Featured Images Do Not Work?

Hi, joyryde, I’m another Neve user.

I did a quick search for the meta tags and just realized that you were right. The theme doesn’t generate open graph meta tags.

No open graph meta tags are generated using the content from the page with the theme.

You could try something along the lines of this code that I wrote, although it doesn’t account for the existing meta graph tags you have on your site:

define('current_theme_name', 'Neve');
$theme = wp_get_theme(); // gets the current theme
if ( current_theme_name == $theme->name || current_theme_name == $theme->parent_theme ) {
   add_action( 'wp_head', 'add_meta_tags_hestia' , 10 );
}

function add_meta_tags_hestia()
{
	if (is_page()):
		global $post;
	?>
		<meta property="og:title" content="<?php echo get_the_title($post);?>"/>
		<meta property="og:image" content="<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail_url($post)?>" />
		<meta property="og:description" content="<?php echo get_the_excerpt($post)?>"/>
		
		<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
		<meta name="twitter:title" content="<?php echo get_the_title($post);?>"/>
		<meta name="twitter:description" content="<?php echo get_the_excerpt($post)?>"/>
		<meta name="twitter:image" content="<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail_url($post)?>" />
	<?php
	endif;
}

Note it only applies to pages.

Where are those existing metagraph tags coming from on your site?`

Hi @joyryde!

Please make sure you added the featured image to Rank Math -> Titles & Meta -> OpenGraph Thumbnail and saved the changes, as you can see here. Then, when you go to Facebook sharing debugger and scrape again the URL, the featured image should be displayed in the preview. I tested this and it worked as expected for me, as you can see here.

Have a nice day!

Hi @joyryde!

I checked your site and it seems that the featured image currently set for the site is the one from this link, which is the logo. Please make sure you properly set the desired image as featured image. I tested this and for my test instance the correct image is displayed, as you can see in the screenshots provided in my previous answer, so the issue doesn’t seem to be theme related. I also tested a product page from your site, and that works as expected too – screenshot.

Have a nice day!
