I am getting this error in Open Graph Object Debugger - The 'og:type' property is required, but not present. My users comments are not being posted to their Facebook wall.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

My website is www.oapschat.co.uk

The problem exists on all the articles on the site.

I am using JFBConnect Version: 6.2.4

I just re-scraped your page www.oapschat.co.uk/ on the Facebook Open Graph Debugger. The errors encountered indicate that the og:type is invalid only because there is an invalid og:image tag on the page.

File Attachment:


You have the following tags on the page, but if you navigate to the URL for this og:image, you will get a 404 error
<meta property="og:image" content="http:/www.oapschat.co.uk/public_html/images/logo_big.jpg">
<meta property="og:image:type" content="image/jpeg">
<meta property="og:image:width" content="1200">
<meta property="og:image:height" content="1080">

These are not in the block of Open Graph tags that JFBConnect adds to the page, so you will need to figure out how they are getting added or what other extension is doing it. [Edited to add: If you've manually included the tag, I think you should just strip out the public_html from the URL so that it is www.oapschat.co.uk/images/logo_big.jpg - this will bring you to a valid logo]

Please note that after you fix the og:image tag on the page, you will need to re-scrape the page by either going to our site socialdebug.com which forces a new scrape or to the Facebook Open Graph Debugger at developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ and then hitting 'Debug' then 'Fetch new scrape information'

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Could you tell me how to strip out the public_html from the URL so that it is www.oapschat.co.uk/images/logo_big.jpg?

Many thanks.

Actually, no. As I said, JFBConnect is not adding that tag to your site. Therefore, I don't know what's doing it and, thus, how to remove it. Since it sounds like it was not something you added, you will have to look through the other extensions on your site.

Check with your host to see if varnish Hosting is running. I spent months trying to figure this out on my website hosted by one.com.

Absolute nightmare but figured it in the end
