My site is having the wrong images shared sometimes. But more annoyingly for the posts without a featured image my default image is not being recognised.

Does anyone know what to do? I have all plugins setup properly i think it might have to do with facebook's cache. Mine is fine i have cleared them all especially the dns cache.

Answer 1

Issue I recall was the order of the images in the specific post. Have not used wordpress for quite a while and I am sure there have been a large number of major releases that have sorted out issues like this. But be careful with image ordering and also find a good plugin that lets you define the social media image explicitly like many do now days. That will address any social media sharing issues.

Answer 2

According to Facebook, it scrapes your page every 24 hours to ensure the description (and other share data) are up to date. However, you can manually refresh it by entering the post URL into the Facebook URL Linter Let me know if i could help you more.
