Hello,

When new group is created, double click on social share, choose facebook and there yo see a APP_GROUPS_GROUPS_STREAM_CREATED_GROUP
hello Steve,

Thanks for reporting on this,
Is it possible provide us with some screenshot which part are you see this language string?

Or can you try open this file JoomlaFolder\media\com_easysocial\apps\group\groups\groups.php and modify it

$item->opengraph->addDescription( JText::sprintf( 'APP_GROUPS_GROUPS_STREAM_CREATED_GROUP', $actor->getName(), $group->getName() ) );
//replace with
$item->opengraph->addDescription( JText::sprintf( 'APP_GROUP_GROUPS_STREAM_CREATED_GROUP', $actor->getName(), $group->getName() ) );


And see how it goes?

Hello Steve,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Because I have tested in my locally, it seems like work fine for me in latest version of Easysocial.
However, I have created a new group in your site and click on the social share link, it seems like that facebook pop-up is show correctly without any missing language string. Am i missing something here ? Please advise.

Hello Steve,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Oh, thanks for take your times described again how to reproduce on this,

Can you try download my attachment file and replace in your file -> JoomlaFolder\media\com_easysocial\apps\group\groups\groups.php

And see how it goes?

After apply this file then go to this Facebook debugger tool -> https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
Copy the stream URL and paste in that particular field and see what result are you getting? Keep us updated then.

by the way, your FTP login credential is not working.

Hello Arlex,

Still no result.

FB debbuger show's a few warnings

Inferred Property The 'og:url' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Inferred Property The 'og:title' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Inferred Property The 'og:image' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Mismatch og:url and canonical url og:url tag in the header is not the same URL as rel='canonical' link in the html.

Updated FTP access

Hi,

Facebook share caches old data and you will have to give their server a bit of time to refresh the data. If you were to check it against the Facebook Dev Tool by clicking on "Fetch New Scrape Information", then it will clear off the server cache on Facebook's site to reflect the new data.

However, there is a separate issue where it seems like there are multiple OG tags get added on the site. And for this we need to further debug to locate where the duplication of OG tags come from.

And because you have APC on your site, we cannot proceed to debug on your site as any modification from FTP won't take effect. Is it possible for you to temporarily disable APC?

Hello Jason,

Seems like now it works, i disabled APC now you can debug.
Also if there is set a profile picture for group, and the cover also have few pictures in stream and soundcloud songs it just adds random picture when sharing a group from groups view in facebook, or sometimes not adding any picture.

Hello Steve,

I am not really sure if I am following you here. What do you mean by sharing a group from groups view in Facebook? Can you please provide us with the link that you are sharing? Also, if I get you correctly, you are sharing the link in a group within Facebook, am I correct?

Hello Steve,

I have tried to create a new group and including the avatar and cover, it seems like work fine for me.
Sometime you have to give Facebook time to retrieve the data then the image only will appear.

I've identified an issue with the og tags duplication and have fixed it on your test site.

This is not a critical issue so don't worry about this. This fix will be included in the next release.
