OG preview tags work, well without the tags

OG tags now working, but you don't need to use the tags, just post the web address/link and if it automatically recognises that the site has a preview, then it will use that instead of just showing the address..

e.g. I just pasted the link straight from ABC below.

Seems OG plugin is very temperamental, there were others complaining about that but it seems support on most of these plugins is waning..

They said the reason was due to incorrect OG tags (or incomplete), maybe just excuses.. The source code is available so I may get a chance to look at it down the road, I hope...

Is it the Magic OGP links extension by Ger? If so, I'll download it and have a look, comparing it with the code I wrote for my vBulletin OG BBCode.
