Hi.
I make simple galleries with jAlbum using Tiger/Dark and upload them on my ftp. They are just pictures with descriptions - no comment etc.
I put links to galleries on my profile, but Facebook removes those posts because they violeted it's rules - cybersecurity.
I used Arles Image Web Page previuosly, and FB didn't make any problems.
Sample gallery

Your web host does not appear to offer the secure https protocol. Most web hosts support this these days, usually for free. The jalbum.net hosting does.

Using HTTPS not "nice to have", this is a "must". No one is working without HTTPS, for years.

Contact Facebook about this. It has nothing to do with jAlbum. The albums produced by jAlbum are just web sites (HTML, CSS, and Javascript) - there's nothing unusual about them.

I added SSL to my page, so now it's secure, but still post with the link is removed.

https://www.solarfoto.top/finale_ligure_2024/index.html

From FB:
It appears that you have attempted to collect sensitive information or have shared malware.

FB won't let me post a link to your site. But if I make an album with your project settings, I can post it to FB without any problem. The page code is identical - same HTML and CSS structure, same Javascript files. The only difference is the image files.

I think the .top top-level-domain is the problem. From a Wikipedia article:

.top domains are often used for malware and phishing, and the TLD is included in the list of those banned for some antimalware vendors such as Malwarebytes.
 
.top is blocked by default by Snort rules.

I have been using this domain for over a year, the problems started a month ago when I changed the gallery creator program to jAlbum. That's why I'm combining these two issues.
Moreover, I can easily add link with the solarfoto.top home page only.

Very strange. The problem seems to be triggered by a combination of factors - the .top domain, plus something else. As I said, FB doesn't complain if I create a Tiger album and post a link to it, but I have normal domains, like .com and .net.

Please do two tests, that will help narrow it down.

First, use a text editor to edit your index.html page manually, and remove the widget script lines, lines 90-106:
<script>
	_jaWidgetBarColor = 'black';
	$(document).ready(function(){
		REL_PATH='';PAGE_NAME='index.html';
		$.ajaxSetup({cache:true,contentType:false});
		$('body').removeClass('stop-transitions');
		$('#main').skin({"albumName":"Prywaciarze"....
		if (window.innerWidth < 640 || Modernizr.touchevents)....
		$('[data-tooltip]').addTooltip();
		$('[data-modal-open]').on('click', function(e){
			var t=$(e.target).data('modal-open');
			if(t&&(t=$('#'+t)).length){$('body').modal(t);}
		});
		$('[data-ask-permission]').askPermission();
	});
</script>
Now try to link to the album from FB. Does it still give an error?

(Laza, if you're reading this, why does Tiger "helpfully" insert the widget code, even if I tell the jAlbum core not to include widget support?)

Second, make an album with a non-Laza skin, and see if that also creates problems. Try something that doesn't rely on JSON files at all, like Neptune.

Given the fact that so many applications regard the .top domain as a source of malware, you might want to get a regular domain name, instead. You might have problems with solarfoto.top, beyond the immediate issue.

It looks, i find the solution.
I changed finale_ligure_2024 to finale_2024 and suddenly FB is OK with it.
So now FB doesn't reject the post with

That's very weird!

FB produces some of the best software on the planet. Their ability to store and retrieve literally billions of images and videos is just breathtaking.

But FB also produces some of the worst software on the planet. The user interface is a disaster.

After a few hours, FB deleted the post again. :(
And it didn't delete the two previous galleries made in the same way. I have no more ideas.

Damn, I found another thing - maybe it has something to do with it.
The finale_2024 gallery shows only the first 20 photos and the Lightbox, captions and navigation do not work! If I click Preview from jAlbum, there are 136 photos, everything works, but if I run directly from index.html or upload to ftp, it only shows 20.
The remaining 3 galleries (they have fewer photos, but over 20) show all photos, although you can see the moment of loading the next ones after the first 20.
