Facebook sharing is not working

[qingwei91]

Hi ~

Facebook share button is not working, did I make any mistake?

<FacebookShareButton url={url} title={title}>
     <FacebookIcon size={32} round />
</FacebookShareButton>

Hi,

Can you elaborate how it is not working? Does anything happen when you click the button?

Double check that you are doing it as in the demo.

Thanks for your prompt reply, yes I was following the demo

Here's the popup

Or do I need to register my host domain in facebook?

Btw, thanks for building this easy to use Component

It seems you are trying to share a webpage from your local environment. Facebook of course cannot access that page, but it is strange that they are returning error 500. Try configuring it with a valid web address (like http://github.com). If that works, you can safely assume that your link sharing will work in production mode when you don't have localhost in the url.
