How to fix Facebook incorrect thumbnail issue in WordPress?

It is frequently observed that when users try to post their article on Facebook, Facebook is addressing an improper thumbnail. This problem is really annoying when you are sharing things for a business purpose. Here in this blog, we will discuss this problem in detail and its resolution. This blog is brought to you by WordPress Support Australia.

According to WordPress Support Chat, the prime reason behind this error is when multiple images are there under Open graph (on): image tag and your one is smaller in size of them all. WordPress uses a plugin like WordPress SEO by Yoast to add open graph tags (or) to your site to put an end to missing thumbnail issue.

There is another way suggested by WordPress Help Australia Let us discuss it. When a user shares an article to Facebook it never selects the correct image. To correct it click on the upload link first to upload the image. In Facebook, the uploaded image always gets stored in the photo section. Go and delete the uploaded photo from Facebook photo section. Facebook will then show a thumbnail of your uploaded image in the article. But the limitation of this method is it is only applicable for one user. For another user, it will again show the wrong thumbnail.

Then go for the next method described by WordPress Tech Support. Use WordPress SEO by Yost plugin and you will easily be able to set a thumbnail image for your Facebook.

Wherever you will write a post go to Yost SEO box and then click on the social tab. There you will find a button, use that button to upload a Thumbnail image for Facebook. Attach your Facebook thumbnail image with that. The last option is trying to resolve it using the Facebook debug tool. First, copy the URL of WordPress post and paste it in the debugger. You will face a common error stating that ‘image is not big enough’. In this method, Facebook will automatically judge a picture’s size and if the picture is not large enough then it will pop up the error. However, press the debug button again and again and this error will disappear.
