 * Hello, I’m having problem setting featured image as og:image for CPT posts. It
   seems like Yoast doesn’t set featured image og:image when post is released but
   with some delay (15-60 minutes maybe). Facebook Debugger first tells that og:
   image is not set but after some time the image is set correctly. I also inspected
   page code and noticed that og:image is clearly missing. Image size should not
   be a problem in this case (1606×1071 px and 293 kt).
 * Is this kind of delay normal?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-ogimage-set-with-delay%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I keep having the same problem. I find the [transformation](https://synapsenstau.de/)
   from preview image is not working properly.

 * Hi [@alluxus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alluxus/),
 * The Open Graph meta tags get added to your page as soon as you publish or update
   your page, so we’re not sure why you’re seeing a delay. The example page you 
   shared has the og:image tag that we expect to see.
 * Can you let us know if you have any caching enabled on your site using a plugin
   or on your server? If so, does making sure that you purge the page cache after
   updating your page or before sharing the page to Facebook solve the problem?
 * We have other steps to troubleshooting a missing facebook image in this guide:

 * [@yogaetage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yogaetage/) If you’re seeing
   a similar issue and you’d like us to troubleshoot this issue for your specific
   site, we’d like you to [create a new forum topic](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-seo/?view=all#new-topic-0).
