# OG:image is wrong

 * [2 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ogimage-is-wrong/)
 * When I post [https://solowebsolutions.com](https://solowebsolutions.com) into
   Facebook, it pulls the wrong image. I have come across instructions to go to 
   Yoast > Social but that doesn’t exist. It doesn’t make a difference if I enter
   the proper image in Yoast > Settings >Homepage > Social media appearance. And
   yes, I cleared the cache for the browser and my site. On top of that, if I delete
   the image, save, and refresh, the image is still there.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fogimage-is-wrong%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@cheryls](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cheryls/),
 * Thanks for reaching out about your social sharing image. I tested the URL in 
   the [Facebook sharing debugger](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fsolowebsolutions.com%2F)
   and got the error below:
 * _Image Too Small: Provided og:image URL, [https://solowebsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/logo-color-resp-sm.jpg](https://solowebsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/logo-color-resp-sm.jpg)
   was not valid because it did not meet the minimum size constraint of 200px by
   200px._
 * It means the image you have uploaded is small

 * Please share a screenshot of what you have in _WordPress > Yoast SEO > Settings
   > Content Types > Homepage_. You can use any image-sharing service like [https://pasteboard.co/](https://pasteboard.co/),
   [https://snag.gy/](https://snag.gy/), [https://imgur.com/](https://imgur.com/),
   [https://snipboard.io/](https://snipboard.io/), or even upload the screenshot
   to your own website. Once you upload it to an image-sharing service, please share
   the link to the image here.

 * My theme resized the image to 300×140.
 * I uploaded a different logo to my website, but the sharing debugger doesn’t show
   it.
 * Here is the link to what I see when I try to add the logo in Yoast > Settings

   Is that the new image you uploaded?

 * No, that’s the old image, and never the correct image I might add.
 * The correct image is /solo-web-solutions-logo2.png, which is cropped to 600×140
   per the theme’s request.
 * I’m not sure where it pulls from, plus I was told that this is now a premium 
   feature. Is that correct?

 * I understand you’ve uploaded your preferred image for Homepage from the Yoast
   > Settings > Content types > Homepage. You mentioned the correct image [solo-web-solutions-logo2.png](https://solowebsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/solo-web-solutions-logo2.png),
   which is cropped to 600×140.
 * Please note, as mentioned previously this size is smaller and doesn’t meet the
   Facebook image size recommendation. Please try a bigger size as it should work.
   Yoast SEO settings doesn’t itself crop the image.

 * I try not to crush the thread and open my own when I am ready, just saying my
   og:image is also messed up and it goes back to Yoast. I don’t know more yet, 
   just wanted to add that there is another same/similar case

 * I feel a bit silly. I assumed I needed to use the image I was using for my header.
   In reality, I was able to enter a different image in Yoast. I used an image that
   is 600×600, larger than the required 200×200. It works beautifully now.

 * Then maybe my case is not similar and I’ll need to open my own thread. In my 
   case the wrong og:image is suddenly shown. It shows an image on the homepage 
   that is not defined anywhere as og:image or featured image. It’s not even on 
   the same page, not in the source code, nowhere. It’s just taking that image from
   a completely different post as the og:image on the homepage. Completely out of
   the blue, the only workaround to manually define a featured image on that particular
   page.
 * Troubleshooting takes way more time than just setting it manually per page unfortunately.

 * It sounds very similar to mine, actually. It was grabbing an image in the body
   of my home page. It started fairly recently. Go to Yoast > Settings > Content
   Types > Homepage and under Social Media Appearance, enter an image that is a 
   minimum of 200×200 > Save. Then go to [https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/)
   and ask it to debug (or rescrape if you’ve already been there). See if that makes
   a difference.
 * I hear you re: troubleshooting; seems like I spend most of my time there.

 * I have seen that from your previous post, but I have only “You can determine 
   the title and description for the homepage by editing the homepage itself.” at
   Yoast > Settings > Content Types > Homepage
 * Perhaps you have Yoast Premium?
 * Yes, I would say, one full-time job is troubleshooting plugins & compatibility.
   To some extent I like it to be part of it to improve the entire eco system. But
   the other side is – you need a second full time job to make a living

 * No, I have the free version.
 * Under Yoast > Settings > Site features is Open Graph data (under sharing) enabled?

 * I checked your screenshot: [https://pasteboard.co/Zomzr0aZ9FXK.png](https://pasteboard.co/Zomzr0aZ9FXK.png)
   
   and compared it with mine [https://pasteboard.co/BtdfFZ3i2VJA.jpg](https://pasteboard.co/BtdfFZ3i2VJA.jpg)
 * I also checked the same for other post types I have. Here I can see the settings
   but greyed out as it’s only for Premium users: [https://pasteboard.co/IfbR6FlgB2OQ.jpg](https://pasteboard.co/IfbR6FlgB2OQ.jpg)
 * Somehow it looks like you are on the premium version.
 * Now I am really getting curious about this
