  I’ve updated my blavatar/blog image in Sertings > General > Blog Picture/Icon and it updates on the blog itself, but not when I create links on Facebook. Have tried re-uploading the image and it makes no difference.

  It’s been nearly a week and this is still happening. Anyone know how I can fix this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Thanks!

  Interesting; I used URL Linter, the third option, and now Facebook shows the generic WordPress icon for the page. (Better than seeing the old icon!) I’ll give it a few horus and see if this clears up on its own.

  After about 24 hours, this seems to have cleared up. Thanks again!

  You’re welcome. Sometimes FB is goofy.
