      Released v1.4 to fix the below Facebook limitation by adding og:image:width and og:image:height meta tags.

      Customers who purchased this mod should receive an email containing the download link.

        During the update my site got hung up on the 'please wait' update screen. Eventually I opened a new tab to see that the product said it was version 1.4 and it seems to be working just fine. I guess it was just a hang up with vbulletin itself not moving past that screen.

        I checked the sources on a pre-update article and a post-update article on my site and both seem to have the proper tags including the new height and width ones.

        BTW: I initially tried to post the above as a reply not a comment (literally copied and pasted) but this site said "Sorry, you are not allowed to insert external links in posts." I literally have no idea what in my post there could even be considered a link.

      I'm getting this error at the top of my home page;

      Code:
      Warning: getimagesize(https://apco-atlantic.org/filedata/fetch?type=large&id=788): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found in /xxxxxxxx/opengraphmod.php on line 11
      Is this directly related to this mod? Not sure what the issue is.

        I think this was a conflict between this mod and the changes vB made. I have disabled the mod and will monitor.

          The image URL is not a valid image as it returns "Invalid File specified" error.



          That's the issue that affects this mod.

            I was using a .png file that was still working even when the error message appeared. Strange.

            I'm not sure what happened, either the version update, or I missed something when I did a directory delete and new install after the zero day issue. In any event, it appears it is grabbing my site logo, and not the image I have set to default share image.

            Anyone else having an issue?

              PM me the Order ID or the Paypal email you used to purchase this mod.

            Does the version now included with vB have a setting to define the default image used as well or is that an added feature of your mod that vB does not have yet by default? This compatible with Cloud?

              No. That's totally different.

            Does this mod still apply to 5.7.x?

            This mod has been working great for us! It has made cross-posting between our forum and our facebook groups flawless - almost.

            It works great for our public forum section, but we use groups extensively (for each club chapter). The topics and posts in the groups are members-only, but the groups themselves are visible to the the public. So if one of our chapter directors tries to share a topic inside of their group (chapter) to Facebook, then the default website meta image shows up on Facebook. What would be nice is to have it show the group icon (chapter logo) instead of immediately defaulting back to the generic website image. Would that be too difficult to achieve? You can check us out at tearjerkers.net

            Hope this makes sense. Thanks for all your work!

              tearjerkers, thanks for your request. I'll look into that. That's a good feature to have for groups.

                As an aside, I noticed your forum is using vB 5.7.2. I recommend upgrading to 5.7.5 PL2 to patch the security vulnerabilities found in vB5.

              tearjerkers, I'm almost done but I want to test it first on a live site with groups and/or blogs. Do you want to be part of it?
