Sean,
Still doesn't work for me. Can you resend the information.
Frisch,
Your issues is frankly bizarre, and I believe, unrelated to the other user's issues. If you look at the HTML on your page, there's no mention of the Italian website URL (corriere.it). The LinkedIn Share button does use the Open Graph tags on your site, and if you use the Open Graph debug tool from Facebook, it doesn't detect that weird URL either:
developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/o...g-your-business.html
Either that's a bug with LinkedIn (we're investigating if there are other reports), or something else very odd is going on. Are you seeing this on any other pages?
All,
We're still trying to narrow this down, but need a site to see the problem in action. If you can Private Message us an admin account, that would really help. We're hoping to have a fix for the 4.2.2 release next week. If you can't send credentials, feel free to try reverting the changes by following the instructions below... that will go back to the old 4.1 method, which may fix your problem for now, but that caused some issues with other obscure URLs (which may not affect you).
To revert, edit the /libraries/sourcecoast/utilities.php file, at line 163, you should see the definition for getStrippedUrl. Please replace that whole block of code with the following:
static function getStrippedUrl()
{
$href = JURI::current();
$juri = JURI::getInstance();
// Delete some common, unwanted query params to at least try to get at the canonical URL
$juri->delVar('fb_comment_id');
$juri->delVar('tp');
$juri->delVar('notif_t');
$juri->delVar('ref');
$query = $juri->getQuery();
if ($query)
$href .= '?' . $query;
return $href;
}You'll need to use the URL Debug tool (mentioned above) to refresh Facebook's cache if you want to test immediately.. otherwise, Facebook will detect the changes within 24-48 hours.
Thanks,
Alex
