Description
Users publishing to Facebook might face following issues: - Incorrect images show on Facebook Posts
- Images dont show up on Facebook Posts
Solution - Incorrect images show on Facebook Posts
This issue happens when posts from the source website either dont contain an image or the image size is less then 100px in height or width. In such cases, Facebook automatically tries to add images to the Posts. LinksAlpha has no control over which image Facebook uses. LinksAlpha has contacted Facebook to prevent this issue from happening. There is no ETA on resolution
- Images dont show up on Facebook Posts
- Direct Publishing: If your Publish Method is "Direct" -
All you need to do is set the Featured Image in your blog post. In case you cannot set this image, LinksAlpha.com will try to detect the image from your content, which should mostly work unless HTML of your blog post is not valid.
- RSS Feed Publishing: If your Publish Method is "RSS Feed" -
This issue might due to the fact that you are not publishing full RSS feed. Instead you have changed the feed to publish only Summary of posts. Wordpress does not support showing images in Summary RSS Feed by default. As a result, there are no images available to post to Facebook.
To get around this issue and automatically show images in your RSS feed without enabling full feed - please install the following plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-rss-images/. Once you do this, LinksAlpha plugin will automatically pick up the images and post to Facebook Page/Profile.
