  Hi there,
  I am a novice at blogging but have set up the bare bones of a blog, but seem unable to view the link I thought I had added, for Scrivener. I also cannot see the photo when it is posted on FB.
  Can someone help me and be patient – thanks in anticipation,
  S

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

  Hi there. How and where exactly did you try to add the link for Scrivener?

  WordPress.com has no control over what Facebook displays. If your post has a featured image, WordPress.com will “suggest” Facebook display that, or otherwise your blog’s custom header or blavatar, but in the end Facebook determines this. See here for more information: https://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-image-thumbnail/

  The only way to really control what appears on Facebook is to post your link and image to Facebook manually. That’s actually better, as Facebook doesn’t show auto-posted content to as many people as it does manual posts.
