I'm having some trouble with my Facebook sharing on my site www.letitgo.ca . I'm finding that when the site is shared, I get a blank thumbnail where an image should be in my facebook feed. From googling around it looks like others have had similar problems as well, I've looked at some solutions others have used but they either haven't worked for me or I haven't been technically savvy enough to implement them properly.
I'm using wordpress + sumome app for sharing, however I've experienced the same behavior with different sharing apps. I've noticed something funky in the code:
<meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-letitgo.ca/images/passage.jpg"/>
<title>letitgo.ca - releasing into clarity and possibility</title>
<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast WordPress SEO plugin v2.1.1 - https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/ -->
<meta name="description" content="releasing into clarity and possibility"/>
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.letitgo.ca" />
<meta property="og:locale" content="en_US" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:title" content="letitgo" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Let go and release into clarity and possibility" />
<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.letitgo.ca" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="letitgo.ca" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://www.letitgo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/passage.jpg" />
The first og:image tag links to an image that doesn't seem to render. I think the first tag might be overwriting the second (which works), but I can't for the life of me find out how that tag is being inserted, I've scoured WPs options but cannot figure out what's responsible. Also of note, when I run the site through facebooks graph API I get this:
{
"error": {
"message": "An access token is required to request this resource.",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 104,
"fbtrace_id": "AoZ4gOp/amf"
}
}
Which I'm not sure what to make of. If anyone has any ideas please let me know!
