Hey guys. Wondering how to fix this problem with Featured image for Categories.

When I post a link for categories (http://brandinginasia.com/category/southeast-asia/) for example on FB or Google+ it’s still bring up the old Logo. Even though I have debugged it on FB and rescraped the link.

Also have changed the logo image in YOAST as well. Nothing working

Where is the featured image for categories changed?

Hello,

Our theme does not provide a featured image for categories. you can only have a featured image for posts or pages, but not categories. We did not test a featured image on a category but you can maybe find a plugin that allows this.

Thank you!

Right. Understood. So why when I post on facebook that link that I sent you it gives me that thumbnail as shown from FB in the link that I set? Where is that stored and how can I change it?

Thanks

Hi,
Facebook will grab any image it can so that is why you need to have the proper OG image selected by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/ Even so, if you try to share something that has no image associated with it, facebook will grab the first image it can. I can’t say for sure how it works as we do not work for facebook 🙂 You will have to do a bit of research on this as we have not tested sharing categories on fb as our theme does not provide this option. The only sharing we provide is post sharing.
Thank you!
