Hi, I’ve just switched my site from http to https.

I’m using SumoMe for my Social Media sharing counts – and this uses the OG:URL as the tag for counting. Now, it seems that the tag is pulling hte full URL rather than using // so it seems that I have lost most of my share counts.

How can I fix this such that the og:URL shows a url which is independent from the protocol and thus be able to show all my social media sharing counts?

Thanks
David

Hi
David sharing tools use the current url of the browser . In this case it will use https , and shows the sharing count based on it .
To solve it you need to pass it your sharing tool . You can also contact to your sharing tool team and post this query to them .
I found some results that can help you in this

What I need to know is where is the og:url tag is created, so that I can edit it to remove the protocol, so that the counts are protocol independent.

Right now, I have og:url = https://www

I want to change the code such that it creates a og:url = //www

Hi Template does not produce OG Tags ,
You need to contact to your share tools/OG tag support team to customize there code to pick correct OG url .

Are you sure? I don’t have any plugins which are meant to create the Open Graph tags.
