I am receiving 404 errors (showing on Google search console)that somehow relate to Facebook.
eg http://www.beerandcroissants.com/staying-in-mykonos-myconian-k-hotel/room-at-myconian-k-hotel-mykonos/%22https:/www.facebook.com/pages/Beer-and-croissants/1423705111261254
What it seems to be doing is taking one link (eg part of the whole link above) which relates to a photo on my blog and then appending the facebook page url. So, if I take the first part of the link above
(before the facebook part starts) I get a perfectly good link through to my site. If I take the second part (where the facebook link starts) then it takes me to my FB page. Again fine.
Why are these two linking together like this as it is this that seems to be causing the 404. Is it something in my settings. It's only just started happening.
Going to facebook directly and clicking on my post links takes me to the correct part of my blog.
I am not sure how to fix this. There are no broken links attached in google for me to view either. They keep happening every day. I now have 295 crawl errors and growing.
Would appreciate any help that can be given to lead me in the right direction.
I've had this as a suggestion....but don't know where to look for this code....
I'd say it may be coming from the following code on :staying-in-mykonos-myconian-k-hotel/room-at-myconian-k-hotel-mykonos/
It's also likely this is carried through the entire site.

Note the " in the URL before https://www.facebook
I suggest you go through your code looking for similar issues.
Could someone please assist me if they are able.
Greatly appreciated.
thanks

Every times I post any web page from my website on facebook, I expect its main image to be displayed for better communication rank and this is ok in the preview page, when I'm pasting the post url immediatly as you can realize it from the attached image. but when it's saved, the images goes off as you can see from another attached image.
After searching a while on google in order to know what is wrong with my web page, I realize that the page can be debugged via this tool provided by facebook, but even when I followed all the recommended step, I still face the same issue. (anyone can try it and see the result).
When continuing my research I find that there would be some issues with og:image as facebook debugger shows in the following message:
Inferred Property
The 'og:image' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags. but the truth is that I really don't know what to do exactly to fix this.
Any help will be appreciated.
This problem exists for all pages on this site. The meta tags appear correct but whether you use the share link on the site, or try to share direct on FB, the image, title and description are not used.
There must be a legitimate issue as the Sharing Debugger also shows an empty/plain sharing dialog. But the Facebook share debugger isn’t given me any helpful info. It sometimes shows a 302, which I don’t understand as there is no redirect on the site. Refreshing the scrape sometimes shows an error Unknown Image Error, which also doesn’t seem to be a legitimate issue.
Almost always the Facebook share debugger shows a 302 the first time and then follows with other unhelpful errors.
Maybe a DNS issue, weird that it would be site wide.

Any and all help is very appreciated.
Try debugging your page URL on below link:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
Once you scan your URL, on the link I provided, you will see "Warnings That Should Be Fixed" section. Try resolving warnings mentioned in that section.
Hope this will help you!
I've got a site that has multiple share buttons on entries in a WordPress site.
We designed this so there are no individual entries to view, they're Podcasts and videos. The listing page has a minimum of 10 entries, each with share buttons.
Currently the share links and titles are working correctly. But the page is not recognizing the og:image, and instead is picking up the default logo for the site itself.
I read another post on Stack Overflow that said it might be an issue for LinkedIn if the image is utilizing SSL for the link. But I just find that hard to believe.
The other issue I'm struggling with, the docs say once an image is scraped it stays cached for approximately 7 days.
I had an issue with FaceBook and there's a debugger that allows you to rescrape the page which let's me verify my changes worked.
My two questions are, is there something other than the og:image i should be specifying? since I can't specify it per post, it's in the head of the page itself, i would think it would pick that up. No?
Second, is there a way a developer can re-check after the meta info has been changed to see if the changes worked, without having to wait the TTL on the cache?
try this:
url/link?blah=1
url/link?blah=2
url/link?blah=3
to get around the cache.
This should trick it into thinking its a new page each time.
Can i get a link to test?
Anthony Walz posted the correct answer. Through email he also helped another problem i had which corrected a new issue i didn't realize I had until i looked.
my LinkedIn shares were not picking up the show title, they were picking up the page description instead (i have several podcasts showing on one page, we don't use individual post pages, they all play from the listing.)
he pointed me to the developer docs on formatting sharing links
Which gives a real world example - here:
https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=http://developer.linkedin.com&title=LinkedIn%20Developer%20Network
&summary=My%20favorite%20developer%20program&source=LinkedIn
Thanks a ton for assist Anthony!
Normally when I add a html piece to my site, it will create a box that lets me know it's there. It' finicky though and the box didnt show up. So I added the html again, and it didnt tell me it was there. So I published the website and then went to a few pages to see if it worked. It did, and now each page is being tracked multiple times. Then I had the bright idea to redo the tracking code and add that hoping the new code would only be seen once. Not only is it picking up the new code, but the old one as well. Each pageview is being seen as three.
And like I said, my html builder blocks are not showing up on my builder, so I cant get rid of them. Is there a way I can fix this, or do I have to delete my whole file and re-do my analytics? If so, can anyone help me do that?
Tracking code show the real time data or the data of past day.
So if anyone has the above mentioned issue, he need to wait at least 24 hours to get correct reporting through Google Analytic.
I am using the code to place a linkedIn Follow button (generated here https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/follow-company) on this page, http://new.janeirodigital.com (view Client Testimonials section). However, the buttons sometimes show up and sometimes don't.
I have read a little bit of cross domains issues that may cause this, but I am not able to find a workaround to fix this. If you visit that page in Chrome and see the errors console, you'll see a couple of errors like regarding the linked in button, like:
Unsafe Javascript attempt to access frame with URL mysite.com from frame with URL http://platform.linkedin.com/js/....Domains, protocols and ports must match.
Has anybody experienced this problem before?
Any help appreciated
Daniel
The messages you are seeing in the developer console in Chrome are unrelated to your problem. They are an artifact of the cross-domain communication and as you'll notice, you see them for Facebook and Twitter as well on the same page.
That said, viewing your page I am also seeing intermittent 403s for some of the backend calls that the FollowCompany plugin is making. I have alerted our NOC to the issue and they should be investigating now.
Reviewing your page, it seems you have done everything necessary and are set, so once we fix the operational issue you should be good to go.
My apologies for any inconvenience!

I just found that this is happening when there are more than one follow button on the page, if you delete the first one and the second shows without problems but the others have the same problem...
Hope this could help your team Jeremy!!
