    Facebook like button -Meta Property tags Vbulletin 3.8

    Hello all,
    Hoping you can help me. Thanks in advance. I have installed the Facebook like button (no mods or hacks) just the Facebook code and added the Meta og property tags. I am currently running Vbulletin 3.8.7. The button works fine and shows of on Facebook but it's when I click the button that on my site it does not show a title or description.


    Please see the attachments and my code. One attachment is whay you see on my site when clicking and another with what I am looking for with the tilte in bold etc. as pictured in the attachment.


    If anyone can shine some light on why or a fix - I would greatly appreciate it!


    -Tom

    <!-- / Facebook Like -->

    My Meta Property og Tags:


    Code:
     <meta property="og:image" content="http://www.mysite.com/images/mysite.png"/>
    <meta property="og:description" content="MYSITE - The Largest  in the world!"/>
    <meta property="og:title" content="$threadinfo[title]"/>

      Thank you for the reply.

      It is viewable to guests. This is happening also when I'm logged in a using the button. Do the meta property og tags look correct? is there code I can add to the Facebook button code perhaps?
