Why won't our social media show the right images?

  Hi,
  We are having trouble posting on social media. We think a plugin is selecting three generic images which are not relevant to the posts, rather than the images in the posts when we copy the link onto facebook?
  Thanks

  Hi there. This is not a plugin, it is Facebook. WordPress.com “suggests” to Facebook which image to use when you post a link, but Facebook’s software makes the final choice. The only way to completely control this is to post the image you want to Facebook manually. See here for more information: https://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-image-thumbnail/
