Facebook Open Graph not clearing cache

发布于 2011-04-25 08:23:07

I'm having troubles with my meta tags with Open Graph. It seems as though Facebook is caching old values of my meta tags. Old values for Attributes og:title and og:url are still used, even though I have changed them already.

I ran Lint on a page in my site, and this appeared:

Notice that there are two values for og:title and og:url, and the last one prevailed. However, The last two entries are the OLD entries that I used for this site. I am now currently using these meta tags (you can verify if you view the source of the HTML):

<meta property="og:title" content="Smart og rummelig pusletaske fra Petit Amour med god plads til alt &#8211; værdi 1.099 kr &#8211; køb nu kun 599 kr   "/>
<meta property="og:description" content="Pinq.dk - Det gode liv for det halve"/>
<meta property="og:type" content="product"/>
<meta property="og:url" content="http://pinq.dk/tilbud/landsdaekkende/lissy/"/>
<meta property="og:image" content="http://pinq.dk/wp-content/themes/pinq/images/logo-top.png"/>
<meta property="og:site_name" content="Pinq" />
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="161840830532004" />

Why is Facebook caching og:title and og:url? Is anyone experiencing the same issue?

  1. Go to http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
  2. Enter the URL following by fbrefresh=CAN_BE_ANYTHING

Examples:

  1. http://www.example.com?fbrefresh=CAN_BE_ANYTHING
  2. http://www.example.com?postid=1234&fbrefresh=CAN_BE_ANYTHING
  3. OR visit: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http://www.example.com/?p=3568&fbrefresh=89127348912

I was having the same issue last night, and I got this solution from some website.

Facebook saves your cache thumbnail. It won't refresh even if you delete the thumnail/image from your server. But Facebook allows you to refresh by using fbrefresh

I hope this helps.
