The problem is that your HTML is malformed. You have span tags in the head. Facebook’s debugger sees this, and assumes the head must have ended and the body started, and it didn’t find any og tags so far – hence it reports the properties are missing. If you scroll down in the debugger to … Read more
Try the new beta version of my Simple Facebook Connect plugin. http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/simple-facebook-connect/branches/new-sfc/ I prefer this comment implementation over others as mine does not create WordPress users directly from Facebook connected users when just used for commenting.
There are a couple of ways to do this. You can do as Chris Carson suggested and manually add them as a text menu. You can also make a text widget and use icons with links to the various services. If you’re looking for something a little more robust, there’s also a couple plugins and … Read more
This information doesn’t have to be static. Here’s an example: <meta property=”og:title” content=”<?php if ( is_single() ) { wp_title(); } else { bloginfo(‘name’); } ?>” /> <meta property=”og:type” content=”blog” /> <meta property=”og:url” content=”<?php echo get_permalink() ?>” /> <meta property=”og:site_name” content=”<?php bloginfo(‘name’) ?>” /> Images are a little tricker. I like using the featured image if … Read more
Take a look at /plugins/wpbook/includes/publish_to_facebook.php. They only have one function that posts to FB. You should be able to cobble something together from their code. Just make sure if you write your own files to them in a separate folder in your plugins directory. Otherwise any updates to WPBook will overwrite your files. The whole … Read more
You’re getting the error because the Facebook and All In One Event Calendar plugins are both declaring the fb_admin_dialog() function, but PHP only allows a function to be declared once. To fix the immediate problem, log in to your server with S/FTP and rename the wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar directory to something like all-in-one-event-calendar-temp; that will deactivate it … Read more
If it’s only for Facebook purposes that you need it, you could add the following code to your header.php file (between <head> and </head>): <meta property=”og:image” content=”http://ia.media-imdb.com/rock.jpg”/> Of course replace the URL in content=”…” with your own image URL. A reference for all the Facebook meta tags is here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraphprotocol/
The accepted answer over on StackOverflow looks to be the best way to do this. You’ll want to get into your header.php file to make these changes. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6693499/how-can-i-set-a-website-image-that-will-show-as-preview-on-facebook Now if the image should change from post to post, I would probably write something using JQUERY to change the value of the meta tag on the … Read more
Put this in your head <?php $fb_image = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_post_thumbnail_id( get_the_ID() ), ‘thumnail’); ?> <?php if ($fb_image) : ?> <meta property=”og:image” content=”<?php echo $fb_image[0]; ?>” /> <?php endif; ?> To test it out, you don’t have to create a new post, just paste your URL in here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug Here you can the data and possibly some … Read more
Facebook caches the meta values for performance. So it is currently hosting an old version of the shared URL. You need to use the Facebook debugger, and Fetch new scrap info. This will update the stored meta values of the post. To confirm that it works, I have already fetched new data for the respective … Read more
