    Hi,

    I try to use your plugin, because I need posting to facebook some pages/posts of my web site with image. Unfortunately when I post to facebook, I don’t understand how the programm choose the picture. It takes from my post any picture what he wants, but not the featured image of the post or page.
    What is the problem?
    How to do?

    Thanks in advance for your reply,
    Lila

    Hey domdom777, I’d like to help – could you provide what website domain you’re talking about so I can look at the rendered source?

    Sometimes there are other plugins outputting og: tags that conflict or sometimes the code is correct but FB cache is bad (use the FB debugger mentioned in the plugin help) developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

    Anyways.. .let me know and I’ll do what I can to help

    Hey domdom777

    FIrst off your fb:admins is wrong. If you use Facebook’s debugger it’ll show that you’re using a page in that settings field instead of all people id’s.
    – 100005191531043 – is ok. leave only this one in there. remove the others.
    – 871140822927342 – is a page. remove.
    – 247863211896816 – is a page. remove.

    Secondly most of your images in the pages I’ve seen are too small for Facebook’s minimum requirements. Any post image source should be at least 600×315 pixels.

    otherwise it looks like it’s working okay. new version of the plugin should further help with featured images too.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. I deleted the wrong ID and preserve only one.

    One thinh I don’t understand. When I put my link to debug It gives me that: https://artdom-romanovo.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/fb-debug-picture.jpg
    and the picture fit me perfectly.

    But when I post to Facebook, it gives me that: https://artdom-romanovo.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/fb-image.jpg
    it doesn’t fit me because the picture became incorrect.

    Where the problem is?

    Those look like two different posts? (I can’t read Russian sorry).

    Your home page https://artdom-romanovo.ru doesn’t have any content images that are large enough to use so I think Facebook is using one of the images from the carousel up top.

    Just remember: “Any post image source should be at least 600×315 pixels.”

    And you can set a default fallback image in the plugin settings too which will show up if no images are found for your pages/posts – and make sure it’s at least 600×315.
