Thank you for your reply and i`m not still sure what i`m searching for.
Please excuse me but i`m opencart newbie.
I have tried to use this kind of extension with a hope that it will be my salvation
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... n_id=22963 and after successful installation and reading "read me" file instruction i have done all the necessary in my opinion and nothing has changed.
Please give me some clues.

That extension should solve your problem. Be sure to clear your extension cache and rebuild it. Then view the source of any of your product pages and you should see og: tags added.

When i go to this page
http://fishingbg.eu/proteinovi-topcheta ... arfin-line
and press ctrl + U, i see code below :
Code: Select all
<meta property="og:title" content="ПРОТЕИНОВИ ТОПЧЕТА ЗА СТРЪВ MI 5" >
<meta property="og:description" content="" >
<meta property="og:site_name" content="Barfin line" >
<meta property="og:url" content="http://fishingbg.eu/proteinovi-topcheta-za-strav-mi-5-barfin-line" >
<meta property="og:image" content="http://fishingbg.eu/image/cache/catalog/topcheta/mi5%20500-600x315.jpg" >
<meta property="og:image:width" content="600" >
<meta property="og:image:height" content="315" >
<meta property="product:price:amount" content="14.50" >
<meta property="product:price:currency" content="BGN" >
<meta property="og:type" content="product" >
The code above needed for facebook share. If still doesn't work, please check using link below (you must login to you account facebook first):

Try enter your url product. If you get warning message like "This URL hasn't been shared on Facebook before".
