I have the same question. I am considering migrating from iWeb to EverWeb mainly because, in addition to the other enhancements, there are two things I must constantly edit or re-add using an HTML editor like TextWrangler each time I publish with iWeb. I must add the favicon coding (I have it three different ways to make sure it shows up in Safari mostly) and also the Facebook Preview Pic that is shown when someone likes it or posts the URL on their Facebook timeline. I know EverWeb can handle the favicon issue, but what about the Facebook Preview Pic? Currently, this is the two lines of separate code I must re-add after each publication: Last edit 10 years ago |

To add an image to your page that Facebook will use when it is shared do the following; 1. Add an image you want to use to your Assets list 2. Paste this code into the Head Code section in your Publish Settings screen's Head Code field; <meta property="go:image" content="FILEPATH"> 3. Right click on the Asset you want to use for you image and select 'Copy Relative Path' 4. Replace the FILEPATH in the above code with what is in your clipboard 5. Publish your site If it doesn't work right away quit your browser and try again. Sometimes it takes a few hours for you Facebook to recognize this tag.

Thanks for the help! I will try that when I get a chance. ...now, any clue as to why I was unable to post code here, with or without the code tags?? |

To post code in this forum you need to change all the forward/back arrows < > to the appropriate HTML entity. You may find it easier to use THIS website to do the conversion if you are trying to post a lot of code. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Like this? Let me see if it works: [code]<link rel="image_src" href="http://mywebsite/facebook%20preview%20pic.jpg" /> <meta property="og:image" content="http://mywebsite/facebook%20preview%20pic.jpg" />[/code] |

Thanks for the tip. I converted it then posted it, and then as you can see the < > symbols reappeared again as normal. But why do the actual [code] tags show, and why have I never had to do this with any other forum over many years until now, especially since this is set up just like the others and tells you to use [code] tags. |

The code tags haven't worked since this new version of the forum was introduced. You just need to write code as though you were writing it so that it will appear as text in an HTML doc - at least that's what I do. Another obvious screw up is when a poster uses an apostrophe in the post heading. It appears as the equivalent HTML entity. I think it has been done deliberately to test our skill and cunning - or lack of! ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

| Thanks for clarifying. I didn't realize you built these forums yourself instead of using a pre-determined forum template like Jive. I didn't get notices of a response to the last few posts since my last one and just discovered them when re-visiting the thread on my own. I need to check to make sure I'm still subscribed to or "watching" this thread I guess. | |

Quote: I can not put the image according your help...:S You wrote the code incorrectly. You wrote go:image instead of og:image Quote: I need to check to make sure I'm still subscribed to or "watching" this thread I guess. You will only get one notification of a response until you visit the forums again. So if you get one notification of a response and don't visit the forum (while logged in) you won't get another one. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |
