facebook share button not sharing image
« on: August 07, 2011, 02:56:47 pm »
Facebook share button in 3.0

When i click on this to test. All that happens is a link to my forums is posted. Is this by design or shouldnt it post a thumbnail and a link to the image in the gallery?

Did i miss a setting somewhere? I dont understand trying to share a photo and only sending people to the forum index

If this is by design can you tell me where i can change the code to show the image or at least the gallery index

Add this can't do anything about since it really is a facebook bug but try this for normal facebook sharing copy this to your themes/default/ folder

Getting same effect, seems might be something with firefox as I am getting a popup or redirect bar for a second and it seems to be redirecting to the forum index. I will check it with IE real fast

I unchecked the firefox redirect notice but it is still redirecting me back to the forum index, just not getting that allow bar any more.

Just to let you know I was able to test this in IE and chrome and got the same result. I just unchecked the option for the time being
