When I share an article, the image does not shows on facebook. I have searched other topics on this forums and eventually tried some plugins like SEO Youst etc. Still got no luck. Need your kind help in this regard. The featured image size of the article is also ok according to the forum suggestion.
My site url is http://www.storylogy.com/

Hi
I’ve checked some posts from your site and the featured image is dimpled fine: http://screencast.com/t/Ur5Jk03c0I If you still have this issue try to run a fresh scrape with Facebook debugger toll then test the again: http://screencast.com/t/xWtXUtMHwE – https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/
Let us know if you need further assistance on this.
Thanks!
Yep, i get exactly the same issue with this theme.
To get the image to appear when embedding in facebook i have to
1. paste the link url in the facebook post
2. delete the link
3. refresh the facebook page
4. re-paste the link url in the facebook post
That’s the only way the image will display in a facebook post.
Hi Andrei L.
You must have checked the links which I have scraped before with facebook debugger. Every time doing scrapping for each link can be annoying for my client. There are sites where I have seen it works fine even without the help of scraping.
Can you kindly suggest some alternative changes which I can setup or do on my theme so that we don’t need to get the help of scraper every time when I share the links.
Thanks in advance for your wonderful cooperation.
HI
The theme does not control how Facebook display content picked by its sharer. Indeed it usually works without the scrape but this is not theme’s related, if you check our demo this issue is not there. Sometimes facebook won’t index automatically a new post because of huge amount of data which must be fetched. So you can “force” facebook to index your post by running a fresh scrape as I’ve indicated above.
Also there can be a slow response from the server. When facebook read the page which is shared, it won’t wait to much for requested data. If the response is to slow or for some reasons is blocked the content won’t be displayed properly. You can try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear the caches and check if the problem is still there.
Thanks!
