    Hello,

    I read this post today:
    https://louisem.com/3838/facebook-link-thumbnail-image-sizes

    I would like to see is there any way to configure WordPress to see the post and images with 560 x 292 in mobile news feed and 400 x 209 on desktop.

    Facebook is recommending an enormous 1200 x 627 pixel size for images.

    Actually my thumbnail sizes in functions.php are:

    if ( function_exists( ‘add_theme_support’ ) ) {
    add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );
    set_post_thumbnail_size( 800, 600, true );
    add_image_size( ‘slider-thumb’, 620, 340, true );
    add_image_size( ‘post-thumb’, 620, 340, true );
    add_image_size( ‘medium-thumb’, 620, 340, true );
    add_image_size( ‘small-thumb’, 620, 340, true );
    }

    I’m using the Official Facebook WordPress Plugin.

    The Facebook plugin for WordPress requests the full attachment image size from wp_get_attachment_image_src()

    Facebook consumes an image for the page and creates new sizes on its server for its various display cases (HiDPI, desktop, smartphone, news feed, timeline, etc.). By providing Facebook with the largest image your story is available for ranking in news feed with a relevant image.
