  There might be some kind of technical error right now because my wordpress website and Facebook have not been working properly together for almost a week.

  I’m having a similar issue. It shows up as a white box on Facebook. I tried to add a photo, thinking Facebook didn’t pick up the photo from the blog post, but the link disappeared.

  Every theme has a detailed theme description page. This one is at https://wordpress.com/theme/illustratr and that’s where set up instructions for it and the live demo site link is found.

  If your theme supports a Header menu for your site’s main navigation, and a Social Links menu in the sidebar see https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/social-links-menu/

  Please see these support docs:

  I apologize @timethief. I read the first post too quickly and thought it was the same issue.

  The person who posted above has yet to set up for Facebook at all.

  However, not to worry, start a new thread and we will help you.
