    Hi, everything is fine except facebook sharing … If I click on it a brigde logo (which is not existing in my media files) is showing. All other sharing buttons us the right SAUERSTOFF logo or CD Cover image. Is there any preset where I can change this?
    Thanx for helping.

    Hi there,

    It’s related to Open Graph Meta Tags. You can install our another plugin https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/heateor-open-graph-meta-tags to take care of this.

    When I share on Facebook, a huge image of my logo is shared and not the image of the post or page. I thought this was due to my having the site on “coming soon” mode but the site is live now, as I’m officially going live tomorrow. I would love for the images related to the content to be shared. Also, when I post the page URL in Facebook, it either fetches no image or the huge logo image. The image is part of the lure and marketing to attract site visitors. Any suggestions?

    I’d appreciate any help on this. Thanks!

    Thanks!
    Here is the link for my site. Try sharing on FB and you’ll see, images aren’t shared on any of the blog posts or page posts.

    I appreciate the support very much! ??
    EDIT:
    This blog post is the only one where the image is shared on FB. (Create an Inspiring Vision)

    Thanks again!

    Did you try the thing posted in the first reply?

    I just did and it worked on fetching the proper images. Wow, am I learning a lot! Thank you.

    I get this message:

    The ‘fb:app_id’ property should be explicitly provided, Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog.

    What file(s) is this change added?

    It’s not a deal-breaker. We will provide an option for this in the upcoming releases.

    That’s all I needed to know. I agree, it’s not a deal breaker. I had deleted in the previous post, “Should I be concerned with this message at all since all seems to be working well?”

    Thanks again!
