All the og: elements and properties seem to be in place for the k2 articles on the News2 template, but none of the information is displaying on Facebook when doing a Facebook Share:

Sample Article:
http://supconnect.com/tips/how-to-stand ... ddle-board

I've tinkered with the news2 backend settings, disabled sh404sef social settings, ... and I'm still at a loss. The og tags are there and with their respective values but for some reason Facebook is not showing any of it there.

Check whether you have enabled dual compression. For example, in the template and some enlargement.

Where would I check that?

It seems, though, that with all OG tags and properties in place that info should display on social. The links on the og image property are displaying without a problem when you click on the link.

Hi

Please try to use some 3rd party plugin to provide this functionality. Looks like the one in K2 is not working at all. Here are results from the page mentioned: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/d ... ddle-board

Hi Teibite,

The OG tags are all there, but it may have to do with where the Gavick Template places them. I'm not sure at this point.

I have:

1. turned off Gzip compression, which I heard my prevent images from displaying on Facebook
2. turned off all other Social SEO features on sh404sef to avoid conflict with the Gavick/K2 OG tags

I did just upgrade to joomla 3.4 and it seems to have stopped working around then.

Can You please tell me what You've done ? It look correctly now. Maybe it was a conflict and just facebook had to clear it's settings.
