All of my social media sharing icons won't function properly, they say the link is dead or they ran into a problem.

Any ideas?

I've tried the sharing on your site and can confirm the behavior, but unfortunately the sharing debugger from Facebook (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/) isn't giving the same results -- it's indicating that the page is fetched successfully. That makes debugging this very difficult.

The only thing I really notice is that your board URL appears to be http but you're forcing https. Normally, this would 301 though so I don't think that's necessarily the case, but worth checking first I think.

I really appreciate the effort, Mike.

So I would have to disable my SSL security?
 
Any other ideas on this guys?
A few of my members used this feature dozens of times daily and they're twiddling their thumbs while I wrack my brain trying to figure out what's not working properly.
 
Oh, I just noticed something -- it looks to me like your "board URL" setting is wrong, beyond just the http thing that I mentioned. It looks like you have "index.php?forums/" in it. It should just be https://theologyforums.com.

Yeah actually I've wondered about that....
I thought it was an F up when I did the initial install so i never touched it out of fear.

That did it though, thank you Mike. You a r e the man.
