Hi,
I’m having a problem with photos not showing up when i share one of the articles on Waleg.com on Facebook for example.
Is there a way to fix this, i never had such an issue with other template!?
Thank you for your help
Hello,
Facebook seems to have troubles these days and lots of people have problems with photos and facebook sharing. Please make sure you use SEO Yoast and activate the OG tag for facebook. The problem most of the times seems to be on the first share. If you try to share the same post a second time, it works as expected. At the moment i checked your website and was able to share posts without problems.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you for your reply Boddan.
The post that might worked for you while sharing on Facebook might be the ones that have photos specified through Yoast…
Try this one: http://waleg.com/celebrities/morgan-freeman-in-luxor-for-the-story-of-god/
I just did and it didn’t work.
Could the reason be the many lines of codes before the actual featured photo of the post and content?
I’m very grateful and satisfied with your theme and efforts invested in it, I’m just trying to help make it even better by reporting such issues.
Thank you very much again.
Hello,
I checked your post and shared it. Again without problems: http://screencast.com/t/x0pUSda9f.
It seems that you need to hit the share button a couple of times until facebook can grab the image.
Thank you for reporting this issue, but unfortunately there is little we can do about it. When facebook gets overcrowded, issues like this can happen.
A new update for newspaper was just released and it fixes a few important issues. Please update to the newest version and see if this sharing issue still exists.
Thank you.
