Summary:
When posting a link to an NRO site to Facebook, the description of the site shows the message "Javascript seems to be disabled in your browser..."
Solution:
Facebook uses the
Default Description
from the
HTML Head
section under
System / Configuration / General section / Design
to display the OG:Description information for posts. If this section is blank then the Javascript message will be displayed.
Once the
Default Description
information has been set, flush the Javascript / CSS Cache under
System / Cache Management
located at the bottom of the page:
Note that it may take a little while for Facebook to scrape the new data from the Default Description field and show that information on posts.
