Solution 1: Use Facebook’s debug tool<\/h2>\n
The first thing you should do is use Facebook’s debug Tool<\/a>. This will show you how Facebook sees the content of your page. Simply enter your\u00a0web page address and hit “Debug”.<\/p>\n Look under “og:image” section of the content displayed. Chances are, your image is missing, there’s no image there at all, or it’s displaying an old image. In any of those cases, hit the blue “Fetch new scrape information”, and check again to see if the correct image is now displayed in the “og:image” section.\u00a0If it’s now there, try to share your post of page again on Facebook. It should not work.<\/p>\n The second solution to this problem is to\u00a0check the size of the image your want displayed as a thumbnail. It must meet the below requirements to display on Facebook when a user shares.<\/p>\n <\/a> Source: Facebook image size best practices<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Once you’ve upload the correct image size, use the debug tool in\u00a0solution\u00a0one and tell Facebook to “Fetch new scrape information”. Then try to share your page again on Facebook. Hopefully it’s working. If not, move on to solution three.<\/p>\n If solution one and two are not working then you need to tell Facebook which image to display. You can do this by adding the og:image, Open Graph “object” (meta data) to your head tag. This line of code\u00a0tells Facebook which image to display when someone shares your post or page. The line of code looks like this:<\/p>\n [att_highlight color=”blue”]<meta<\/span> property=<\/span>“og:image”<\/span> content=<\/span>“http:\/\/yourdomain.com\/img\/your-image.jpg”<\/span> \/><\/span>[\/att_highlight]<\/p>\n If you’re trying to share a website or landing page, not a blog post, then I suggest manually adding the above\u00a0line of code in\u00a0your head tag (<head><\/head>), and link to the image you want displayed.<\/p>\n This can be tricky to do manually, so luckily there are great plugins, like Yoast SEO<\/a> that will easily do this for you. Just install the plugin, go to SEO > Social > Facebook and check the box that says “Add Open Graph meta data”. This will solve all of your problems in less than a minute.<\/p>\n One of these three solutions should fix your thumbnail problem, but if you’re still having problems, you should speak with your developer and show him or her this post. You should also note that Facebook’s Open Graph offers similar solutions to all the content your want displayed on Facebook. Yoast SEO, in solution three, takes care of all this. However, if you want to manually add the rest of the objects, you can also find more of Facebook’s Open Graph objects (meta data) by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You’ve just launched\u00a0the perfect post on your blog, so\u00a0you share it on Facebook for the world to see.
