Mercury Forever Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 It was the difference, in fact, the theme has images inserted as a local LINK, but they are not stored in the theme .. I made a test and it works perfectly. Now yes, thank you very much for the assistance.
wegorz23 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Hi, I just bought it and installed and its not working 😞 Fore example I put this link https://www.audiostereo.pl/magazyn/magazyn-kulturalny/muzyka/massive-attack-mezzanine-reedycja-r708/ on facebook and it is without iamge. I dont see option to rebuild the cache, maybe thats why?

That link will be shown with an image. I tested it. But it has nothing to do with my plugin, since it is a Pages article, which already supports OG:Image. My plugin only changes forum topics, which currently do not have an automatic OG:Image.
wegorz23 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Strange. Sometimes its working on pages, sth not. I think it may be related with share button under the article. If I use it it sometimes not adding a picture. I thought it is for forum & pages. But still... Ive checked https://www.audiostereo.pl/topic/102152-tani-wzmacniacz-do-porady-dla-poczatkujacych/ for example and there is no image also ;/

If you share the link for the first time, you might not see the picture instantly. But it will get added. That’s just how Facebook works. 8 minutes ago, wegorz23 said: But still...

dlg Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Great plugin, thank you! Just a question and a suggestion. My question, I just tested the url in Facebook and it worked perfectly. However with Twitter I'm seeing this here's the URL (https://mundoregio.com/foro/topic/59007-tips-para-buscar-en-google/?tab=comments#comment-60373) and I've an attachment. Thank for your help on this one (I hope it works with twitter too). and my suggestion... It will be great if we can include an IF statement in order to give administrators and moderators a chance to use this incredible plugin and prevent a misuse of it as regular members might not use it properly. Thank you again for this useful tool, you made my day! Jesus

However with Twitter I'm seeing this It should work with Twitter as well. I can’t see any problems with other sites. The TwitterCard validator doesn’t give much information, but the Facebook Debugger shows problem on your site in regards to “name” vs ”property” in the code. I would suggest to investigate that. My guess is, if Facebook doesn’t give warnings anymore, Twitter will be happy too. https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/ Edited June 20, 2019 by opentype
dlg Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Thank you. I had a duplicated OG code. I removed the one originally in my template and now it works! Great plugin!

FASEOFMARS Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 seems to take a while to propagate will it change itself or will I need to keep scraping it? I got it working on one post eventually then tried it on another post and it's just showing the sharer image.

I got it working on one post eventually then tried it on another post and it's just showing the sharer image. The change on the site in the code is instant. I can’t influence what the social media sites are doing. If you see the regular sharer image, it was either cached by the social media site, or the plugin couldn’t find a proper attachment to use.

eMCe71 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Can I expect that will be working also on my "Pages"? I need a help here https://medfor.me/news/ze-swiata-nauki/czy-warto-operować-w-łonie-matki-rozszczep-kręgosłupa-r297/ I want to FB use the first image from it (from surgery)

Pages already has a record image which will already be set as OG:image when uploaded for the record. This plugin therefore only affects the forum, where there is no “topic image”.
Giray Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Hi all. Where is the scrape button... can't find it. Thanks!!

orp Posted November 16, 2019 Posted November 16, 2019 great idea, but it seems rather than attachments, most users these days just paste links to external images (which IPS thankfully auto-embeds)... therefore, i was going to ask if you might add support for using the first embedded image. however, i just read that Facebook and possibly other major social sites will be enforcing that the og:image URL be from the same domain as the page (or a white-listed domain) - so i guess adding such a feature would only be practical if our site was using the IPS cache-remote-images feature. so instead - would you consider adding a way to specify a fallback image per-forum for when there are no attached images on a post? then at least we could have an image that is more appropriate to a particular link than our default site-wide og:image. thanks!

Indeed, members doesnt care about the image used by Facebook and sometime use extenal images. Thx
opentype Posted May 5, 2020 Author Posted May 5, 2020 The plugin provides just a simple template change: look for attachments, set one as og: image. That’s why it’s so cheap. I expect that IPS will add that functionality themselves one day and this plugin becomes useless. Until then, you get a simple and useful feature for a small price. There are no plans to add any options.
joseaguerrero Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Hi, i downloaded archive, arrived in a .zip file. Inside there is a .pdf and a .xml file. I tried to install it, following instructions, but there isn't .tar file inside. APPLICATIONS says it must be a .tar file... Any idea how to fix that, please???

That message from IPS in the download area is wrong. I will tell IPS about it. Please check the PDF. Edited June 18, 2020 by opentype joseaguerrero 1
joseaguerrero Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Now installed .xml via PLUGIN... thanks a lot 😁👍
xtech Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 This is a great plugin. I am starting a new community and i am thinking on buying it. My question is: most of the times people just paste a link to an image, would it be possible to do like this pseudocode (i believe it's better than explaining in words): if (attachment && type(attachment) = image) ogImageTag = attachment; else foreach (post) { if regex(imageURL in post) { ogImageTag = imageURL; break; } }
