I am having some issues with the facebook share function.
Sometimes it will post to facebook automatically other times it will not. It may skip several posts & then do.
I would like all posts to be automatically posted to facebook.

Also when logged in at the back-end. If you press the facebook button to share in the blog entry section.
More often than not it will come up with a error message & you have to do a second time.

The same thing happens at random when posting from the front-end. It appears the post is not posted but it is & have same issue with facebook share.
Hello Mark Geltch,

That's strange, i have checked in your blog page from your Joomla backend, it seems like some of the blog post is unpublished, so it wont't autopost to facebook.
Is it possible provide us with your Joomla backend and facebook access so we can try to reproduce with your issues (Sometimes it will post to facebook automatically other times it will not. It may skip several posts & then do.) please advise.

Hey Arlex,
I do my posts, to schedule publishing over the next few days.
Some when they publish post to facebook, others don't.
I have left the post (Summernats 27 - Day 5 Category: LIFESTYLE TV) not posted to facebook to see if you can duplicate errors!)

Hello Mark Geltch,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Regarding with your pagination redirection 404 error is because you have set many menu item for Easyblog, so the Easyblog can't get a correct URL to load the pagination redirection, mean the URL already messed up. Then i help you set this SEO setting "Use Current Active Menu Itemid" from your backend > Easyblog > Setting > SEO > Standard setting > select "Use Current Active Menu Itemid" > Save
Then you have to delete all the Easyblog component SEF url from your Sh404SEF, let it loading again the correct URL. After you delete all the Easyblog component SEF url , then clear your Joomla cache, and load your page again, it should be work.

Regarding with your facebook autopost issues, we are still investigate and get back to you as soon as possible.

Hello Mark Geltch,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.
First, can i have a permission to delete your all Easyblog SEF URL from your SH404SEF component ( http://screencast.com/t/Ew4MAUzS0HzA )? <- this will be solve your 2 issues now (pagination issues and menu item getting 404 error)
Because i have explained to you why i want to do this, see my previous reply.

Let us help you solve it 1 by 1 your current issues then go through in your facebook autopost issues, is it okay for you? Because I'm suspected that facebook autopost issues (sometime can autopost sometime can't autopost) is related that pagination and menu item getting 404 error.

Hey Arlex,
Yes it is OK to delete the SEF URL, the most important thing for me is that Easyblog runs smoothly & can autopost to facebook.
Thankyou.

Hey Arlex.
The pagination issue is solved Thankyou.
The problems with the automatic posting to facebook is still there, both in front & back end.
I done some new posts & problem still happens. It appears that approx 1 out of 6 posts go to facebook.
Then when manually posting from back end to facebook 1 out of 6 posts work, the rest resulting in an error & I have to post to facebook a second time, the same issue still remains when posting from front end.
Thankyou for working toward a solution.

Hello Mark Geltch,

I'm really sorry that delayed of this reply,
Regarding with your issues, we have tried to do debugging in your site, I'm suspected that is URL redirection issues when you publishing a blog post, the sh404sef do the URL redirection, so the facebook think that is invalid post link, then throw the error. ( I have created a new facebook apps (Miztaken1), now your facebook autoposting is using this apps )

If we try to set the URL valid domain name from the code, then it success to post that is because our site didn't do any redirection. ( http://screencast.com/t/5Mxl45g4u )

$url = 'http://stackideas.com/blog/joomla-social-networking-with-sosyal-and-easysocial';


Is it only sh404sef do the redirection from your side? Please advise.

Hey Arlex,
Yes I only use sh404sef for url redirection.
(Which I don't think I have set any redirections in there.
I am happy to remove that from Joomla if that solves the issues.
I have noticed that the last 2 posts on easyblog have not posted to facebook. (these are both by SACRIFICE)

Hey Arlex,
I have removed & uninstalled sh404sef. Scheduled posts are still not posting to Facebook.
I will attempt some new posts also to see if they post and if I continue to get error messages.

I need to get easyblog to automatically post each post to facebook and not have errors when others post items.

Hello Mark,

I'm sorry that delayed of this reply and make you inconvenience around 1 month,
I have help you solved that error message issues, it should work fine when you publishing a blog post.

Regarding with your Facebook autopost with scheduling blog post issues :
I have tried to testing scheduling blog post set to different minute at the same day, then it success to autopost to Facebook.
Example : set scheduling for the 5 different blog post to 02.00PM, 02.03PM, 02.06PM, 02.09PM, 02.12PM
Please refer back to us if create new scheduling blog post result is not same with me using different time.

But i'm not sure that, we are still investigate about this issues if set to same time then the result only some of the blog post can success autopost to Facebook.

Hey Arlex,
Automatic Blog Post is working really well and error messages have now gone.
The 1 request I have is in facebook if you could change Miztaken222 to Miztaken, for branding reasons.
Thankyou.

Hello Mark Geltch,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Yes, the currently your side is using this Facebook apps "Miztaken222", can i rename of your facebook apps "Miztaken" to another name first? Because the Facebook apps can't make it same name with the "Miztaken".
