After editing permalink, Facebook cannot generate preview
-
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:
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.
