thumbnail image not showing

Hi Feitalks,

Everything looks ok in the feed, the only thing that I see is that the images don’t meet the size requirements – Google asks that images be at least 800px on the shortest side. Many of yours are in the 600-700px on the shortest side. Some are smaller.

Can you try some images that are at least 800px on the shortest side? Let’s see if that works,

Thank u for ur prompt reply.

I’ve just change all images into 800×500 in my articles, and I’ve also deleted and added again my feed. However, it’s still not working.

Please help to check if there is anything I need to do.

Thank you.

Google asks that the images be a minimum of 800 on the shortest side, so you would need them to be 800×800 or larger.

I would not bother changing all of them. Just as a test make your next post have a larger image and let’s see if Google displays it,

Hi Chris,

I’ve tried my next post image as 1200×800. However, it’s still not working.

Please help if there’s anything I wasn’t doing right.

thank u.

I don’t see any other reason that the images aren’t loading…

I am getting a validation error on the RSS validator:

https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffeitalks.com%2Ffeed%2Fgn%2F

I’m not sure if that’s related to the images not appearing though. The validator seems to be indicating that there is a problem with the encoding, so maybe that’s language related, but I don’t know enough about encoding different languages to know for sure.

You might contact Google News Publisher support and ask them about the images. The form to contact them is at:

Do please let me know what they have to say and if they are able to help,

Chris

Hi Chris,
