Can someone check into why the feature photos of these posts won’t appear when I want to share them on facebook?

Hi annmariehak,
By default, your site’s logo will be used by Facebook as the share image but you can override it by following these instructions:

Please let me know how it goes, ok?

Thanks, but it didn’t fix my problem.
In the first link you sent me the at the bottom it says,
“by following the guidelines about image size and aspect ratio outlined in this document…” but there isn’t any more information on image size or aspect ratio. -

Hi there,
As the Facebook Image Thumbnail doc says, we don’t control what image Facebook uses or how they show it. When you share a link on Facebook, their system visits your site to fetch a preview. While we try to suggest to them what content to use, their software is what generates the preview.
The image size and aspect ration guidelines are under the very first heading in the FAQ section:
If your images meet those requirements, try running the links through Facebook’s debugging tool, also linked in the FAQ section of that document. You might need to process the link a few times before Facebook will update the image.
