  The thumbnails that appear when I share my posts on Facebook are the wrong ones. The thumbnail that WordPress offers is my ‘about me’ picture or my Instagram pictures from the Instagram widget.
  I always upload a feature image and Its not the photo dimensions.
  Please help

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

  I’m sorry but we cannot help with this. We have no control over the images that Facebook chooses to display or when they choose to flush their image caches. We really only send them the URL of the post, and they hunt through that for the excerpt and images to include.
