TOPIC: Facebook takes a module image not K2 item image

Facebook takes a module image not K2 item image 6 years 8 months ago #5723

Hi,
we noticed this month (July) that Facebook started to use an image from module position, not from the K2 item we post with JO K2 Auto Facebook component. We just updated to 4.0 version to see if this would fix the issue, but it doesn't fix this.

Here an example of post done today:
www.kuudesaisti.net/voimaelaimet/voimaelaeimenae-sammakko
we posted this and image should be this one:
www.kuudesaisti.net/media/k2/items/cache...908d48c0e44ec_XL.jpg
But insted it uses the image from the module position (not K2 item):
www.kuudesaisti.net/images/mainokset/ilm...-kuudesaisti.net.jpg

www.facebook.com/KuudesaistiNet

This did not happen in the beginning of June, but started happening about 2-3 weeks ago. What has changed? We have not done any updates on the website due to being on holidays. Also the 4.0 version of the component did not fix the issue. Can you please check what is causing Facebook to use a module position (first image) rather than the article image. Thanks!

Hi,
the parameters/Social and image size was set to Extra Small not Extra Large. I have changed it to Small which is max 200px wide. Still no change. I also checked the Category image settings and all are now SMALL so max 200Px. Still sharing the K2 items results in showing MODULE IMAGE (First image on the page), NOT THE K2 Item image (small or otherwise). No K2 image is now being used in sharing the k2 item.

So this did not help. :(

hello
we have the same problem with the image,
but on top of that, the URL is incorrect too. we use latest K2 auto FB (4.0) and J3.6.5 and also SH404SEF (but I have tried to disable this, still no success).
your extension adds something like: ...item/100262/... (item and item ID) into the URL which makes it break

right now your Auto K2 facebok extension does not work any more for us.

can you please fix this urgently?
