CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi, and thanks for any help.

I've installed and in a very basic sense, set up CGBlog on a site.

However the client reposts most articles URL's to their Facebook site, and wants FB to automatically grab an image file for the blog article.

How would I do this?

Even an author avatar would be good.

I tried adding a content block to the blog article page, but soon became very lost.

Thanks again for any help.

In the Dutch part of the forum there are quite some posts to be found regarding this topic. After a long struggle I finally decided to use an rss-feed and send the feed to RSS Graffity (Facebook App). This works

Rolf has written a very good article on how to create an rss feed using cgblog.

If you search the forum you'll sure find a lot of information to help you out.

Try something like

Many thanks for the help.

Rolf, I added the code you supplied to my meta tag fields, but am I supposed to do anything else with it?

I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to make it work

Apologies if this is a very stupid question. I'm full of them...

Cheers,

Paul
