Hello

Using: 0.7.94

Under View.PageHeader.Html I put:

meta property="og:image" content="http://www.mysite.com[IMAGELINK]"
enclosed within tags.


... doesn't seem to turn up in the rendered html on a new article.

Any ideas? (trying to get facebook to scrape the correct image).

Thanks...

Alex

Are you saying none of the html displayed in the html? Or are you saying that [IMAGELINK] didn't work?

Nothing at all - nada :)
Does not matter if there is a token in there or not.

Cheers Scott.

did you enclose it? < blah blahblah />

Don't forget to use the FB linter/debugger to check your work:

--- ooops - is see you say it was enclosed.

5.6.3 right now.
Scotts module is simply not parsing anything under View.PageHeader.Html on first appearance, so there is nothing for facebook to check.

Hi Alex,

I tested it in DNN 6.1.1 and was able to put in some text and make it appear in the head section.

I then used your example and it worked (including the token).

So I'm now wondering if it's a cache issue - can you go to host -> host settings -> restart application

This will rule out a cache issue
