Sharing an image

02 Jan 2015, 06:26

Hello guys....

Trying to share an image in Facebook being poped-up

So i copy the link that i see in imagevue
Code
http://aperture.gr/assortments/year/2015/january/?pop:1-365
but then facebook interprets the above link as
Code
http://aperture.gr/assortments/year/2015/january/?pop%3A1-365
and redirects at the folder contents and not the actual image

Thanks :)

Thanks, I will look into this ... Version 0.11 (not forthcoming 0.10), will include a new popup window and a new URL method, so this will have to be re-configured anyway. Also, for 0.11, we will add some improved sharing option.

Hi

A funny thing happens when I share to facebook. I have a custom preview (thumb.jpg) in the index folder. It showed up and then poof switched to the default preview image which I had previously deleted from that folder. How did it do that? Is this a bug? is it pulling that image from somewhere else? I keep trying but am confused as to why it would not work when sharing my page. Is there a work around for showing the correct thumbnails on facebook?

Thanks I'm enjoying the new app! :mrgreen:
This is fun!

link? I am guessing that you are just experiencing some facebook cache mechanism, as facebook often caches preview image for pages.
