Facebook only shows fallback image

    Hi Sybre et al,

    When I use my site’s social share buttons, the Facebook button only shows the fallback image. Even after sending the link through the debugger and scraping again, it still shows the fallback.

    Now, if I manually enter a link in Facebook, then it usually gives me the option to choose which image I want, which is fine. But I’d also like for the social sharing button (I use Jetpack) to share the correct image, too. Do you have any tips for this?

    Thank you for you assistance!

    Hi @bluebonnet,

    I’m not sure what’s going wrong. I am however certain it’s not a Jetpack issue.

    Could you show me the URL of the article you wish to share, so I can investigate the cause? If you’d rather do this confidentially, then feel free to send it here.

    Thanks!

    Via mail, the issue was found and resolved.

    The issue:
    Plugin Head, Footer and Post Injections is detected as a conflicting plugin. While it’s only one when the Open Graph output is enabled.

    We’re considering removing the detection while adding more detection modules to Monitor later.

    Add this filter to your theme’s functions.php file if you’re experiencing issues with missing Open Graph data from TSF:

    add_filter( 'the_seo_framework_og_plugin_detected', '__return_false' );
