MrFish Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 A website I'm working on have FB Like buttons on home's pages but when you click them it doesn't pull the right info into facebook. For some pages it doesn't even pull the right page. On the pages that do pull the right content we would like it to pull more accurate information about the page instead of the first image on the page. Page with URL that does not work-http://www.napolitanohomes.com/Home-Details?inv=19 Page with URL that DOES work-http://www.napolitanohomes.com/913B-Vineyard-Place So I've been looking into this and this is what I found. Originally I thought Facebook was accessing the page and dynamically pulling out content and the exact url you were liking. So while trying to figure out why it was pulling the wrong url I setup a script that logged the request url and the user agent of anything that accessed that page. With this I found that when you like a page facebook does not actually access that page but already has some information about it in their databases. Also, Home-Details takes you to a completely different page then Home-Details?inv=19 (Home-Details is a redirect) and Facebook is assuming you're talking about the first URL and when you like the second. So what I need to do is- 1. Get Facebook to "like" the entire correct url instead of the first half.2. Get Facebook to load more accurate information. Once I make these changes will I have to wait for Facebook to revisit these pages and get the correct information out of them? How long should I expect this to take?
