Hi,
From what I know from searching online something must have changed on Facebook’s side, pasting the link to a Facebook video in the post content will not work anymore

So when using featured videos from Facebook the post will not have an image thumbnail, unless you set one manually. The video will appear in the post page, but in blocks, grids etc it won’t have a thumbnail.
For the rest of the socials which are supported to be used in the featured videos field, there is no problem as far as I know. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you for your understanding!
