After successfully posting my open graph action, the action appears just fine. But in the text, the last thing listed is my object variable name with a colon and then either the link to the object, which displays the title or full url link. SInce this is a bit difficult to explain, I created a screen shot:
The name of my open graph object variable here is "venue" . The venue returned from my server is actually correct. I checked the link just in case again using the debug tool and had no errors. The issue is, It should not be displaying there.
Is this issue happening because my open graph action isn't approved yet? (I'm not done)
When it does happen, I notice all my open graph actions posted are shown in the same way. But then, other times, it will be fine. I will check tomorrow and see if it's still happening but wanted to see if anyone had any insight on what's happening
Found the answer finally. There's an option to hide the object from the news feed.
I'm not an expert on this, but if I understand it correctly, it's to do with the captions. Click on Edit Captions under the Story's details section, it will allow you to set what appears in the next few lines.
So you could do something like
Venue: {song.venue}
This is, of course, assuming that you want to show the venue. If not, your solution works :)

I need to add an extra field to a BizTalk service call.
I added the field as an element in the input and output schemas.
Then I was going to map the input and output in the mapper.
But I was faced with this:
The old fields show as linked and they are working. But there's no visible link. I would like to add the new field and map it the same way and not link it directly.
Anyone knows how this can be linked?
I searched for the old fields in the solution and I couldn't find anything that could explain this. I guess there must be some property I don't know about but I don't see anything either.
The link is done in another page. I forgot you can scroll through pages in biztalk mapper
When posting an item to one's news feed that passes muster with the debugger tool, the preview retrieves an incorrect preview on the first share and correct previews on subsequent shares.
Expected: That the shared link would fetch the og:image-specified image for the shared link on the first pass.
Actual: The first share retrieves a different image from the page. (Oddly, an image that is only 105x100, not even large enough to meet Facebook's image guidelines), and subsequent shares retrieve the correct image specified in og:image. See a screenshot of this in action:
Repro Steps:: Upload an image with a free Droplr account, share the link via a status update and via a comment. Here is a URL I have not shared yet at all, but once it is shared, it will begin to render correctly. So there is 1 free repro :)
Debugging so far: This seems to fail in similar but different ways with status updates versus comments.
Status Updates: If you post an image for the first time as a status update, Facebook hits the following URL: https://www.facebook.com/ajax/composerx/attachment/link/scraper/?scrape_url=http%253A%252F%252Fd.pr%252Fi%252Fj2k7&composerurihash=2. The response object keyed as jsmods.markup[0][1].__html contains markup with an incorrect image of FB-wrapped safe image url of: https\u00253A\u00252F\u00252Fd25ss6wjc6pfq2.cloudfront.net\u00252Fassets\u00252Fdrops\u00252Fstandard\u00252Fpromo-logo-15dd4a0f7b7831e42dd5f976a17d4757.png. Here's a visual representation.
Comments: If you post an image for the first time as a comment, the response's payload.comments[0].attachment.markup.__html key comes back with the same FB-wrapped safe image URL mentioned above. Again, visually.
I'd love to hear if anyone has thoughts on how to get around this or anything we might be doing wrong on our end.
Thanks!
I tried to read everything I could in order not to disturb, but the behavior of the facebook like box plugin is wired.
I must begin with the fact that everything in my facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/tennisitgr/428483287200942) is shown correctly.
When i try to produce the code for the like box plugin from http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/ :
if I am not logged in to facebook i can see only the stream, the
header, and the number of people who liked my page but there are NO
faces (the show faces option is checked..).
if I am logged in to facebook I can see faces but all the faces shown
are duplicate (except mine).
Maybe I have a setting wrong in my page (I checked the permissions..) because when I try to generate the plugin for another page it is shown correctly.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Nikos.
My problem is that when you press the like button on my site it says, you want to like an "untitled document" not my site. I think the reason is that in the early days of testing I forgot to remove the place holder text of "untitled document" and put in something like "This is my pic!, Celebrating people's genius one pic at a time". so now each time somebody likes the page it says. "untitled document".
Is there a way to make it display the current title.
The title seems to have updated correctly when you run this through the url linter. Using the linter refreshes the data Facebook has cached about your website (note that it can only be used once every hour). If you do not see your information updated, consider adding Open Graph Tags to explicitly tell Facebook which information to use for your page.
Additionally, adding yourself as an admin using these tags will allow you to edit the page manually (via Facebook) in the future.
Alright, I fear I may be critiqued for this not being so much of a "programming" question, but I'll ask anyway. I don't do to much in web development-type stuff (OO is what I stick with mostly), so I'm not too keen on exactly how all this CSS, Javascript, SQL, etc works.
The problem: My friend has been trying to quit smoking for a while, but as many smokers do, he seems to only make it so far. He recently posted a status update saying if he had the moral support, he could do it. I simple want to create a link to the "Like" button. I then intend to write a script and simple message all his friends with the link. Is this possible?
Any tips in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. An explanation of how to do this would be divine. An explanation of why I can't do this would be met with a scowling acceptance and a thank-you.
For those who don't have a facebook, here are some pastebins. Anything else you need I'll try to supply
Pastebin of a my facebook.com/homepage page source:
http://paste.uni.cc/19860
Pastebin of his homepage as I see it page source:
http://paste.uni.cc/19860
His update to ctrl+F and see surrounding code:
"would quit smoking if he had the moral support."
Thing that looks to me like the css code for the "like" command
http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/z2FUI/l/8fkujrwg/en_US/151675/css/like/like.css
Will this stop him from smoking? Most likely not, but it can't hurt. Worst case he'll just get a laugh and maybe feel a bit more inclined to drop the cigs.
Appreciate it as always.
The "Like link" is a Javascript-backed element which invokes an AJAX call to the server. It carries a unique ID which is keyed off both the item being "liked" and the user who pulled down the page (in this case, you) to ensure duplicate "likes" are not accidentally submitted and the UI to become out of sync with the DB; and to ensure you can't "like" something on another user's behalf. The case you are describing is indiscernible from a malicious attempt at doing the same thing.
Can you just send them a message with a link to the friend's page and tell them to "Like" the status themselves?
Why not write a Facebook application and plug directly into your own profile. You could invite his friends to your application, which would allow them to support your friend's attempt to quit smoking without having to hack together a script that "clicks" the Like link. The hack could easily be considered malicious.
