The Share button lets people add a personalized message to links before sharing on their timeline, in groups, or to their friends via a Facebook Message.
If your website doesn't need a button to open share dialog or Facebook provided button doesn't fit into your website design, Web Share Dialog is also provided for sharing links. Note that you do not need to implement Facebook login or request any additional permissions through app review in order to use this plugin.
Copy & paste the code example to your website. Adjust the value data-href to your website URL. Next use the og:*** meta tags to adjust your link preview. og:url and data-href should use the same URL.
<html>
<head>
<title>Your Website Title</title>
<!-- You can use Open Graph tags to customize link previews.
