Thumbnail Image is Not Showing When Sharing Link on Facebook. Please Help!

8 replies
When trying to share one of the newer articles from Epicstream.com on Facebook, no thumbnail images are showing like they used to. I tried to enter the link in https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/ to see if there are any errors, and it says "Attempted Frozen Title Change"-

"IT appears that you are trying to change the property og:title from Stormtrooper Rides Little Imperial Walker in This Star Wars 'Arma 3' Mod to Stormtrooper Rides Little Imperial Walker in This Star Wars 'Arma 3' Mod . If so, you are not allowed to for this object because too many actions have been published against it."

How can I fix this issue so thumbnail images will show up again? Please help

    I have the same problem and it started today!
    I am really worried by this since I have to post new articles from my site asap. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this?

    *edit*
    I have different warning:
    Meta with name instead of property The meta tag on the page was specified with name 'author', which matches a configured property of this object type. It will be ignored unless specified with the meta property attribute instead of the meta name attribute.

    But I always had this warning and ignored it because everything seemed to work fine till today.

    Okay I just checked a new URL from CNN and it's not showing up as well
    Check this one: Nepal earthquake: Teenager saved from rubble on Day 6 - CNN.com

    Or this one from Yahoo: https://www.yahoo.com/politics/democ...719668816.html


    Same problem. Seems like there is an issue that Facebook should resolve and there's nothing we can do about it.

    I found that if you post it anyway although you don't see the thumbnail, the thumbnail will show up later. give it a try. it worked for me

    When you share from the site, it shows up large thumbnail but when you directly post the link on Facebook, it's not showing up right. How can this be solved?

    I did what duzap mentioned above - I posted the link even though the preview didn't show an image. When I refreshed the page the image was there.

    yeah I tried to do that as well but it's not showing the whole large thumbnail image. It just shows the smaller one. Weird.

  • Yes, it's a temporary bug, but Fb is working to resolve it according to its own updates. It looks like it does not show the imge but it still loads it. If you publlish it, image will be shown.
