[horseguards]

the og:title tag is always empty

these are the og meta tags for a given thread:

And this is the way it shows in facebook.

In functions_facebook.php, og:title looks like this:

'og:title' => $thread['title'],

Could anyone please give me a hand?

Thanks in advance!

Does this only happen on threads?

 

[horseguards]

It very weird
https://www.diigo.com/item/image/4mzth/34s1

It takes very long to load the iFrame. When clicked, it showed up in different ways.
One with title but wrong image, all others with the correct image but no title.

I have in in threads and inside the posts. I reckon I will only keep at the top of the thread.
Anyway, I am trying with different variables to try to find the right one to show the title.

any ideas to solve this?

thanx

Can you please answer my question? Thanks

 

[horseguards]

in threads and posts. I haven't put it anywhere else

So to be clear, the og:title is not empty in other locations like blogs, CMS, forums, etc?

 

[horseguards]

Just to test, i wrote a blog post (I have none yet), and is exactly the same as with the threads and CMS, no og title.

 

[Fillip H.]

I just checked this site and there's no og:title tag at all. Would you be able to tell me what setting to activate in the AdminCP in order to enable this tag?

 

[horseguards]

I have no idea. I need to solve this.

 

[Fillip H.]

That file does not contain og:title. Is this a modification you did manually?

 

[horseguards]

No, I didn't. Precisely, I did buy the pro installation cause I have no idea how it works.

 

[horseguards]

I have not changed anything. I have no idea how to change anything.

I downloaded a fresh copy of vBulletin 4.2.2 and compared the functions_facebook.php to your file. I found that og:title is not supposed to be included in that file, so I have removed it and re-uploaded it to your server.

 

[horseguards]

Ok, thanks

Weird enough, I did share on FB a post, and it shows the title but not the description. If you put your mouse
over the title, the it opens the image, title and description as it should be...

Have a look at the image

Any ideas on how to solve this?

This is the relevant section of the functions_facebook.php from the latest version of vBulletin:

function get_fbopengrapharray()
{
	global $vbulletin, $show;

	// prepare open graph default data
	$show['fb_opengraph'] = true;
	$og_array = array(
		'fb:app_id'		=>	$vbulletin->options['facebookappid'],
		'og:site_name'	=>	$vbulletin->options['bbtitle'],
		'og:description'=>	$vbulletin->options['description'],
		'og:url'		=>	$vbulletin->options['bburl'],
		'og:type'		=>	'website'
	);

	// use the feed image if there is one
	if (!empty($vbulletin->options['facebookfeedimageurl']))
	{
		$og_array['og:image'] = $vbulletin->options['facebookfeedimageurl'];
	}

There is no og:title reference anywhere in that file. I'm very much confused as to why you are seeing it there when I cannot.

 

[horseguards]

I have no idea...

Anyone else having a similar problem?

 

[Fillip H.]

I also spoke to someone who works at IB and they are also unable to find og:title anywhere in the vB product.
