    Facebook OG Token Settings

    How do I make it so when sharing a product using AddThis it shares the actual product image, title and description? What are the tokens?

    <meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
    <meta name="twitter:site" content="@TWITTER_ACCOUNT">
    <meta name="twitter:creator" content="@TWITTER_ACCOUNT">
    <meta name="twitter:title" content="&mvt:global:encodedProdName;">
    <meta name="twitter:description" content="&mvte:global:socialText;">
    <meta name="twitter:image:src" content="&mvt:product:image;">
    <meta property="og:title" content="&mvt:global:encodedProdName;" />
    <meta property="og:type" content="product" />
    <meta property="og:image" content="&mvt:product:image;" />
    <meta property="og:url" content="&mvt:global:socialURL;" />
    <meta property="og:site_name" content="&mvte:global:store:name;" />
    <meta property="og:description" content="&mvte:global:socialText;" />

    Those are the correct open graph tags. If you view the source of the page, the og:image should have the path to the product image. If it does not, make sure you are using image type, have a type of "main" and have that image type assigned to the page.

      Thanks for the advice. Could you provide a "for dummies" example?

            Ok this should be fixed.

            You needed two things:

            1. Turn on Product Image Custom Fields Module (under utilities)
            2. Assign the image type of main to the page

            It is worth noting, in the most recent readythemes we changed this logic so the custom field of main does not need to be assigned to the page.

              Yes, it is definitely more involved now. Did you do that already or do I need to do this?

                  Ok. I will test it out. I just tried it and it didn't work.

                      Sometimes facebook is slow to update it.

                      Try putting the URL into this page. It will show you what facebook sees:



                      Once you do that try it again and it should show up. You just have to wait for facebook to update it.
