Hi, the url of the like button must be the canonical url.
Your server call first an url, then redirect to an other page.
You should verify that the url of the like button is the good one.
Before it dident come up a “Post in facebook” box to fill in a comment when I “like”, I dont know what I did to activate it? How do I take it away?
You should disable xfbml for the like button. use iframe instead.
Hi,
Thank you for your answer, I got more clarity what I am dealing with and I thought I would solve my problem, I have been study canonical and been trying get my head around without success. I appreciate if you could give me some more directions how to get my problem solved.
Can the problem have something to do with my Greg’s SEO plugin, also using Meta. They might interfere with each-others?
When I “testing” my site http://www.blacklight-arts.com on Facebook Lint test http://developers.facebook.com/tools/access_token/lint
I get:
Errors that must be fixed: Website inaccessible
I can find anywhere how to fix this. its my metas that are fucked?
I can still not figure out what specific canonical url should I put under settings of your plugin “Default Url to like“
Getting little bit tired to setup this little “simple” like button. Help would help.
David
Default Url to like can be blank, it’s only if you add like button manually, so you need to fill this field if you do not specify url in like button.
Error 403, Your site make a redirection. this is not visible by users, but it’s seems he redirect to an other page. and Facebook only scroll the first one.
note that in openGraph tags, you should use url without backslash.
http://www.blacklight-arts.com/ => No
http://www.blacklight-arts.com => Yes
A like button is not “simple”, it’s very powerfull social tool.
And it’s complicated to get it work, because this plugin implements all the best from facebook for your site.
Did you use openGraph in the plugin ?
Hi.
Thanks for you help!
I have open graph activated,.In the settings for AWD plugin I am using “Add “Like” button to custom post types” and I use the same in the settings in open graph. I am editing in each post to get the tags writen to “custom fields” the meta tags are there but I still get error message on facebook debugger lint site:
Website inaccessible: The page at blacklight-arts.com could not be reached because the server returned status code 403.
Missing Required Property The og:url property is required, but not present.
Missing Required Property The og:type property is required, but not present.
Missing Required Property The og:title property is required, but not present.
In this url I have been editing the open graph as it should be.

I guess I am doing something wrong with my canonical, but I dont know what to do? The redirection is wrong.
You told me to not write any backslash in url in open graps. Where do I actually need to put an URL in open graph?
David
This problem come from your server…
Each time facebook try to get a page on your site, it seems your server do not let facebook read your pages. and send a 403 error code.
Or maybe some ressources that are calling in your code are missing.
You should contact your host.
Hi
I thought it was some problem with the server.
But I have a like box on the site and that one works good.
you can find it here:

So if it is not the server that cause the problem, which settings should I then modify?
David
Like box is not the same thing.
A like box work with the url of a facebook page.
So your server will never been call by a like box.
When a user click on the like buton (not in like box) facebook will check if url exists in cache.
If not he will fetch your meta og tags by calling your server.
if your server responds with a redirect 403 before return the good datas, facebook will not know that.
And i think it’s not good for your SEO…
