  Hi, I updated my blavatar today and the new picture is showing in my tab. But when I tried to post the home page of my site to facebook, it showed my old blavatar. How can I fix this?

  Thank you.

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

  You will need to flush your Facebook cache.

  Thanks–I searched how to do this which led me to the debugger tool. I typed in my domain’s url which showed the “object properties” that facebook reads–including the old image. When I clicked on that image, it brought up the new image! I hit “debug”, but the new image still isn’t what’s showing when I try to post the link to facebook. Any thoughts? Is there a better way to “flush my facebook cache”?

  Many thanks
