Social Media Button Errors on Mobile only

Hi Everyone,

I am using LR and CE4 Gallery and when I export my gallery using social media buttons, I have the following problems occur on iPhone only (haven't tried a Droid yet...):

- the LinkedIn button for OTHERS to share and post the gallery gets a 404 error
- the RSS feed button does nothing - opens a blank page in my browser

Again, everything works fine on a computer. You can see the gallery at http://www.lfpclients.com/Clients/lola

Any help is greatly appreciated smile

Re: Social Media Button Errors on Mobile only

I'm seeing the same thing when looking at your gallery from my iPhone 6.

the Linkdin share button works on my iPad though

The RSS feed link wants to take me to the new "news" feature in iOS though (both iPhone and iPad). I'm given the option of opening in News or closing. Thanks iOS 9!

Both problems are happening in my galleries too.

Something for Matt to look into.

Re: Social Media Button Errors on Mobile only

I'm not seeing the problem using the gallery on my iPhone 6S. The LinkedIn buttons on your galleries are fine.

Re: Social Media Button Errors on Mobile only

weird. Saturday I was getting the 404 error when tapping the LinkedIn share button in my albums. Today it works. (maybe a LinkdIn issue over the weekend?)


But on my iPhone 6 and iPad (iOS9.1) when I tap on the RSS feed button (in Safari) I now get a box asking me: "Open this page in "News"?" with choices to "Cancel" or "Open"

"Open" takes me to the new "News" feature in iOS, "Cancel" takes me to a blank page

In Chrome for iOS, tapping on the RSS button takes me to a blank page.

RSS button works fine on the PC

Seems like an iOS issue but there's nothing in the News settings that controls the behavior. And since it's probably an iOS issue, it doesn't seem like there's much to be done about it.

this is the url I'm using in the Social profiles area

http://rodbarbee.com/blog/feed

is there something else we should be using?

Does this happen on a Mac too?

Ah. I just set up an account with Feedburner. The url they gave me fixes the issue.
http://feedburner.google.com
