Hi! I recently shared a link to my Everweb website on Facebook, but no Thumbnail photo showed up (like every other website link I've shared). Can anyone help me figure this out? Thanks in advance... Sheri. |

I'm having a similar problem. Sometimes there's no image. Sometimes there is. Sometimes the image the program chooses is a large background shape with an image fill. It's frustrating. Is there a way to assign an image to the Facebook button or share function? Or is there a nice work around? Thanks |

Try going here: developers.facebook.com/tools/lint I did a search and saw this is an old problem with many fixes, that link was given as a first step. It apparently will crawl your site and tell you if there are errors for facebook and cache for facebook as well. I got it from an older post from 2011 here:http://ansonalex.com/troubleshooting/fix-articles-linked-on-facebook-dont-display-thumbnails-images/ |

| It looks like Facebook doesn't use their Lint tool anymore. I got a 404 when I went there. I think they fixed it by allowing the user to choose the image they post. When you share something on Facebook and a thumbnail pops up, many times, there's an arrow in the corner. This lets you scroll through the images and pick the one you want to post. I was hoping something like this would be added to the everweb widget. | |
