You will probably have to post your News template.

It's not a good assumption that the $entry variable/object is persistant.

You better assign those values to your own custom smarty variables and use those in the meta tag:

Code: Select all

Somewhere in News template:

{$meta_filelocation=$entry->file_location}
{$meta_filename=$entry->fieldsbyname.immagine->value}

In head section:

<meta property="og:image" content="{$meta_filelocation}/{$meta_filename}" />

Not tested. BTW the 'content="<img src="' should not be in the content attribute of the meta tag.

I do a couple of tests
but it seems to work perfectly
