I am noticing that whenever someone post a link to my site, The thumbnail is empty. Is there something that can be done on my part to make sure that a thumbnail pop up next to the link?

I have placed the correct ftp info.

Hi, Dee.

You probably mean posting on Facebook. I've checked and FB fetched a thumbnail from your site: developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/o...%2Furban-lyfe.com%2F


- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you

What I meant was that whenever someone post a link to my site, the thumbnail is empty. For example, some of my users tried to post their soundcloud/reverbnation music link to their status. The link was fine but next to the link is the thumbnail but the thumbnail is empty and does not give the option having a photo in the thumbnail.

FYI.....Whenever I post a youtube link, everything seems to be fine.

Thanks,

Hi, Dee.

Ok, I confirm that issue. I've tried to post this link:

It's parsed correctly in JomSocial community site but not on your.

I assign developer to this thread.

Hi Dee,

must be server configuration issue.

please make sure PHP settings:
1. open baserdir = none
2. CURL installed and enable
3. allow url fopen = on
4. GD library installed and enable
5. and allowing functions: file_get_contents and imagecreatefromstring

or you can try this solution:

Hello,

Thank you for replying. I am totally lost. Is there a way that I can provide you my username and password so you can possibly look for the items that you mentioned to me?
