    How do I get the link on Facebook to a post on my site to show the ‘featured image’ assigned to the post rather than the logo of my site???

    When I send a link, or copy paste the URL to Facebook etc the link is there BUT the picture is of my logo NOT the featured picture I used on the article.

    HELP.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    You’ll need to specifically “tell” Facebook (and all other social media sites) which image it should use, else you’re leaving Facebook’s bots to “guess”, and their best guess may not necessarily be your desired one.

    The easiest way to “tell” Facebook to use your featured image is to use a plugin like the Yoast SEO plugin, which you can find in your WordPress dashboard. This plugin will automatically add the necessary open graph code to every page on your site, instructing the social media sites what to display.
