Sharing wrong image to Facebook

    I’m using this with the All in One Event Calendar, which they suggested. Sometimes it will share the featured image in the correct format, above the post title. Sometimes it will show a small box to the left of the page title, where an image should be, but no image is visible. Sometimes, it will show the wrong image above the post title, and I have no idea where that image is coming from, other than I had it set as the fallback image. I’ve removed that now, and I thought the fallback image was only supposed to be used if there wasn’t a featured image.
    Right now I’m trying to share this post:
    http://www.myjobdependsonag.com/event/rudnick-dispersal-sale/
    and it’s sharing the incorrect image.
    When I do a debug it’s telling me that the OG image could not be defined, which I don’t get why that is, because further down the page it’s showing me the OG image and it’s the correct one. When I scroll down further on the debugger page, it’s showing me how it will share, and it’s the WRONG image.
    I have no idea how to use this plugin or what to do next…very frustrating.

    I expect you’re talking about sharing on Facebook, and the image Facebook ultimately chooses? Have you read the Setup Guide? Any error from the Facebook debugger means that Facebook will NOT read your webpage content correctly.

    This is the image NGFB is providing to Facebook:

    <!-- og:image:1 --><meta property="og:image" content="http://www.myjobdependsonag.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/1453757948_overland_socialmedia-550x380.jpg"/>
<!-- og:image:1 --><meta property="og:image:width" content="550"/>
<!-- og:image:1 --><meta property="og:image:height" content="380"/>

    Is this the correct image?

    Have you shared this URL before enabling NGFB? Aside from reading the Setup Guide, you should also have a look at this FAQ: http://surniaulula.com/codex/plugins/nextgen-facebook/
