  When I try posting the link to my blog on Facebook, two things don’t happen that should: 1. the thumbnail of my picture (avatar?) doesn’t show up and 2. it always displays a post that I made about a week ago, for some reason it always defaults to showing this old post.
  Any insight? Help!

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

  Hi there. It might help to flush your Facebook cache by inserting your blog’s URL here: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
  More in formation in this support doc: http://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-image-thumbnail/#image-thumbnail-problems-faq

  Before flushing the cache, it might also help to completely disconnect Facebook from your blog. Go to Sharing ->Settings and remove Facebook under Publicize. Then go to your Facebook settings and remove WordPress from the Apps menu. Then flush the cache and reconnect Publicize.
