New Videos Not Showing Up In Video Lists


Design and Skin Customization

I am using this to create lists of videos
{jrSeamless_list modules="jrVideo,jrVimeo,jrYouTube" order_by="_created numerical_desc" require_image="video_image" pagebreak=28 page=$_post.p pager=true template=$tpl}  

you can see the output here
http://drillingahead.com/videos

I just added a new video from youtube using the youtube URL
as you can see its uploaded and playing here
http://drillingahead.com/drilling-ahead/youtube/64

The problem is its not showing up in any of the lists created with seamless
ie-
Most Recent
All Videos
etc

I have reset the site cache- I have reset the browser cache- then I ran an integrity check...still the video is not available in the lists
Why?

Editing Facebook Profile Page Metadata


Using Jamroom

using the system we use now...
If you go to https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

and enter MY url

http://drillingahead.com

then select "FETCH NEW SCRAPE INFORMATION"

You will see FIFTY images that jr/sharethis are presenting to facebook..NONE of these 50 images are an image I want associated with my sites home page when someone shares it..

I prefer to enter the Title/Description/Image of each of my pages myself- currently JR only supports this in pages made with templates....but MOST of my pages are made with the Site Builder-Menu function

I am not trashing the system- I am just trying to explain the problem clearly to better help with the solution

Editing Facebook Profile Page Metadata


Using Jamroom

Does the tool you link to do the same as the Facebook Debugger?
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

Should note that when you create content and add it to a FB page just testing or otherwise Facebook caches that information...so if you change it and want to add the url back to FB again- you need to run it through the Debugger tool- which tells FB to ignore the old cache and get a new one.

If you make changes you wont see it displayed on FB until you use this tool...you may already know all this but thought I would add it just in case

Editing Facebook Profile Page Metadata


Using Jamroom

I have been using GoDaddy website Builder for 10 years- back when it was called GoDaddy Website Tonight
This is their old drag/drop website builder and this video shows how they handle custom meta tags-Ning has a similar method in that at the bottom of a page on Ning you can choose to use the Ning generated meta data or use the text box to enter yourown
I always used this box to add the data I wanted Facebook to use using the Open Graph (OG) that facebook uses

It was really pretty simple- create the content- right click on the image in the content that I wanted FB to display- then select "Copy Image Url" and add it to the facebook meta data

I think both GoDaddy and Ning settled on this method for custom meta data because they got tired of trying to make their software parse the correct image/content for every page of every users website
Much easier to let the page creator control how the dat is displayed

Here is the godaddy website builder custom Meta Tag video
https://youtu.be/wdVeOO7DLlA

 <meta property="og:title"  content="Title Of The Webpage Content Is On" /> 
  <meta property="og:image"  content="URL of your Image Here" /> 
  <meta property="og:description" content=" short description of what you are seeing here"/>


You can also add meta properties for videos and other media using the OG tags explained here

I notice sharing your page with Google+ and Pintrest they both select the correct image from the page ( to me at least)

When I share your link useing the sharethis FB button I am not getting any image....this has been a reoccurring problem for me- weird that it comes and goes... I would also like to see the FB og:Description get picked up...
