  how can I share a post on facebook with its picture, and not the gravatar one?

  When sharing a post on facebook, I always get an old, old gravatar picture and not the picture attached to the new post I am actually tring to post.
  I couldn’t find that old picture to have it deleted, it seems it’s stuck somewhere. It keeps coming up with every sharing attempt …
  What can I do?

  Hi there. Please try clearing your Facebook cache: https://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-image-thumbnail/#image-thumbnail-problems-faq

  Otherwise there’s not much we can do. Facebook determines which image is used and WordPress merely “suggests” which image it should use. The support doc I linked above has more information on this.
