• Hello,
    When I share some of my posts on Facebook, they either don’t show a thumbnail or show 403 Forbidden Error thumbnail.

    This happens to some of my posts. I either copy and paste the link on my FB wall or share the post by clicking on the “share” button from an installed plugin. In the first case I get no thumbnail. In the second case, I get a 403 Forbidden thumbnail.

    I’ve used a variety of plugins and have the same 403 Forbidden error with all of them. So, I am assuming that this is not a plugin problem.

    This is one of the posts that presents this problem.

    I’ve updated WP yesterday and also updated all the plugins.

    I thank you in advance for any help with this!

    A 403 forbidden means that your browser isn’t able to load the scripts up because your server isn’t allowing it. This is a hard one to solve. Because anything could be blocking the server.
    – Most likely this is a server permissions/ownership issue, so ask your host what’s going on
    – Also, check your .htaccess files for anything strange.
    – Also try a full Manual Upgrade, to make sure all the WordPress files are there and correct.
    – Make sure to backup everything (including database) before doing any action, in case.
