Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
BradTBP Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Hello, it seems this may not work if attachments are stored in Amazon S3? It did not work on Facebook for me and I got this message: What to do next? Thanks for your help.

It shouldn’t matter where the image is stored, as long as its accessible and not outdated. I can’t really debug this from a screenshot though. Have you tried to hitting the “scrape again” button as mentioned in the instructions?
BradTBP Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) I hit the scrape button multiple times.... It seems to be doing fine now. Love this pluign. Thanks! Edited May 15, 2018 by BradTBP
Joey_M Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 @opentype Would you be open to changing it so that the 'share' image remains hidden and that it's added when using the new topic/edit screen? i.e you attach the file when creating a new topic/ or are editing a topic, you click to add a custom share image and then the image remains private on the site but can be seen via social media.

Steve Bullman Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Forgive me, im being dense as usual. Where do you actually assign the images per forum?
Nathan Explosion Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 From the plugin's description: This plugin will use the first image uploaded as attachment in a topic
RLPVT Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 Question: Would this work if I added an image to a topic but had an auto RSS import connection to Facebook? Meaning it auto posts the from the RSS feed new items. Or is this only when you manually share the URL?

Meaning it auto posts the from the RSS feed new items. Haven’t tested it and don’t guarantee it, but auto-posting should also see the Open Graph data when the Facebook crawler looks at the page. So it might work.
RLPVT Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 OK so I added an image at the top of a topic. I ran Facebook debug to scrap again. I posted the url to the topic manually and not using the RSS and still it is posting the og:image from the settings on the meta for default. Anything I should look at? Also RSS feeds to facebook dont show the image either

RLPVT Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 As stated above in my post I did it BOTH WAYS. Manually and RSS and the post HAD an attached image at the first post of the topic. As matter of fact your super topics mod catches it with no problem. Also stated in my post above, I already scraped with FB debug.

And I asked you about the results, since I cannot see them myself since you don’t provide a test URL. You need to help me help you. Or we are stuck at “it doesn’t work”. I am unable to narrow down a potential cause this way. It works for everyone else except you. So something must be specific to your installation or the way you are doing this.
RLPVT Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) I will PM a URL to you BTW... When I say Quote I ran Facebook debug to scrap again. I posted the url to the topic manually and not using the RSS and still it is posting the og:image from the settings on the meta for default. That is the results..... So not sure exactly what part is getting lost in the translation Edited September 26, 2018 by RLPVT
Silnei L Andrade Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 Technically it would be very difficult to insert a feature to customize the featured photo url?

It’s simply by design. (and therefore affordable)
Silnei L Andrade Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 By your reply I understood that objectively difficult! Thank you!
Mercury Forever Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Hi opentype, I am testing your application and the image does not work when I share a link on twitter. Any ideas.?

Mercury Forever Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Hello, I have sent you the URL of my platform that was shared with twitter through MP

But your server blocks the direct access of the image (Status: 403), so the social media service cannot use the images.
Mercury Forever Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Any guide to solve .. ??? How did you identify the error 403 ??? Edited October 23, 2018 by Fred Krugger
Mercury Forever Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Do not bother answering, I have already identified the reason for the blockade. At the httacess level I removed the extension of the photos I use on my platform. RewriteRule .*\.(jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ - [F,NC] #RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ - [F,NC]
