Facebook ‘Like’ counters not working as expected

1 Views

I understand this is the main facebook developer community; I wanted to as a question and see if anyone can help?
I built a wordpress photo portfolio blog – http://shutterliving.com/movember-moustache/
I have the official facebook plugin installed and I have its own LIKE button running at the top and bottom of the page.

I also have the ‘TFG social share’ plugin installed:

I am now wondering if I have managed to set it up correctly as I am encountering some unexpected behavior.

When I preview an unpublished post, the LIKE counter (for the official plugin) is at 0, however the ‘TFG social share’ plugin shows a 12 count? Why is there a discrepancy? How can the post get a like count if it has yet to be published? When I create a new post and save it as a draft, then preview it, both LIKE counts are at 0.

When I go to the debugger tool and input my URL I get errors that I don’t really understand, but a bit of googling told me they were not serious errors. Not sure though on how to fix them? Any idea?

Also when I click on my URL link in the Fetched URL and the Canonical URL, it takes me to a ‘Page not found’ page? Is this normal? Should it not take me through to my homepage?
Response Code 200
Fetched URL shutterliving.com

Canonical URL shutterliving.com

I also associated the INSIGHTS analytics to my web page, however the information it shows is not accurate, ie it says I have only 55 LIKES on my page, however I have much more Likes that that

This leads me to believe I have set something up incorrectly.

Can anyone help with any issue

Jamie.
