You shouldn’t see any errors with NGFB installed. Open a new thread here http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-facebook for the free version, or a ticket here http://support.ngfb.surniaulula.com/support/tickets/new for the Pro version, and I’ll have a look. 😉

Install a plugin like NGFB, WPSSO, or WordPress SEO, then check the debugger again. I would suggest NGFB if you want some share buttons as well, or WPSSO if you don’t need the share buttons.

NGFB examines the list of active plugins, checks their settings, and issues warnings accordingly. For example, in the case of WordPress SEO, it instructs the user to uncheck specific options in the WordPress SEO settings. So yes, it already does this. 😉

As I said, WordPress SEO only adds a few basic “social” meta tags. Obviously you want to disable those basic meta tags in WordPress SEO to prevent duplicates. 😉

WordPress SEO by Yoast only includes the most basic Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags. NGFB is designed to go beyond those basics and includes video (flash and embed), product, gallery, etc. meta tags. In fact, the combination of WordPress SEO and NGFB together is excellent (NGFB has built-in support for SEO settings from WordPress SEO).

Oh, one more thing. 😉 If you want Open Graph meta tags (and others), but not the social buttons, have a look at WPSSO instead (a fork/child of NGFB).

Hello there!

I’m the author of NGFB Open Graph+, and would have been happy to give you a hand with this in the wordpress.org support forum: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-facebook

A few things come to mind…

– There are no conflicts between NGFB Open Graph+ and WordPress SEO. NGFB specifically tests for other (known) SEO plugins, and issues warning to turn off certain options.

– Unless configured with a large enough default image, NGFB will not add images to index-type webpages unless the first post in that index (or in the search results), has a suitable image.

– Once a URL has been shared on Facebook, you can no longer modify / refresh it’s cache. The errors you are seeing from the Facebook Debugger may have come from its own cache elements, and not based on your current page headers.

– I see you are no longer adding Open Graph meta tags. You may want to reconsider if you care about social engagement. 😉
