    When I post a URL link in Facebook to a page on my Agent Press V2 page, the text is being pulled from a side bar widget. Not the body of the post. Is there somewhere I can explicitly set where this is being pulled from?

    Example->

    It looks to me like you are creating that page content with an IDX plugin. That content is never pulled by Facebook that I am aware of.

    It looks for the first "real" content that is on that page which is your sidebar.

    You would need to add "real" content to that page. You can add it above or below your IDX code. Then that will be pulled by Facebook. You will also probably need to add a featured image for FB to use.
    You only need to use a few sentences, and you would only need to do this for those pages with your featured listings.
