I have the same issue with a post I published today. (but not with any previous blogposts).
http://brugesvegan.com
facebook doesn’t show the image in the link. -
We have no control over the images that Facebook or any other social networks 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.

The problem is not that a problem of control of what image Facebook displays.
The problem is that from today, it seems the new blog entries from wordpress blog entry doesn’t word anymore on facebook but old ones works as previous.
So it seems that something perhaps changes in wordpress, and we’ll need a more information from you about that.

I’ve got the same problem with my site – awriteheart.com. I tested with older posts and they work fine, but today’s had no image.

This site http://www.awriteheart.com/ is NOT hosted by WordPress.COM and we cannot help with it. It’s WordPress.ORG install and you are posting to the wrong support forum. The WordPress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support.It sounds like you need JetPack support for your WordPress.ORG install and I can help with that by directing you to the correct places to get support.
Some JetPack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/

I’m having the exact same issues today and it’s frustrating. Any post as of yesterday could generate a preview on Facebook. But today, nothing is working. I have tried debugging using Facebook’s Object Debugger and while it shows the “og:image info,” it doesn’t generate a preview in Facebook. From articles on the web, one in particular I read mentioned that articles with images get 94% more total views, with an engagement rate on Facebook for photos averaging “0.37% where text only is 0.27%.”
Considering Facebook is one of our biggest sharing networks, this is extremely worrisome. Perhaps this is a bug that WordPress has to address in their own scrape information…? Any assistance from the mods would be greatly appreciated.

@timethief: Thanks for providing further information regarding images not generating in Facebook. As per one of the links you shared, WordPress themselves say, “We recommend to Facebook which images we think should be displayed.” That would mean, WordPress has to fix some sort of coding that relays to Facebook that suggests/generates images for the social network. Hopefully they can resolve this issue promptly!

To the wordpress assistance team :
It seems the problem occurs when the og:image:secure_url structured property lacks in the page.
I made a modification/publication of this blog entry :
https://lesanalysesducoachingdelom.wordpress.com/2015/04/30/facebook-sharing-with-image-test/
and now og:image:secure_url appears in the html source code.
and the image appears when sharing the blog entry in facebook.Contrariwise, with a modification/publication of the blog entry :
the og:image:secure_url isn’t still in the html source code and the image doesn’t appear when sharing the blog entry in facebook.
Please provide us a quick analysis.
Kindly

There have been some issues with changes at Facebook lately that could be causing this problem. We expect them to be ironed out soon. In the meantime, if you have post where the image isn’t being displayed, heres’ how you can fix it.
- Copy the full URL for the post in question.
- Paste the link in the debug box here.
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object - Click “fetch new scrape info” until an image shows in the preview.
Once the preview on that page shows the image, future shares will work as expected.
Let me know if you have any questions about that!

Hi lizthefair! Thanks for your reply. The Facebook debug tool always works but today it didn’t. Facebook actually addressed this issue a few hours ago with a “fix” coming up.
-
thanks for that info westlifebunny! So all we can do is wait?
I’m having the same issue with my wordpress.org blog as well
(also since yesterday) :-/ -

@brugesvegan: It’s actually working now. I managed to get our articles back up on Facebook and it generated previews. Maybe try again by using the debug tool first, and then adding it to FB. Sometimes the old info will get stuck in cache, but keep fetching “new scrape information.” Eventually it will work. On one of our articles today, it didn’t show the image in the debug but it did generate a preview on our FB page.
@lizthefair: You’re welcome! :)
