  Hey,

  I just switched my Facebook publicizing to a dedicated fan page. I’m not sure that’s related to this issue, but for my last few posts it has used the default image (my gravatar image) instead of the featured image I’ve set for each post. Is there a way to fix this?

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

  Hello there,

  I’m sorry but we cannot help with this. We have no control over the images that Facebook 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.
