Image Problem with WPBook

    I upgraded to WPbook 2.2.3 a few days ago and all seemed fine for 1 post. (I.e. the post went to FB and looked the same as it had w/ previous version – including image from post).
    Second post I made also worked ok — but this time instead of taking an image from the post, it took an image from my site (randomly the rss feed badge).

    third and fourth post — no picture posts to facebook (even though there are plenty of images in each post to choose from) only the title and text link and small excerpt is posting.

    I haven’t changed anything in the interim on FB or WP. any ideas on how I can get images to post with my fb links back?

    thx
    Rochelle

    an update — seems the image problem is still happening — not ever getting images from post — but rather other images from wider website or none instead (it’s one or the other). Would love for it to work as consistently with images as previous version. Any one having same problem?

    Are you using image thumbnails, or what WordPress now calls “featured images”?

    That’s the only way you will get images in WPBook – if you set the “featured image” for the post in the post-edit screen before you publish.

    If you don’t have a “featured image” box in the post-edit screen, it’s because your theme doesn’t support post thumbnails, and you’ll need to edit your theme to enable post thumbnails, as described here:

    The “random” image is actually pulled by Facebook whenever you make a post that doesn’t include an image
