts I shared days ago?"
"What does will retry your post mean?"

Facebook Not Scraping URL Properly (Blocked URL) On Fresh URL's

I have started to experience a really strange problem with Facebook link scraping/caching which seems random in nature.
On brand new posts when I go to check: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ with my new URL I get a message saying 'Cannot scrape: URL blocked'
We have literally been sharing URL's to Facebook for YEARS with no problem whatsoever. All open graph tags are present and working fine.
What is really weird is if I just manually press the 'scrape again' button it grabs all the bits properly and says everything is fine. It's always just the first attempt.
I have also tried manually calling the scrap API instead of letting Facebook do it when someone shares the URL for the first time and still sometimes (not always) it returns empty (just 'id' and 'url' returned) indicating the URL was blocked.
What's going on here it's driving me mad? We are nowhere near our API limits if maybe that was the issue...
Why would it say blocked first go on the debug page then literally 2 seconds later you press 'scrape again' and it works fine.
Just to note sometimes when it says blocked it still shows maybe the image in the link preview but no title or description. It's like it's grabbed some tags but then given up. Very strange...
I have checked our access logs and I can see 'Facebot' accessing our site fine.
Hope someone can help, I am really hoping this is some weird Facebook bug as I can't see any change in our code base that would effect this.
Facebook does not return anything helpful when this happens even with the API. I have no way in contacting Facebook direct either. If we are somehow getting blocked I would love to know why and fix that issue. But it's impossible to debug at the moment.
Just to note I have 3 sites all running the same code base (WordPress environment). They are all experiencing this issue. All been running fine for many years.
Cheers
This was to do with rate limiting that was not visible in the Facebook APP dashboard. Helpful...

Facebook posted link crawl

Here's a problem: I've got some number of links posted to groups "as is". That posts look like a link, nothing more. Is there a way to make that links crawled to previews, as Facebook automatically does when we share a link or post it with a minor delay? Without re-posting them.
I've had that with slow internet connections or weak devices.
Or you can read this: http://www.robblatt.com/technology/facebook-previews-not-working-heres-a-fix/
Anyhow, if it doesn't show the preview at any try, you should - before trying again - refresh the page, as (mentioned in above link) if it doesn't go the first time, it never will, unless you refresh.
otherwise, did you update the page recently (or was it recently updated)?
Edit: try adding this to the end of the link: ?=1

Why Facebook URL suddenly decrease the number of like/share?

I have a landing page what got 9.2k likes 2 days ago
http://cradiff.com/saiyan-ghost-warrior
But suddenly yesterday I check and see it 's only have 17 likes. I don't know why it show like that. Here are some tasks what I did right before the day I see the changes what may effect this problem
I run facebook ads $40 for this link on my facebook page. Maybe this make the number of likes/share increase too much?
I use this tool to clear cache until it show the URL is listed in review list https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/ . Because this tool doesn't get the last html so that I submit it around 5 times until it is locked
Other than that, everything 's fine. It 's the URL what I have to get the players in game share to earn coins. It 's invested a lot of time and money before it can reach to 9.2k.
Can anyone help me about this?

Tumblr posts not appearing as search results?

So I am getting a bit confused with tumblr and cant seem to find answers anywhere.
So I signed up for tumblr a week or two ago, made some posts, reblogged some other posts, like and followed stuff. Then I find none of my posts appear in search results.
Say I posted an image of a me wearing a sugar loaf helmet and tag it sugarloaf helmet. Not going to be many results for a tag like that is there? So I go to search, no results. I try logging out and then searching, no results. Try it from a private browser window and from a someone elses computer, trying to eliminate the possibility of tumblr ignoring your own post.
So I search and find vague references to anti-spam systems and new account restrictions.
The problem is there is no details on what is needed to be done to stop being seen as a possible spammer or new account.
Anyone got any ideas how I can post stuff on tumblr and have the post appear in search results. Not appearing in search results is like face book with out friend requests.
A rough idea on a time period, number of likes, follows or posts/reblogs before my posts appear in search results.
Thanks

It is now solved.
It appears to be that you need to follow about 100 blogs and/or like 100 posts and/or post nearly 200 times.
I just went and followed random blogs, liked random posts and essential posted gibberish. And when I got to around the numbers I just mentioned I was able to see my posts in the search results.
Then I unfollowed, unlinked and deleted my posts.

Facebook Opengraph Action does not work at all times

I created a Facebook OpenGraph App which was integrated with my website http://liveofofo.com everything worked fine but the problem is that not every read action triggers a post to timeline, as a matter of fact, it may not work in days meanwhile, I have the same Opengraph plugin and settings on another site (ghanamovie.org) and it works perfectly, all read actions triggers a post to timeline
I have done a lot of troubleshooting but I still can't get what exactly the problem is, I'll appreciate any help suggestion.
I took a quick look at the source code for the first article on the page.
The Open Graph meta tags are repeated several times on the page (and are not in the <head> section of the file).
Take a good look at the structure of your code and use the Debugger to see if Facebook approves of your syntax.
If there is a problem when you are posting the Open Graph action, log the error message. It will probably tell you why the post failed.
