I finally got a default thumbnail to show for each post, but I’m still not seeing the thumbnail that is meant to go with my post.
Please help!!
I’m still having problems with this and it’s driving me crazy!
Will anyone help me? Or is this one of those things I need a professional to help me with?
If I could get some advice on what to do or if I need to hire someone, that would be great!
Thanks!
Annie
Are you using a plugin for this? From what I know (not a lot) if your site has multiple OpenGraph tags generated, FB gets messed up. I’d suggest using a plugin and then asking on the plugins own forum for help with getting it configured correctly – i.e. here:

There’s also quite a bit of good info on the plugins FAQ’ and support forum.
Hi WPyogi,
Thanks for helping! I’m currently using Wonderm00n’s open graph and it’s doing half the job (i.e. getting text but no image).
Yes, I tried the Facebook plugin but I didn’t get anywhere with it. When I couldn’t connect to it, the plugin moderator told me that because my fan page is a “company page” there is no way to get my FB app ID. See the exchange here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-find-fb-app-id-for-fan-page?replies=6
All I’m trying to do is get my green “Share” button (at the bottom of each post) to show a picture when viewers click on it.
Do I really need a FB plugin to do this? Can’t I just put in metatag code that links to my images? Like this: meta property='og:image' content='LINK'/
If it IS that simple, what URL do I link the image to?
Thanks so much for your help!
