Hello i get a strange thing happening when i share my website to facebook for some reason in my page source it has a meta content= (someone's status message) and a meta content= (someone profile picture) /media/com_easysocial/cache/links/pictuirename.png

i've updated my url so you guys can view source, please advise on a fix... i am unable to provide backend access but i can provide site url so you can view page source

Thank you
so... now i have an update...

under facebook in the easysocial settings we have Opengraph

i turn that off and bam profile updates go away when i share my site to facebook... so it is now resolved thank you

Hello Jeff,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Yes, if you put lockdown mode, so that Facebook will not retrieve anything from your Easysocial site.

that does not solve the bug here ... the bug being out of lock down mode its grabbing a picture it should not, sometimes a meta desc = and some random message

Hello Jeff,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Do you mean that you wouldn't like to display the picture retrieve by Facebook?

Can you provide us some screenshot which you referring to "meta desc = and some random message" ?

By the way, we really need access in your site and debugging on this, because this one we can't reproduce on our test site, hope you understand.

so after a lot of digging i have found that anyone who shares a status to " Everyone " there is a meta description of their status they put. and if its with a picture or a-video it will also add that onto the facebook info and that is not something i would like, since i have already set them up its still showing what i have said here, sadly i have my backend on a two step auth so unable to provide backend

Hello Jeff,

Sorry for the late reply. We need your backend to debug this. You might want to temporary disable it.
