    After removing Yoast and installing the All in One SEO pack when I share a post to facebook using the share buttons on my blog or by directly typing the URL into a facebook post it is using the default image. I have specified in the settings to use the featured image and these posts do have a featured image. My blog is queenofreviews.com . TIA

    Hi queenofsavings,

    Are you aware that Facebook may choose to cache an image from the post first that is different than the one you set in the All in One SEO Social Meta panel. You must use the Facebook Debug button to be taken to Facebook to clear Facebook’s cached image.

    First, when you set a share image in the social meta panel, you must save the post.

    Second, click on the Facebook Debug button, go to Facebook, and fetch new scrape information.

    You should see the image change from the current image to the new image, and then you can test your link again in Facebook and it should pull the new image.

    You can find this in the Social Settings tab of the All in One SEO Pack section of your Edit Post screen – http://semperplugins.com/documentation/social-meta-settings-individual-pagepost-settings/
