Our server is in Germany, but our forum is Greek. When a user posts a link from facebook on the forum, the onebox title and description are rendered in German. [Screenshot 2021-03-10 at 12.37.04] Is there a way to circumvent this behaviour?

It sounds like you’ve described a Facebook feature. I’d guess that you need to move your server to somewhere that Facebook thinks is in Greece. There are some topics about using a proxy for such requests (I think for Twitter?). They might offer a solution.

“Onebox Assistant”, crawl for those previews reliably! might be part of a solution, or a hint at one.

« Onebox Assistant », crawl pour ces aperçus de manière fiable ! pourrait faire partie d’une solution, ou du moins en donner un indice.
