  I have used WordPress for a very long time, but just today I started having problems uploading my posts to Facebook. My latest post automatically uploads to Facebook as usual, but the look of it is all wrong. The picture is too large and the opening paragraph of the text (which has always been there) has now gone. Instead it simply displays the title of the post and a link to it and, in general, it looks a mess. Is anyone else having this problem, and is there a way to solve it?

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

  Facebook y have changed the way they choose to display what yo have posted. Have you asked about this at Facebook support?

  I’m waiting for a reply from Facebook support to see if there’s a solution. So this is a problem with Facebook rather than WordPress?

  I’m not sure at this point. Staff say there has been an update that impacted featured images in Facebook https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/images-for-publicize-and-follow?replies=6#post-2431943

  If your reply from Facebook support staff indicates this is not an issue at their end of things you can type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for Staff help. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then please subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond.

  Great, thank you for the advice! I’ll wait and see what Facebook say and then I’ll go from there.
