  I changed the header title of my blog. It was “the invitation of a lifetime” and now it’s “an incredible invitation.” Unfortunately, when I try to post a link to my blog on Facebook (just copying and pasting the URL loryntoturkey.com), it reads “the invitation of a lifetime,” which it *should not* since I changed the title and cleared all my cookies, etc… PLEASE HELP! I’m so frustrated!!!!

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

  HI there,

  I have fetched the new scrape information for Facebook here:

  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

  You should now see the correct title when you share from here on out It will not make changes retroactively.

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  Hi there,

  I’m not seeing an image on your site. Can you show me which one you are referring to?

  Before, when I posted the link to my blog on my facebook page (when it was showing the old title), the link included the green-and-white image at the top/center of my blog… Now when I copy and paste my URL on facebook, the link shows a big blank square where I think that image should be, next to the text box with the now-correct title… Not sure why the image part changed in addition to the updated text??

  Hi there,

  So it looks like Facebook is not pulling the image. Normally they prefer the images to be at least 200 px wide and the image is 120 px wide as seen here:

  I tried changing the image to a larger one (200+px), and it still isn’t working. It just shows a blank square next to the text where the image should go when I try to post the link on facebook…. Help?

  Hm, can you try adding a Blavatar image? You can do this by going to Settings > General in your Dashboard.

  Tried the blavatar option– didn’t change the facebook link problem: still getting a blank square rather than any image :(
