    Default Facebook URL Brings back incorrect information

    Hi, I am attempting to include topic page URL's in our company Page Facebook Post. When I type i the URL it does not pring the topic page information and over. Instead it is bringing information from a previous post up. Any idea what the source of the problem is? See the description next to the Tim Smith post at http://www.facebook.com/superscopetech and then compare it to the information on the topic page URL. You can also see the text it is showing by looking at the psot on August 17th, 2011.

    Thanks

    Try running the link through this

    https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

    It will give you any issues that maybe pointing to an incorrect og description

    Another tip is when you enter your page url in the debug tool add this on the end fbrefresh=CAN_BE_ANYTHING so your url would be http://www.superscopetechnologies.co...AN_BE_ANYTHING

    That often resets the cache on your fb link.

    No being a big IT person I am not sure what to do with them yet. I will need to do some research on what it means. I also tried your tip about changing the URL to reset the cache but it did not appear to take the URL.

    Thanks again for your suggestions.
