    If I try to share it on Facebook, the image from your post appears normally.

    I can’t help, but I am curious to see if anyone can as I was having the same issue today with my blog post.
    Normally when I share on facebook, I can choose an image from the post. Today however it just comes up saying 0 images and I don’t get a choice…

    Generally, sharing on facebook select all images from your post. The first image it get on your post is shown as thumbnail first. And so on other images. You can browse images [like 2 of 11, 3 of 11] to select a correct thumbnail for your share.

    Have you searched the forums? I find that this is a longs standing problem when I search. Are you using Publicize? http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/
    Publicize isn’t customizable. Manually posting to FB via your Sharing buttons works better and allows you to choose the image.

    This is the first post I came to when searching, I was being lazy, I’ll keep looking, but it sounds like the OP was having the same issue as me in that, normally, I CAN select from thumbnails of all the images in my post, I haven’t had any problems with this before. Now however it isn’t even bringing up an option of any images, I can’t even select the ‘no thumbnail’ box, that doesn;t show up either.
    I’m not using publicise…
    Will keep searching for a solution :)
