Rodster,
The problem is that whatever component is on that page is taking the introtext or wherever you put the Like button, and using it for the meta description (or some other) tag. Then, JFBConnect is replacing the tag in your head area with the Like button HTML causing that weirdness.
We have a fix that we're testing right now for this, which will be in the release coming out later today. It's a bit tricky to remove the tag in the head area without causing other problems, so we're going to add a new option to enable/disable this feature while we get feedback.
If you're interested in implementing it to see if it fixes the issues on your site right now, before the release, we'd love to hear your feedback on how it goes. Our ix may need some tweaking though, so if it causes other issues, rest assured, we'll help fix those.
To make the change, please edit the /plugins/system/jfbcsystem/jfbcsystem.php file. Around line 313, you'll see the following block of code:
/*
* Code to strip any {JFBCxyz} tags from head. Caused issues on some users sites in 4.3.1
* Removing until more error-proof method found.
//Get the head
$content = JResponse::getBody();
$regex = '|<head(.*)?</head>|sui';
preg_match($regex, $content, $matches);
//Remove the tag if it's in the head
$newHead = preg_replace('|{'.$tag.'(.*?)}|ui', '', $matches[0]);
//Replace the head
$content = preg_replace('|<head(.*)?</head>|sui', $newHead, $content);
JResponse::setBody($content);
*/Replace that whole block with the following:
/*
* Code to strip any {JFBCxyz} tags from head. Caused issues on some user's sites in 4.3.1
* Removing until more error-proof method found.
*/
//Get the head
$content = JResponse::getBody();
$regex = '|<head(.*)?</head>|sui';
if (preg_match($regex, $content, $matches))
{
if (count($matches) == 2) // more than one head is a problem, don't do anything
{
//Remove the tag if it's in the head
$newHead = preg_replace('|{' . $tag . '(.*?)}|ui', '', $matches[0], -1, $count);
if ($count > 0)
{
//Replace the head
$content = preg_replace('|<head(.*)?</head>|sui', $newHead, $content, -1, $count);
if ($count == 1) // Only update the body if exactly one head was found and replaced
JResponse::setBody($content);
}
}
}Make sure you do not leave the */ from the bottom of original block, or you will run into issues.
Hope that helps, and keep us posted. Otherwise, wait for the new release and in the Configuration -> Misc tab, there will be a new "Experimental" section with just this setting. Enable that and test away!
Thanks,
Alex
