og:type invalid was created by rakesh
I have a joomla article loading this Opengraph tag

{SCOpenGraph title=FUN TITLE}{SCOpenGraph image=http://www.URL TO IMAGE.jpg}{SCOpenGraph type=article}{SCOpenGraph description=GOOD DESCRIPTION}

Can't seem to figure out what the problem is. Should be something with {SCOpenGraph type=article} or {SCOpenGraph image:type=jpg} I suppose.

Unknown Object Type Object at URL 'www.URL TO WEBSITE.com' is invalid because the configured 'og:type' of 'WEBSITE:' is invalid.

Bit of help would be nice.

Your tags look correct. In general, you shouldn't need to set the og:type of "article" as that's what JFBConnect will default your content to by default.

The first suggestions I'd recommend you check are:
* Go to the Joomla -> Global Configuration area. Set the "Use GZip Compression" setting to "No". There were reports last year from some users that that setting could cause Facebook to have issues scraping the tags from sites.
* Make sure your site is online and the page you're testing is publicly visible. If Facebook is redirected to the login page, or some other content automatically, issues will happen.

Beyond that, can you Private Message me the URL of a page that's having this issue? Once we see the output and can test further, we'll gladly help however we can.

Thanks,
Alex

In JFBConnect: Open Graph - Edit Object
I added an Object with Object Type: article

Then checked: Built-In Facebook Object

This fixed my problem.
