  I had a featured picture that wasn’t displaying on Facebook, so I changed it to one that would, but it still isn’t appearing. It’s for my article ‘CA voters, you went full tyranny’. Thanks.

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

  Here’s some information about how to set images for Facebook:

  If you’ve set the image correctly and it’s still not showing up, take note of the section called “Changed an image, but Facebook doesn’t see it?” and that should help you out.

  Let us know if you get stuck.

  Ok, that worked for new posts, thank you. Is there a way to make it change for people who already shared it?

  No, I don’t believe there is. I’m not sure if post that are shared will auto update or if they will need to be shared again to show the new photo. But, there’s nothing specifically you can do on the WordPress site to edit that.
