What I know about Facebook is that they display shared links differently depending on what page you’re on. When I see my links on my own Timeline, they’re displayed like the one you described: smaller thumbnail on the left. But if you click on the publish link (usually under the title displaying when you shared it, e.g. “an hour ago”), it’ll take you to the “full” view. This view with the large image (taking all the column width and above the description/summary) is also used on the News Feed.
So it’s a small version on our own Timeline, but full version on the News Feed. Let me know if this is not the issue.
That is correct. It appears with small image only on my own timeline(my website facebook page). But it was not the case until yesterday.

If you look at the page, you see that all of the links are with large image. But now when I try to share a link, it appears with small. And I did not change anything in the last 48 hours.
Do you what it could be? Could it be the caching plugin?(but even when I disable it, same thing is happening)
Oh, I see. That’s basically because of the image size. If the width of the image is smaller than 600px it will get the “small” version.
Here’s the reference. Scroll down to point #4.
I know that. So I tried with some of the old links(who show large image usually), but even those links are not showing the big image now, but rather that tiny one. Really strange.
Weird indeed. You can try debugging your links and take a close look on how Facebook sees them. Compare your new links with the ones already shared to Facebook. I can only imagine your links are sending a smaller image rather than the original uploaded one (you know, ‘image-300×300.jpg’, etc.)
That is possible. That is also why I believe the problem could be with the cache plugin. I will try debugging and will update here, later on.
Tnx for the help so far! Appreciate it!
