For this you will have to use seo by yoast: https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response, i have already enabled the sharing settings in Yoast plugin. My issue is this, the image mentioned in og:image tag is not posted to facebook on share.

i am not specifically mentioning the image URL in post yoast seo facebook setting as i am assuming the plugin will use the default featured image.

Regards

Hello

I have checked your website and if you will use the Facebook Debugger and press the Scrape Again when you share the post on Facebook will work as expected, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/CB1RJuV3R

Thanks for the message!

@Catalln: I have the problem that by every new posts no image is showing while posting on Facebook. I need the Debugger everytime?

Hello christixnnl,

You will not need permanent the Facebook Debugger. This tool is used to force this action when the Facebook has not updated all data. Sometimes it will take a while until the FB will update all of these information and that’s why this tool is used.

Thanks for your understanding!
