POsting link to my site on Facebook but have Zencart blurb

I want to post the items that I add to my catalog on my Facebook page, and have done a few trial runs, but every item I add has the DOWNRIGHTNATURAL | ZENCART (R)..... added to the post.
Is there a simple way to remove this, or to make it so that it is not added to the post when I enter the URL to FB?

Thanks

Kirby

Re: POsting link to my site on Facebook but have Zencart blurb

Please elaborate. How is the link pushed to FB? If by a plugin, please seek assistance in the forum thread applicable to it. If by pasting the link, then should look to see what FB says about what information it posts in relation to the link. Then from there can seek guidance to address the specific information includiing the impact on other services as a result of the change...

I'm pretty sure that I know what you are talking about and If my notes are correct.....this is what I changed**.

/includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/common/html_header.php

**```
<meta name="author" content="[B]changethis[/B]" />

I exported the information in my store to a csv file (via Easy Populate), and was using the included link to the product page.

FWIW, Zen Cart v1.5.5 has changed this to
<meta name="author" content="<?php echo STORE_NAME ?>"> ```
