(HELP) Facebook url link showing mistake

[felixpixel]

Dear all Prestashop Master.
I've been update my site using prestashop 1.5. everything looks fine until i try to put my homepage url inside the facebook comment.
Somehow the link refer to my facebook page rather than my site URL.
 

Could you please suggest me how to fix this issue ?

 

For example you can try to put http://ngedolapa.com or www.ngedolapa.com on your facebook status, and you can see that the link refer to my facebook page.

Thanks in advance for your help and support.

 

Regards,

Acep J

NGEDOLAPA.com

Hi vexia, could you please show me how to do it the proper way.

I've been trying to follow some tutor about setting OG tags, but it's not work.

i put og code before </head> tag of my folder themes header.tpl.

And the site cannot open at all.

i don't know any working tutorial related to 1.5 version, but i know addon:

http://addons.prestashop.com/en/seo-prestashop-modules/3877-facebook-open-graph-tags.html

unfortunately, not free. or this one: facebook open graph tags

[felixpixel]

thanks anyway, any other module that would be free?

[jordiob]

if you manage wih code, put this on your header.tpl

 

<meta property="og:title" content="{$meta_title|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" />
<meta property="og:description" content="{$meta_description|escape:html:'UTF-8'}" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://url-to-the-image-you-want-to-show.jpg" />

remember that if you use this code, all of your product pages will have the same image, description and image, the other pages aswell

Are there any possibilities to avoid the same image for every product?

There are, as long as you define it on the code. You can use the same code for the product pages and obtain the product image for every product (categories pages as well) but, in the case of non-image related pages (cms, new-products, best-sellers) you have to write the conditions on the code:

if page is new-products, fill the image with this particular URL

if page is bestsellers, fill the image with this particular URL

 

and so on

Thanks in advance

Hi! the code is on the ebook: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/256896-free-ebook-10-tips-to-improve-your-prestashop%E2%80%99s-seo/

[vekia]

Hi! the code is on the ebook: XXX

 

really? where!?

i checked it and i can't see it there

[jordiob]

Sorry, my mistake, I thought it was there. There's a link on the ebook to the post that explains the how-to:

1- how to integrate Open Graph in Prestashop: http://bit.ly/17VfQSr

 

what I do is put this on the product page

<meta property="og:title" content="{$meta_title}" />
<meta property="og:description" content="{$meta_description}" />
{if $have_image}<meta property="og:image" content="{$link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $cover.id_image, 'large_default')}" />{/if}

So "if" product has an image, the og:image tag is filled with the image URL (the default image, of course)

[vekia]

ok

and what about other page like categories, cms, homepage?

it's not as easy as it seems ;p it's necessary to create several if conditions etc.

btw. if variable $product will not exist, it will spawn an error probably ($product variable is not defined for example on cms pages)

[jordiob]

Yup, it's no easy indeed. I'm sure someone build an addon for that, somewhere
