    Hi Everyone,

    I have some Problems with the Open Graph Tags.
    I use the genesis Framework, which works really fine.
    I installed the Yoast Plugin and added all Open Graph Tags I wanted to use.

    Yoast filled up the source code with the right parameters, but when I want to do a post on Facebook with a link, Facebook don't get the informations of the Open Graph tags.
    When I do the same on Google+ it works perfectly.

    I already tried a lot of things, but nothing works for FB.
    Do someone have any suggestion, what the problem might be?

    When I use the debbuger of Facebook it says:

    Response Code 206
    Inferred Property : The 'og:url' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags

    Really not sure there, haven't used it yet myself. Taking a stab in the dark here, did you link your WordPress account with the Facebook page?

    "Lastly, go to your personal WordPress profile (just click on your name top right in the settings) and add a link to your Facebook profile if you want to associate your Facebook profile with your content. If you do, be sure to also enable the “Follow” functionality on Facebook."

    If that isn't it, and you're sure the plugin is updated / all information in the required fields is completed, I'd contact Yoast on Twitter or the website, and report the issue.

    Read the Yoast documentation. There's a tab on each page and post in the admin called "Social" and that is where you put the image for the post if the post or page doesn't have one or if the size is wrong for the specific api.

    Then you would clear your cache and open up the og debugger tools to re-scrape the data:
    https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

    Look up (google best open graph size for facebook) the appropriate sizes that Facebook and other social networks use, set new image sizes if necessary in your functions, and then put the images in the social field settings so that you don't have to re-generate your thumbnails.

    I had a problem similar to this as well. Reading the Yoast documentation helped me out. I also had to clear my cache.
