  Hi,

  I created my own blog about one week ago and have some problems with posting articles to my facebook account. Actually the posting works fine, and if i create a new blog entry it appears on facebook, BUT without the article picture, even if I set one. It doesn’t work when I let wordpress automatically post my article to facebook and also doesn’t work if I post it manually via link.
  How can I get it to show the article picture in my facebook posts?

  Regards,
  Jessica

  Hi Jessica,

  It’s up to Facebook to decide which images to use with your post when you share it. However, photos must be at least 200 x 200 pixels in order to be pulled and Facebook generally pulls the first five images in a post. Can you make sure that the images you’re using are large enough?
