Yeah, it’s a weird issue. I tried searching online but have no answers anywhere.

I’m using the block editor.

I don’t exactly relate to that link you shared because I have tried to reproduce the same blog post multiple times but the issue just repeats itself. So I’m not sure what is the issue here.

I was able to solve it. I created my own template instead of using a readymade template. I have another question now. How can I reduce the space between my text and the input box (which includes First Name, Email, etc.)? I have attached a screenshot of my embedded form below:

I used the same stacked option only to build this embedded form. I’m not sure what is the issue then. Doesn’t the form auto-adjust according to the theme? Also, how can I solve this alignment issue now?

You mean add random characters at the end of the permalink?

Ok. Do you suggest that I get rid of Cloudflare as my CDN and just use my host instead?

It is working now. Google took time to index the changes. Thanks!

Thank you!

So according to you, the W3 Total Cache settings are optimal for my website, right?

And how do I debug the external issues?

I have already asked my host to check for the settings as mentioned in the article shared by you. Do you suggest that I get rid of Cloudflare as my CDN and just use my host instead?

My concern is with the meta description, not the title/tagline. I am ok with them.

As you can see in the screenshot that I attached previously, the meta description displays the tagline instead of the custom message that I had entered under the Search Appearance settings in Yoast SEO. How can I resolve this?

Yes, I agree. My website has slowed down after I installed W3 Total Cache and I too am getting the 522 Error page frequently since then. I have contacted them for support with regards to the optimal settings. I will update you regarding the progress. Thanks!

Hello. Can anyone help, please? Been waiting for sometime.

I am using Akismet.

I cleared the server cache as suggested by @devnihil.

I also requested my host to review the server’s access logs to see whether something on the server is blocking or restricting Facebook’s ability to scrape the page’s metadata. They simply told me to remove the .htaccess file temporarily to see if it works. According to them, it causes issues most of the time. But after disabling, nothing changed. In fact, I received a 404 error while loading my blog post.

I have also asked for help from the WordPress support forum but they have been slow to reply so far.

What do you suggest I do now? I just want both Facebook and Whatsapp previews to work properly before I publish my website.

Won’t Whatsapp automatically adjust the image size to create the thumbnail? And what about the fact that it is not picking the meta description as well?

From where can I check the Open Graph codes that are already in place for my website? And do you have any article which mentions what all codes have to be in place and in which location for Whatsapp previews to work properly?

Thank you so much for your support! This small issue has really bugged me as it has stopped me from publishing my website. So I appreciate any help I can get during this time!

I had cleared my browser and my website’s cached data multiple times (including CDN). I had also cleared the cookies of my browser just to be sure. But when I checked after that, I got mixed results.

Initially, I got a proper preview for Facebook when I shared my blog post. But when I tried subsequently, it didn’t show properly.

I haven’t cleared my server’s cached data though so I will check with my host for the same. I will ask them to review the site/server’s access logs to see whether something on the site or server is blocking or restricting Facebook’s ability to scrape the page’s metadata.

Were you able to check why Whatsapp is also not scrapping the data? Whatsapp hasn’t shown any preview till now with the meta description and the thumbnail.

Additionally, I also asked Yoast SEO for help. They told me to refer to this article to check for plugin conflicts.

I was not able to get the title, meta description or the thumbnail for either Whatsapp or Facebook while sharing my article. This happened despite disabling all my plugins and the activated theme. In this case, they said that I would need to contact WordPress as this a WordPress-specific issue apparently.
