I've not come across this prior to upgrading to 2.3.4, but then again I'm not sure if it's connected knowing that Meta makes changes often.

Basically when sharing a thread from our forum to our FaceBook page, the link is added minus any supporting images but the formatting is wrong and it tends to leave a large whitespace prior to the link. The information from FB is "Link unavailable Could not find a Facebook Page for....website"
There are quite a few Google links to others having the same issue, it's not just a recent one, and only thing I can find relating to this is:


Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve it within XF?
 
I'm not seeing the following on my site:


<meta property="fb:app_id" content="XXXXXXXXXX" />
<meta name="facebook-domain-verification" content="XXXXXXXXXXX" />

So, I'll have to add them manually, somehow.

Edit:
I had forgotten that I had encountered this issue five years ago. This is how I "fixed" it.
