Hi. Not sure where to start or get help for this but here goes.

I created a blog post today and went to copy and paste the link into facebook but it only shows as if ive shared the Post Template Page... Even though the meta tags and everything is there on the page it only wants to share the Template page itself and not the post. Ive been posting posts for the last 6 months with no issues but for some reason this one just doesnt want to show.

Where would i be able to figure out whats going on.

Cheers

Chris

Nevermind. Figured it out.

If your post is scheduled for 8pm and your server time is -1hr. Then it shows as no page.

Hi Skoobi,

What share icons do you use and how did you setup your og:image etc? Because when I try to share my blogpost on Facebook it only shows my homepage instead of the blog page.

I use the SEO manager plugin which you can set the og: stuff automatically when writing a post. For share buttons i use this code::

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.mydomain.co.uk/blog/{{blogPost.post.slug}}" target="_blank" class="icon ion-social-facebook"></a>

<a href="https://twitter.com/share?url=https://www.mydomain.co.uk/blog/{{blogPost.post.slug}}&amp;hashtags=cloudwales" target="_blank" class="icon ion-social-twitter"></a>

<a href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.mydomain.co.uk/blog/{{blogPost.post.slug}}" target="_blank" class="icon ion-social-google"></a>

The classes are using ion-icons.

Hope that helps
