Hi there,
My website http://www.smagaarhus.dk is build on the Newspaper theme and is functioning well.
But from yesterday to today, the previews of links to articles doesn’t work on Facebook anymore. Try to compare yourself by posting these 2 links in Your Facebook:
This article from today DOESN’T work: http://smagaarhus.dk/smaglos-og-ministeriet-aabner-igen/
This articler from yesterday WORKS: http://smagaarhus.dk/ny-restaurant-paa-toppen-af-aros/
Do you know what I can do and why it has happened? I haven’t made any kind of updates or otherwise in the meantime…
Best regards
Mikkel
I use the Yoast SEO plugin – don’t know if that ca mean anything?
Nothing to do with theme; FB periodically has trouble capturing both images and the excerpt.
They added several months ago a new item to fix this where once you share something, click the “time ago” at top of the post box, then click right arrow at right of box and in the drop down to “refresh attachment” — this will recapture the text *and* image.
This issue is most common in the morning when their system is overloaded from so much sharing and their system capturing images and crunching them to their local data format.
Not much else you can do about it — FB doesn’t charge you to share stuff, for your FB page, etc., so about the only thing you are able to do is use their debug tool to ensure your OG and other tags are properly set.
Welcome to the Internet!!
(and hope you never have a self-driving car powered by FB!) đ
