Hi Sir/Madam,
When we share a link from the website to Facebook it doesn’t show the picture. https://www.facebook.com/whistlemag
We tried Facebook debugger and it shows the below message. Please help us to correct it
Warnings That Should Be Fixed
Inferred Property
The ‘og:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Missing Properties
The following required properties are missing: og:url, og:type, og:title, og:image, og:description, fb:app_id
Hello,
If I understood correctly when you want to share a post, the featured image doesn’t appear, right?
Please make sure that you have og image set, usually, for this, we recommended using the SEO Yoast plugin (our theme doesn’t have the option for an image).
Also, you can check the og image using this tool => https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
To share a post with a featured image, please follow this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/ use SEO Yoast (in this guide you will know how to display the og image using Yoast plugin).
Hope this helps you!
Thank you!
Hello, is it possible to fix the problem using anything else than Yoast? I use All in One SEO Pack and even if I manually set the “facebook picture” in the post settings, it does not work.
Hello,
I have the same problem on my site nerdified.de
I have installed yoast with the recommendet settings and follow your guide but this had no effect. When I share a post on facebook (or whatsapp, or twitter), the featured image will not be shown.
Same here. We are using the plugin wpseo on android-user.de and have tried anything: disabled cache, disabled all plugins which are not absolutely necessary to run the site but same issue.
Hello,
@khubas
If you use All in One SEO Pack I found these articles
-> https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-facebook-incorrect-thumbnail-issue-in-wordpress/
-> https://aioseo.com/all-in-one-seo-social-meta-panel-optimizes-your-social-shares/
-> https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/
I hope this will help you to solve the problem.
@nerdified
I just made a test and seems to work https://www.screencast.com/t/t9wpskcpfO -> https://i.imgur.com/33XOG1C.png
@celhil
Also, I made a few tests and seems to work well https://www.screencast.com/t/t2kvQxnV161 -> https://www.screencast.com/t/VxLvyMycuS
Thank you!
Hello Anamaria,
I have made a video for you to show the problem:
What did you do differently?
Hi celhil,
I just checked your website and it looks that you do not have an og:image https://i.imgur.com/n0eA6ez.png to set it we recommend to use Yoast SEO like in our guide https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/
Let us know the results!
I encounter the same problem, but see the same behaviour on all big websites in my country. So mabey facebook encounters a problem at them moment.
Hi ahavahel, indeed there were some changes with the like button, and those are for all themes and plugins, not only for ours, here is an article from https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button/
Thank you!
exectly the same problem here, as celhil showed in the video. the funny thing is, that I’m icurrently in contact with AIOSEO support and if they check my link with facebook debugger, the image is displayed nicely, but not for me…
Hello @galbeatrix,
I think this is your website https://mymirror.hu/ and I made a test to share a post on Facebook => https://www.screencast.com/t/fDCPrxazqCB and the featured image is showing.
If AIOSEO support did a test and it’s okay, there may be a problem in the region you are in, just like in his case @ahavahel
Thank you!
That could be. In what reagions do you live? I‘m in germany.
I too like you …
thank you Anamaria, now I’m sure the problem is geographical 🙂 I’ts unbeliveable though…

Hello,
I have find out something:
If you publish a new post on facebook business suite the featured image will be shown.
I have made a video: https://youtu.be/V2WoWM-81pc
Yes, I can confirm that. Link preview works fine in Facebook Creator Studio too!
Hello,
I understand that the problem is solved if you use Facebook business site, I’m glad.
Thank you!
