Links and images back to website not correct

whitebicycle May 02, 2012 08:02AM EDT

HI

the plugin does not appear to be pulling back the right image or link to our website when Sharing on Facebook. here is a sample product. when i click on the share button and then Facebook it will post to my profile. However, it is the wrong image (thumbnails are wrong as well) and the URL link is wrong. the title etc is correct, but link is wrong.

Can you advise as to what the problem is?

thanks

Facebook doesn't work like the other AddThis buttons. Instead of accepting parameters that we pass it, Facebook requests the URL you're sharing and gets the data it displays from the meta and link tags in the header. To control how your page is shared on Facebook you should use OpenGraph tags which are described in Facebook's documentation here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/

Here's Facebook's report on what it's seeing when it scrapes your URL: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.toriswardrobe.com%2Fpd0000837601_Hudson-Dark-Denim-Jeans-Baby-Bootcut.html
