Facebook picture size after like

Hi,

We put the facebook like button on our shop but when people like a item the picture on facebook is to large so facebook will not show the picture total. Is't possible to let facebook use a smaller picture?

Hi,

What can be done is to edit the plugin "plugins\content\hikashopsocial" file "hikashopsocial.php" function "_getImageURL()" and in this function change the path of the "$uploadFolder".

For example, change:

$uploadFolder = ltrim(JPath::clean(html_entity_decode($config->get('uploadfolder','media/com_hikashop/upload/'))),DS);

$uploadFolder = ltrim(JPath::clean(html_entity_decode($config->get('uploadfolder','media/com_hikashop/upload/fb/'))),DS);

Thanks for your reaction, but I changed it how you writed but the picture on facebook stays not in shape.
The picture size that's in the fd direction is 200px high?

Hi,

Have you put a smaller image in the created folder ?
I don't really know how Facebook manage the images, it's maybe a ratio problem.
You need to crop the pictures to have a 4:3 instead of a 16:9 for example.

Hi,

I think the problem comes true the size of the recomand on facebook. The size is square or 4:3 and not 16:9
The picture size I uploaded is 90x90 pix so that can't be the problem anymore.
Do you know how I can change the size or way that Hika snet the recomand to facebook?

Hi,

All the interactions with facebook are in the plugin "plugins\content\hikashopsocial\hikashopsocial.php"
The needed functions are "_addFacebookButton()" and "_getImageURL()"

The image link is stored in the variable "$imageUrl".
