error fb debug tool: http://snag.gy/fykm4.jpg
what to do?
Might be temp issue with FB.
I was having trouble sharing stuff a little bit ago (12pm PDT 5/8/15), and it cleared up about 10 minutes ago.
Obviously if you have an og:title tag populated, it can’t be an error for that info missing.
You might retry that now.
still getting the same error
Might be issue with conflict with your FB comments plugin, etc. — pop up on your site super annoying for FB when I’m logged into one of my “pages.” Try turning off plugins to see if conflict; try different page.
Mine is working just fine, btw.
tried different pages and turning off comments and pop up pluggin, still same problem. im glad yours is working fine, mine is not…
Did you try sharing an item and then do the attachment recapture option ?
I had to do that one day this past week for every post, but it works (most of the time).
Sorry not much help 🙂
so i did a whole delete of my site, reinstalled domain with the theme, and still getting countless errors while using facebook debug tool… is there anyone from tagdiv available to help me out with my issue? my site is instacomedy.com and sharing posts on fb is all messed up

Well, you might try adding excerpts on your pages where you’re just using other’s content …
like your example link above – you have no actual content, and so FB tries to load the video you shared …
e.g. — look at your page source:
<meta property="og:description" content="Share on Facebook" />
You need to actually have something in your og tags for FB to scrape properly.
The theme doesn’t manage your Yoast SEO settings, nor does it manage Facebook. With actual content on your page and proper og tags populated there is not an issue sharing on FB with v1.71 of theme aside from the inherent inconsistencies of how FB scrapes material.
Does your example page “share” to FB properly using the twenty-fifteen theme ?
i have 3 sites running the same theme and i dont have a single issue. i just reinstalled this site from scratch so excuse me if i didnt have a chance to fill content… i just put 2 quick links to test sharing. just please if you honestly don’t have a solution to my problem that will fix it, stop writing your opinion and let someone from tagdiv provide me a solution. im really glad your site works for you and that all is gucci for you, im trying to run my business. no disrespect intended whatsoever.
Great, no more help from me, good luck ….
Hi,
Thanks Chris for your help!
@instacomedy
Sorry for the delay! We aren’t working on weekends!
The debugger returns this 404 error and indicates the URL returned a bad HTTP response code: http://screencast.com/t/bTeJhrS1
This might happen due to your server configuration, in some cases this happened due to server security which was blocking ‘Facebook’ so please also address this to your host provider to look into this.
You can also go trough this article and the solution provider there: http://problemsolv.in/solved-facebook-doesnt-fetch-data-when-sharing-url/
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks
