# [Plugin: WP Facebook Open Graph Protocol] Facebook debug tool 'og:title' error

 * Guys, I have tried everything I know to do to correct the following issue with
   no luck.
 * When I try to Facebook share a post on my site some random characters are showing
   on the preview where the description line is supposed to be. After searching 
   through many different forum threads, I finally think I narrowed the issue down
   to a particular plugin I am using: WP Facebook Open Graph Protocol.
 * (I am using the plugin because it’s the only one that I know of that will force
   Facebook to use the same thumbnail with every post I share. All other plugins
   I have found only use a specified thumbnail if no other image is present, which
   is an obvious problem given that there are usually other images present. I love
   said plugin so I really need help sniffing out what’s causing it to act buggy.)
 * Here is the error message that shows after I click “fetch new scrape information”
   using the Facebook debug tool: “Object Missing a Required Value Object at URL‘
   [http://fanjabs.com/blog/2014/12/31/jim-harbaugh-new-head-coach-michigan-wolverines/&#8217](http://fanjabs.com/blog/2014/12/31/jim-harbaugh-new-head-coach-michigan-wolverines/&#8217);
   of type ‘website’ is invalid because a required property ‘og:title’ of type ‘
   string’ was not provided.”
 * The message that shows when I click on “Show existing scrape information”: “Inferred
   Property–The ‘og:url’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value
   can be inferred from other tags.
    Inferred Property–The ‘og:description’ property
   should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.”
 * The plugin author has addressed this issue before, and it looks like the issue
   is usually related to his plugin competing with another plugin that pulls open
   graph meta info. I have tried disabling the SEO Yoast plugin and the WP Super
   Cache plugin, as they have been mentioned on a couple of threads as possibly 
   being the issue. That being said, deactivating them has not worked. I checked
   SEO Yoast to make sure that the “Social” settings were all clear as not to compete
   with Open Graph Protocol plugin as the author suggested, which also didn’t work.
   The only thing that seems to fix the issue for a couple of minutes at a time,
   is to Clear the cache through WP Super Cache.
 * Okay, so obviously I need to try something else, right? Next I thought it might
   be a theme issue, but I’m not finding anything that would point in that direction.
   I have checked the Hearder and Function files and there are no open graph tags
   listed, so I’m guessing that can’t be what’s possibly competing with OGP plugin.
 * Last move left in my brain, I checked the OGP plugin to make sure that I had 
   my app id listed in the required field correctly…no issue there, either.

 * Theme I am using: Parabola/Cryout Creations: [http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/parabola](http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/parabola)
 * Will list all of the plugins I am using upon request.
 * The logical part of my brain is toast. Please help. Thanks in advance.
