[SOLVED] Add custom name, caption, image, description to new facebook share dialog or custom stories not taking them from og meta

Add custom name, caption, image, description to new facebook share dialog or custom stories not taking them from og meta

I'm just working on a quiz script. Thus I want to share the results of an quiz and not the og meta data.

I know it is possible to use the old FB.ui feed action do add a custom name, caption, description and message than sharing an url. E.g.:

    FB.ui({
    method: 'feed',
    href: url,
    name: name,
    caption: title,
    description: des,
    message: message,
    picture: img,
}, function(response){});

However I think this gonna be deprecated soon?!

Is this possible with the new share api too? Or can I do this with custom stories? How? I'm looking for something like

    FB.ui({
    method: 'share',
    href: url,
    name: name,
    caption: title,
    description: des,
    message: message,
    picture: img,
}, function(response){});

But this isn't working :/ it only takes the href. Everything else is ignored and not prefilled :(

Is there any best practise or a facebook recommended way to do this?

Thx. I really appreciate your help

Solution

I think that your href URL should use metadata so that Facebook could get those informations.

From Facebook developers page:

Include open graph meta tags on the page at this URL to customize the story that is shared back to Facebook.
