  I am working with this post
  https://johndaoproductions.wordpress.com/2017/08/10/qi-sphere-beginning/

  … and currently when attempting to post to facebook I get this associated image
  https://johndaoproductions.files.wordpress.com/2017/08/ventilation.jpg
  … and I’d like this one instead

  I looked at the fb debugger for my page
  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/
  and found that my
  <meta property=”og:image” …
  … is set to the wrong image.

  How do I change the <meta property=”og:image” for my wordpress page?

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

  Are you using Publicize? https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/
  Have you tried using the Facebook debugger?

  We have no control over the images that Twitter, Facebook or any other social networks chooses to display or when they choose to flush their image caches. We really only send them the URL of the post, and they hunt through that for the excerpt and images to include.

  Please read Images in Publicize http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#images-in-publicize
