 * It’s not actually. If you actually read the description on how it works first.
   Also maybe because Facebook now pulls what it wants despite having proper og:
   tags. But thanks for taking your frustrations out on my plugin ratings.

 * Sorry dude, I’ll delete it. But is there anyway to choose the photo that is best?
   This is terrible on listicles and articles with multiple photos in it

 * With my plugin no, with any other OGP plugin I’ve seen? no. Not saying there 
   may be one I’m not aware of but mostly it’s tons of extra code and more time/
   requests for the user to post something. I built mine to just do what it does
   w/o asking or being in your way. I was also the 2nd plugin to do this many years
   ago.
    BUT…. like I said… Facebook recently stopped caring what your og: tags 
   are… it’s not just my plugin they stopped paying attention and pulling whatever
   they want to pull. Facebook changes stuff like that all the time and doesn’t 
   warn developers. You can see in their debugger they scrape the site and pull 
   the correct info but then they display other stuff. *SHRUG* Honestly drives me
   nuts but nothing I can do about it. SO even if you could choose your image they
   may/maynot respect it.
 * Best of luck man. Cheers.
