All the og: elements and properties seem to be in place for the k2 articles on the Gavick News2 template, but none of the information is displaying on Facebook when doing a Facebook Share:

Sample Article:
supconnect.com/tips/how-to-stand-up-on-your-paddle-board

I've tinkered with the news2 backend settings, disabled sh404sef social settings, ... and I'm still at a loss. The og tags are there and with their respective values but for some reason Facebook is not showing any of it there.

thanks in advance for the help!

Hi Andre,

I would recommend removing the OG tags produced by K2 and use sh404SEF social tags (as it made for to render all of your social tags)

Here are two examples of OG tag conflict/issues with using both K2 & sh404SEF currently on your website:
supconnect.com/tag/fishing - Duplicate URL, title & type OG tags
supconnect.com/ - No OG tags

Here is a post that I put up a little while ago that provides instructions on how to remove K2 OG tags (note: it's a Hack):
www.joomlaworks.net/forum/k2-en/41210-k2-power-tip-remove-open-graph-meta-k2-hack

Lastly, by using sh404SEF for all of your social tag needs, you have the ability to better manage your K2 tag pages (which I see you use heavily)
K2 tags currently do not have images which means it can not render a social tag image.

I hope this helps,

Joe Campbell

Turn off the Author tag in System -> Configuration.

It duplicates that of the K2 author tag and that of any other social plugin including sh404SEF, I've found the only reliable way to get opengraph content to work is to turn this off.

@Joseph + @JoomlaWorks - it's unfortunate that the open graph meta are hardcoded and require a hack - I also find sh404sef much more appropriate for managing it; besides, it extends to all other components not just k2.
@JoomlaWorks: any chance to include the fix sometime in the next releases?
Best,
AZ
