Favicon sharing problem

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hey!

    I created a logo / a favicon for my blog which I want to share on my FB account. When I shared my very first blog post, the favicon was shown next to my blog link. Now I created my second post and when I post the link and get to choose the thumbnail next to it, the favicon image is not available. Is there a way for me to fix this? I want to share the logo image instead of the images I’ve used in my posts.

    I’d appreciate if you could help, thank you!

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

    Unfortunately we have no control over how long it takes for the image caches at Gravatar and at Facebook to be flushed. We also have not control over which images Facebook chooses to display and they make changes frequently. What follows may ot may not be where they are at today:
    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.
