If you have the appropriate Open Graph video tags on your article, Facebook should recognize it as a video. JFBConnect doesn't do these tags by default, but you can easily add our SCOpenGraph easy-tag to specify the video data. For example
{SCOpenGraph video=FULL_URL_PATH_TO_VIDEO}
{SCOpenGraph video:type=video/mp4}
{SCOpenGraph video:width=400}
{SCOpenGraph video:height=400}
{SCOpenGraph image=FULL_URL_PATH_TO_IMAGE_PREVIEW}
I'd recommend reading the documentation for the Open Graph video settings for full descriptions of these values.

And If I have a post attached Images can it be posted to FB

Yes, JFBConnect can set the og:image tag in the article for you. We have several different ways for JFBConnect to set the tag, so please read our Open Graph Tags documentation . If it's a Joomla article or K2 item, I would suggest using the "Open Graph Plugins" section to have JFBConnect automatically pick the image for you, unless you want further control.

This should hopefully get you started, but let me know if you have any further questions.

Dear Melissa,

I want to auto post to my FB page with a good formate where ever a discussion is created via easydiscuss .
But I could not find the easydiscuss plugin in the auto post plugins.
This means JFB connect will not allow easydiscuss to auto post ?
if that is the case can we achieve this with custom development ?

Thanks,
Imran

We don't currently have additional support for EasyDiscuss, though it's something we're considering for next year.

JFBConnect should automatically set the title and description from your EasyDiscuss topics. An Open Graph plugin for EasyDiscuss would add support for setting the image automatically. We still wouldn't be able to set the video tags automatically as (I don't think) EasyDiscuss doesn't have some way to indicate video topics or something else we could use to get the information about the video.

I hope that helps explain, but if you need more information or have suggestions on the support you'd like to see, please let us know.

Thanks,
Alex

We don't have a timeline we can give. EasyDiscuss is something we want to add support for, but until we start the integration, it's impossible to give an estimate. Sorry I can't be more clear, but it's a goal for 2017.

Thanks,
Alex
