Title: [Plugin: Facebook] Wrong featured image Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Facebook] Wrong featured image * [Rafael Fischmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rfischmann/) * (@rfischmann) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/) * The OpenGraph metadata for the plugin doesn’t define images inserted inside the post. Because of that, it’s picking up the first image from my featured posts on the top of my site, and not an image related to the post. OpenGraph should list links for images inside each post. * You can check it out at [http://macmagazine.com.br](http://macmagazine.com.br) * Thanks. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/facebook/) Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) * [romaintb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romaintb/) * (@romaintb) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871600) * I am having the same issue. * [http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object](http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object) gives me the expected result, but when sharing a post, it shows the first image from related posts. * Plugin Contributor [Matt Kelly (Facebook)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattwkelly/) * (@mattwkelly) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871601) * Thanks for the feedback, we’ll take a look. * Do you have steps that we can take to reproduce the issue we’re seeing (posting an article, setting images, etc)? * [romaintb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romaintb/) * (@romaintb) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871604) * This error always happen (Raphael, do you concur ?), you can see it here : [http://www.ykone.com/kenzo](http://www.ykone.com/kenzo) * The opengraph tag has the correct image set, but when I click share, I see the first image from related posts, not the one set in the tag. * Thread Starter [Rafael Fischmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rfischmann/) * (@rfischmann) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871605) * Correct, you just need to share any link from a site like ours, that has related/ featured images on the top. Mine is working now because I’m not currently using this plugin. * [Mark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marksda1/) * (@marksda1) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871607) * FWIW, I’ve seen the same behavior with regards to Facebook ignoring og:image with likes/shares using the new plugin. I haven’t done an exhaustive comparison, but sites that it’s working on seem to still be using the (older?) open graph meta tag style in the header such as still [documented here](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/): * `` * where the current plugin is using: * `` * When I run pages through the debugger, it shows that they have the image tag, but when I share them, it’s hardly ever the image chosen. * Thread Starter [Rafael Fischmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rfischmann/) * (@rfischmann) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871608) * I’m currently using this plugin: * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-facebook-open-graph-protocol/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-facebook-open-graph-protocol/) * Here’s an example: * [http://macmagazine.com.br/2012/07/18/%E2%86%AA-apple-libera-update-para-todos-os-seus-macbooks-mais-recentes/](http://macmagazine.com.br/2012/07/18/%E2%86%AA-apple-libera-update-para-todos-os-seus-macbooks-mais-recentes/) * On the source code: * `` * That’s how it should work. * [rorypw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rorypw/) * (@rorypw) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871615) * [@matt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/matt/) Kelly: I am having the same issue… * When I share, like or comment on a post using the Facebook WordPress Plugin, the wrong image is used on my timeline. * If you comment on this page, the wrong image will show up: [http://shopwithmeaning.org/2012/07/better-world-books-changing-their-world-with-one-for-one-books/](http://shopwithmeaning.org/2012/07/better-world-books-changing-their-world-with-one-for-one-books/) * [lorielue](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorielue/) * (@lorielue) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871640) * is there a fix for this?? * [janmalagucute](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janmalagucute/) * (@janmalagucute) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871652) * got the same problem. * Waiting for fix * [pixeline](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixeline/) * (@pixeline) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871653) * Change line 138 of file wp-content/plugins/facebook/fb-open-graph.php from: ` $meta_tags['http://ogp.me/ns#image'] = array( $image );` to: `$meta_tags['og: image'] = array( $image );` * Solves the problem for me… beware of plugin updates, which will remove the fix. * [janmalagucute](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janmalagucute/) * (@janmalagucute) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871655) * Thanks pixeline. * It works for me Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) The topic ‘[Plugin: Facebook] Wrong featured image’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/facebook_526fac.svg) * [Facebook](https://wordpress.org/plugins/facebook/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/facebook/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/facebook/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/facebook/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/facebook/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/facebook/reviews/) ## Tags * [featured](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/featured/) * [images](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/images/) * [thumbnail](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/thumbnail/) * 11 replies * 8 participants * Last reply from: [janmalagucute](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janmalagucute/) * Last activity: [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-facebook-wrong-featured-image/#post-2871655) * Status: not resolved
