• Hello!
    I’ve noticed this problem long ago and it is still in effect. While I write new WP post, permalink is automatically generated from post title (I use nice permalinks: /%category%/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/), that is all fine. But, while still writing this post, if I edit this auto-generated permalink from, say:

    http://www.mysite.com/stuff/2014/10/08/autogenerated-ugly-permalink/

    to something like:

    http://www.mysite.com/stuff/2014/10/08/autogenerated-nice-permalink/

    Facebook no longer can generate preview after pasting this new URL in Facebook’s Status text area.

    On the other hand, if you copy that old auto-generated permalink and paste it into Facebook, preview generator does it’s magic. With OLD permalink, which is now obsolete.

    I repeat – Facebook likes auto-generated old permalink and dislikes new permalink. I also tried to give Facebook an ugly permalink, ie:

    http://www.mysite.com/?p=123

    But Facebook still does not generate any preview.

    Does somebody have a clue about this silly, well, if I may say – BUG?

    Thanx in advance.
