How to select specific picture to be displayed when sharing link on Facebook?
-
When sharing the link to my blog on Facebook, I only have an option of three thumbnail images to choose from. These frequently do not contain the image I want. How can I ensure that the image I want is the image that is displayed next to the link to my blog on Facebook?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That, unfortunately, is determined by Facebook themselves. The website searches your blog for images it can use and then makes a selection. There is no way for us to control it from this side.
Your only option, as far as I know, would be to post the image you want directly on Facebook along with a link to the post.

In fact, I see there’s a support doc on this: http://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-image-thumbnail/

Thank you so much – I don’t know why I didn’t think of that myself. Brilliant idea and thanks again!
