I have a wordpress website with a survey that is shareable using social sharing plugins (I currently have mashshare as well as a hand coded button and both have the same issue). This survey is hardcoded in PHP file so none of its contents can bee seen in the visual/text tabs of wordpress.
My problem is that when I change the share image and the text, both do not update when I share them to facebook. I can even delete the text and place a new one in and it will only show the original image and text and will not update.
i have a developer in india that claims he "fixed" this issue but he somehow got it to refresh one time. The problem still persists when I attempt to change the image or text.
Any idea how he got it to refresh OR how to fix it completely?
by the way, sharing on the rest of the site works perfectly fine.
Facebook cacheds the OG data, it is not meant to be changed the whole time and will even be locked after a while afaik. You can refresh it manually in the debugger: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

We are designing a WP site from a template called Remake, and, after uploading the final versions of the header and footer through a plug in, the mouse (cursor) suddenly disappeared! Can't find an issue inside the code, when we remove the plug in, the cursor appears and thats the only way to fix it BUT we need to use it. (It's happening with any plug in we use...)
I make frequent updates to the website for a small, regional food and wine festival (duxburyfoodandwinefestival.com, built using Wordpress). When I recently went to edit/update the site on Wordpress with information on this year's events, I was (and still am) unable to view existing content in the text editor fields (both visual and text). The text is there when I highlight, but it's all white.
So far, I have tired updating my theme, clearing my browser cache, trying a different browser (two, actually), adding a Google Libraries plugin that online research suggested could help-- nothing has worked. I suspect that there must be something I need to do to the config file via ftp, but I have no experience with this and am feeling pretty stymied. Any ideas from those more knowledgeable than I?
Thanks in advance; I didn't encounter this issue last year, and I'm not sure how to proceed.
One page of content as it appears online
The same page of content in text editor view, content invisible/white
Highlighting show that the text is present, but white on white field-- not useful for editing/composing text
I solved my own issue. My particular problem had to do with the most recent update to WordPress and a conflict with an existing plugin on our site ("WP Memory Load and db size Usage"). I opened a second browser window and systematically tried deactivating one plugin at a time until I reached the problem child (it was last, of course). By refreshing my content editor view in a separate window after each plugin deactivation, I was able to isolate the problem plugin. When I deactivated the plugin in question and refreshed my content editor view, the text returned to black/visible in both visual and html text views. I am now operating as-normal with that single plugin deactivated.
I'm having an issue with my website http://www.ben-drury.co.uk/ (I know the content sounds dumb, but it's my first attempt at a portfolio and it's not finished) where the formatting of the text is very peculiar under a specific set of circumstances.
When loading any post or page in Google Chrome, if I remain in the tab for the duration of the loading it looks like the image below, which is perfect and exactly what I want.
However if I start loading the webpage in a new tab and don't instantly navigate to that new tab, or indeed if I refresh the page and navigate away from the tab, when I come back it looks like the image below.
Interestingly it seems to work absolutely fine in Internet Explorer and Firefox, so initially I thought that it might be an issue with my installation of Google Chrome. However testing it on other computers resulted in the same thing happening, and a variety of different ways of phrasing the issue has turned up very little.
So essentially, how do I fix it for Google Chrome users?
(For those that cannot see the images, the text in the post placed as an example runs outside of the box it should be displayed in and often lines appear over the top of each other around hyper links.)
Update:
I've managed to fix the issue for pages by removing the justified alignment of the text. However I have made said change to the posts as well yet the problem persists for them.
So after a little more delving into the issue, I came to the conclusion that not only was the idea of web safe fonts actually a load of miss-represented nonsense, but that Google fonts might be the way to go. After installing a plugin for Google fonts onto WordPress and making all my posts use one by default, my problem has been entirely resolved and I can even have justified text on my posts and pages.
I have a strange problem and my PM requires me to fix it. None of my colleagues could help me.
I've added a functionality to existing ASP.NET WebForms page. I involves a button to share the link by facebook. But when sharing in someone's profile a strange image of Adobe is appearing:
Undesired Image
It is even more strange that after a few seconds it disappeares. Tried everything - to give a parameter to the facebook URL with images[0], also from the meta tags in the master page. No result. Supposed the facebook may have cached the link, but when I tried from my home PC the result was the same.
Any advice how to remove the adobe pic?
I'm building a contact form for a mobile website in HTML5 and CSS. It is the same form I use on all mobile website and after not working for 5 hours I pulled the code straight from a working site I built and it still doesn't work properly.
The issue is when you go to the contact page it shows the contact form, but with the labels centered and the submit button image isn't showing up. I must refresh for it to bring up the correct CSS file to align the text left and show the submit button. Initially I thought it was from a CSS/JS conflict with my menu at the top so I pulled that and it still causes the same problem. I have cleared the cashe on my phone and web browsers and they all work the same.
Here is the link: www.lpokc.org/mobi/contact.php after going to this page hit refresh and you will see the difference.
My question is, is this a caching issue, is it server side issue, or is it a conflict in my coding. I'm not good with posting the code on this site but if you go to the mobile site from your web browser you can just right click and view source to see my code. I have a boiler plate html core file with boiler plate CSS and custom CSS.
Is there some sort of script I could use to make this page auto refresh one time on page load then not again after the reload? I don't want to use an improper fix like this but I have been working on this issue for a day.
The left side is before refresh. I have pulled the code from the site now but I think it was a js conflict because it was auto loading the css from the menu when the link for any page was clicked.
I'm seeing it fine on my end. Seems to work flawlessly, but if you are still having a problem, you could either use cookie or session variables. If the variable does not exist, you can use the php function header( 'Location: http://www.lpokc.org/mobi/contact.php' ) ; to "refresh" the page. It's actually just a redirect command, but if you are sending them back to the page they are on, it is pretty much the same thing as a refresh.
It was a conflicting issue with my menu JS/CSS. I pulled it and now everything works fine.
