  In the automatically included text there is a swear word and due to this Facebook wont approve an ad using this link. I edited the blog post to move the swear out of the range of the automatically included blurb but WP wont update the blurb to reflect the changes. It doesn’t matter whether I use the share button on my blog, of if I direct share it as a link into my Facebook page, the preview will only show the old text. How can I edit this?

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

  Try the Facebook debugger for this! See: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

  Just enter the URL and click Debug. The next page will give a button to Scrape Again. This will refresh what Facebook sees for your URL.

  Hope that helps!
