That text is coming from JFBConnect. Basically, there's no text on that page to draw any good description from and so JFBConnect is using the meta description for the page, which is set as:
<meta name="description" content="1 2 3 Next &gt;(194 items) � BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownload BuyDownl..." />
Not terribly good for search engines or Facebook.

I'd recommend either:
* Setting the meta description tag on that page to something better.. That would be component specific on how to do so. This is recommended as it would fix your Open Graph tags as well as what search engines see and use for your description.
* Use the Open Graph easy tag below to set your own description for the page:
{SCOpenGraph description=My great page!}
JFBConnect will detect and remove that tag, while adding the proper Open Graph tag to the page.

I hope that helps,
Alex

Both ways worked. Sorta time consuming. Do you know of any plugins that can take and use the title and place into the meta information automatically?

I'm still testing over here....I noticed one other thing. Not sure if this is a bug or what.

When I make a comment, it doesn't show. I have to refresh the page first. Then it will be there. Then after that, any more messages I make it automatically shows without me refreshing the entire page. I don't think it supposed to operate that way. What would cause this issue?

The title should be placed as the title tag automatically. It's the description you're having problems with. I don't think there will be anything to automatically generate a description since there isn't any text (that I can see) in the contents of that page.

Is that a Joomla article, or some other component? Most components have some way to set the meta description for each page. Once set, JFBConnect will use that... whether it's set by the component automatically in some way or manually set by you.

Thanks,
Alex

Its a component I had developed, I'll see if they can change something to auto add a desc. What about my other question concerning the comments not showing without a page refresh?

Not sure why the comment won't show for you when you post it. I just tried on the page you linked to above and my "Test comment" appeared automatically under the comment box. Can you try with a different browser and/or user and let me know if that helps?

One thing I did notice was that when I went to the page, it drew itself and then reloaded at least 2 more times. I'm not sure why it decided to reload itself, but it seemed pretty strange. Not sure if you see the same behavior. I'm using Chrome on a Mac, just so you know for testing purposes.

Thanks,
Alex
