  I want to add/capture text next to the image of my posts when they show up on Facebook. I use the publicize feature. If I add the text 1st in the post then the image doesn’t show up. If add text after the image and only the title shows up.

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

  Jello there,
  We cannot control which images Facebook chooses to display. We cannot control how frequently they flush their images caches either. Have you noted this in the support documentation?

  Troubleshooting

  • Only the first five images uploaded to a post (direct inclusion/gallery/slideshow) will be sent to Facebook. The images size has to be at least 200 x 200 pixels.
  • To select which image will be used for things like Facebook Publicize, you can use a theme that supports featured images. If a featured image isn’t set or your theme doesn’t use featured images, then the code tries to pick the first image in the post or page. If no image is found, then the blavatar is used.

  I’m sorry that you cannot accomplish what you want to do and as far as I know there is no workaround.
