Incorrect NEWS Template served from link on Facebook

Post by sugna »

1.11.9 "Bartolome"
News 2.13

I'm having an issue when sharing a page from a site to Facebook.
This only happens when a user clicks on a link from a story that was shared on Facebook.
I believe It has to do with the "d," from a News Module feed when using Pretty URL's

http://rocknrollexperience.com/news/418 ... rview/[b]d,[/b]interviews/

When the user clicks on the link from within Facebook for some reason the "Story" appears on the home page not the Detail Template.

Page Smarty
{news category="Live Reviews" detailtemplate="live-reviews" detailpage="live-reviews"}

Has anyone else had this issue?

This can happen when you set the detailpage in the parameters, try setting the detail page in the News admin...

That works thank you!

However I lose the "Active" state on the Navigation when clicking on the link from Facebook to the site now.

Would you know a solution for this?

I'll start thinking...

Thanks for your help
