Featured Image Does Not Show When Posting Blog to Facebook
-
Hello,
I just created a new blog post and tried sharing it to Facebook and the featured image is not showing. The image size is large so it should accommodate with FB open graph restrictions. When I try to post it all I see is a white box.
Blog post: http://jdiggsmedia.com/2015/02/13/why-businesses-need-social-media/
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi Jamar,
You’re right, everything seems totally fine with this post. I just ran it through Facebook’s debugger (which you can find right here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug) and it is showing a correct preview as well.
When you share it now is it still showing the white box or is it displaying correctly?
-
Hey there! I found out about the debugger tool a couple hours after I made this post. I ended up running the tool a couple times and they finally found my feature image. So it all worked out!
-
Excellent! Out of curiosity, did the tool provide any information about what was wrong in the first place, or was it just not finding the image when it scraped your post?
-
Nope, it didn’t give me any information. It didn’t even recognize I had a photo on that article until I made it scrape again. Hope that helps!
