After your response to my previous issue (#46), I experimented using the data-pin-description attribute to set a pin's description text explicitly. However I am still encountering instances where that attribute's value is ignored and the page's og:description meta tag is used instead.
When I click the "Pin It" button in the Firefox toolbar and select the black image that reads "One", the pre-filled description displays the value from the image's data-pin-description attribute ("Image One - Alt Text"). All is good here!
When I click the "Pin It" button and select the black image that reads "Two", the pre-filled description displays the page's og:description meta value ("Visit the post for more") instead of the image's data-pin-description attribute ("Image Two - Alt Text").
Do you have any idea why the second image's data-pin-description value is being ignored? Is it supported behavior to have multiple "data-pin-description"s on the same page like this?
Hi Ken,
After your response to my previous issue (#46), I experimented using the data-pin-description attribute to set a pin's description text explicitly. However I am still encountering instances where that attribute's value is ignored and the page's og:description meta tag is used instead.
I've set up a second test page with two images on it: http://thethriftyginger.com/pinterest-debug-page-2/
When I click the "Pin It" button in the Firefox toolbar and select the black image that reads "One", the pre-filled description displays the value from the image's data-pin-description attribute ("Image One - Alt Text"). All is good here!

Thanks, George
