Posting to open graph does not show object title in the post

Question

I have created a restaurant app on Facebook and have created a custom story with the action type: "eat", and object type: "dish". When the user posts to Facebook I would like the title sentence of the post to contain the title of the dish that the user has selected, for example:

"Bob ate Pie on Restaurant App"

At the moment when I post to Facebook the result that I am getting is:

"Bob ate a dish on Restaurant App".

Everything else about the post is working as intended.

Here is the code that I am using:

NSMutableDictionary <FBOpenGraphObject> *dish = [FBGraphObject openGraphObjectForPostWithType:@"restaurant-app:dish"
                                                                                        title:@"pie"
                                                                                        image:nil
                                                                                          url:nil
                                                                                  description:@"delicious pie"];

id<FBOpenGraphAction> action = (id<FBOpenGraphAction>)[FBGraphObject graphObject];

[action setObject:dish forKey:@"dish"];

[FBSettings enableBetaFeature:FBBetaFeaturesOpenGraphShareDialog];


[FBDialogs presentShareDialogWithOpenGraphAction:action
                                      actionType:@"restaurant-app:eat"
                             previewPropertyName:@"dish"
                                         handler:^(FBAppCall *call, NSDictionary *results, NSError *error) {
                                             if(error) {
                                                 NSLog(@"Error: %@", error.description);
                                             } else {
                                                 NSLog(@"Success!");
                                             }
                                         }];

I feel like there is just a simple mistake in the code somewhere but can't figure out what it is.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

thanks

Same issue here. It's as if FB is ignoring the og:title tag. — Ryan Her, Nov 19 '13 at 20:42

I had the same problem. i got perfect solution try this:

Change the story of the type "One to One - Without Object Title" as "Object" from "Object.noun".

For e.g: Story sentense would be as follow:

"Tejas ran race with sample." Here race is my object.

Keep the sentence of story of the type "One to One" as Object.title as it is.

For e.g: "Tejas ran race.title with sample." Here race is my object.

Thanks, Tejas

I don't understand. What should we be replacing `Object.noun` with? – StuStirling Sep 25 '14 at 16:23

Hi Disco S2, You have to just replace the “Object.noun” to “Object” For that edit your “One to One - Without Objet Tile” sentence of your story, after that by pressing “{” key you will get options to replace “Object.noun” to “Object”. (In my case i have selected “race” object instead of “race.noun”). – Tejas Bharambe Sep 26 '14 at 05:15

While this really works for this case, I do not like the solution, because it seems to me that it is outputting "Object without a title". But object actually HAS a title, so it is semantically wrong. – Legoless Nov 13 '14 at 10:12
@TejasBharambe: Can you please tell how to replace "object.noun" to "object " as you are suggesting . When I remove it and write "object" it treaded as normal text . Please tell how to do it as I am facing the same problem. – ManiaChamp Jul 04 '15 at 07:24

@TejasBharambe: Not showing like "Maniachamp book a Sample class at Tution Point" its shows like "Maniachamp book a class at Tution Point" . Even after changing Object.tilte to Object. – ManiaChamp Jul 06 '15 at 07:17
