This took some time to debug: apparently Facebook doesn't like percent-encoded URLs, so if you sent it some feed template code that looks like
it will complain about the percent-encoded "+" in the img src. You can easily unescape in ruby:
{
"body":"blah blah",
"images":[{
"src":"http://img.awsomeness.com/8484%2B9087453jpg",
"href":"http://awsomeness.com"
}],
}
it will complain about the percent-encoded "+" in the img src. You can easily unescape in ruby:
>> URI.unescape("http://img.awsomeness.com/8484%2B9087453jpg")
=> "http://img.awsomeness.com/8484+9087453jpg"
