Open Graph - fb:app_id not included in meta tags

I've added the FB app ID to the plugin settings but still keep getting this error in FB Debugger.

"fb:app_id hasn't been included in the meta tags. Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog. Otherwise, the default app id( 966242223397117 ) will be assigned."

This is happening on all pages but you can view the source code here: basstreamradio.org/blog/1-return-of-basstream

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Hi Jan,

I have the same issue. I start using your plugin and come up with this error.

You can check my open graph on:
http://www.dnevni.rs/magazin/zdravlje/1 ... inuse.html

Everything is ok, BUT when I go to fb debugg page:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

I have this error:
fb:app_id hasn't been included in the meta tags. Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app.

Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog. Otherwise, the default app id( 966242223397117 ) will be assigned.

As you can see my app id is included but fb keep showing this error. Any idea?

Hi, on your site the app id is included in the html source code:

Code: Select all

<meta name="og:title" content="Bosiljak- Lek za sinuse" />
  <meta name="og:type" content="article" />
  <meta name="og:image" content="http://www.dnevni.rs/images/cache/d0f06c89da322549ddf4b9344a7cad75_w670_h436_cp.jpg" />
  <meta name="og:url" content="http://www.dnevni.rs/magazin/zdravlje/19515-bosiljak-lek-za-sinuse.html" />
  <meta name="og:site_name" content="Dnevni.rs" />
  <meta name="og:description" content="Ako ste se odlučili da isprobate bosiljak kao lek, odlično će poslužiti biljka u svežem stanju ukoliko je dodajete vašim salatima i omiljenim jelima.
" />
  <meta name="fb:app_id" content="547326438619167" />

So not sure what the error says :idea:

Yeah I know its there but cant figure it out why fb keeps showing this error.

Maybe its because of tag position?

I think I found a solution - there is nothing wrong with your plugin as we knew already.

You need to go to FB apps, find your app and klick "Choose your platform". Select website and add your domain/site.

I think thats it :)
