FaceBook grabs incorrect thumbnail image! Why?

  • When I add a link or share a link on FaceBook, it shows the completely wrong image. Is there a code or a plugin I can use so it grabs the Featured image from my post? Or something like that?

  • oh I am soo sorry for the misspell. It happens to me all the time (people mispelling my name – so I should pay more attention – please forgive me.)

    I use nex-gen gallery and smooth as the slideshow that grabs the pictures that I load. Did you not see the slideshow at the url? I see it when I go to it, and it seems to be working fine. I used to get the wrong thumbnail showing and all the way up to a couple of weeks ago that was the condition, then all of a sudden no image (thumbnail ) showed, not even the wrong ones. I have not changed how I load, or post, so I assume there is a change that may have affected this.
    I don’t want my logo to show, but I would like one of the pictures in the slideshow gallery to show.
    Any suggestions please? Thank you Ashfame….

    Although technically that is possible, it would require some code but the plugin works differently.

    Hi Ashfame,

    Thanks for all your input. Your help is really appreciated. I’m also having a similar problem with my blog. I just installed your plugin, and I hope the problem is alleviated in the next 24 hours.

    Out of curiosity, how can I fix the problem on my own? When I use Facebook’s lint tool, I get a message about a Bad Image URL and other missing properties (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/lint/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.melschwartz.com%2F).

    Your feedback is most welcome. Thanks!

    Thank you Ashfame…
