Você já compartilhou um de seus artigos do WordPress no Facebook e viu a imagem errada aparecer? Isso pode ser frustrante, especialmente quando você escolheu uma ótima imagem para sua publicação. Muitos proprietários de sites enfrentam esse problema, e nem sempre fica claro como corrigi-lo.
Quando o Facebook mostra a miniatura errada, isso pode tornar sua publicação menos atraente para os possíveis leitores. Isso pode significar que menos pessoas clicarão no seu link ou compartilharão seu conteúdo. Por isso, é importante garantir que o Facebook exiba a imagem correta para suas publicações.
Nossa equipe na WPBeginner publica regularmente no Facebook e já ajudou milhões de usuários do WordPress a resolver problemas como esse. Entendemos como é importante que seus compartilhamentos de mídia social tenham boa aparência e representem seu conteúdo com precisão.
Neste guia, mostraremos como garantir que o Facebook sempre mostre a miniatura correta das suas publicações no WordPress, tornando o compartilhamento na mídia social mais eficaz.
Por que o Facebook não está capturando a imagem em miniatura?
Há muitos motivos pelos quais uma publicação do Facebook pode mostrar a miniatura errada ou exibir incorretamente a miniatura correta. Um dos motivos mais comuns é ter várias imagens definidas na tag og:Image em que sua imagem em destaque é menor do que as outras imagens.
O Facebook usa as tags Open Graph og e muitos plug-ins do WordPress, como o All in One SEO (AIOSEO) e o Yoast SEO, as adicionam automaticamente ao seu site WordPress para evitar a falta de miniaturas.
Algumas outras causas são plug-ins de cache, conflitos de CDN ou uma meta tag de gráfico aberto ausente para a imagem em miniatura.
É realmente difícil adivinhar o que está causando o problema porque não há mensagens de erro específicas exibidas ao usar a ferramenta de depuração.
Dito isso, vamos dar uma olhada em algumas maneiras de corrigir o problema da miniatura incorreta do Facebook:

Escolhendo sua miniatura do Facebook com o AIOSEO
Uma maneira de mostrar a miniatura que você deseja é com o plug-in gratuito AIOSEO. Ele é o melhor plugin de SEO para WordPress do mercado e permite otimizar facilmente seu conteúdo para mecanismos de pesquisa e sites de mídia social.
Mostraremos a você como fazer isso com a versão gratuita do AIOSEO. Se você quiser desbloquear mais recursos de SEO e obter mais tráfego para o seu site WordPress, deve conferir o AIOSEO Pro. Veja nossa análise completa do AIOSEO para obter mais detalhes.
Primeiro, você precisa instalar e ativar o AIOSEO. Aqui está nosso guia completo sobre como instalar um plug-in do WordPress.
Depois de instalar o plug-in, você poderá alterar facilmente a miniatura do Facebook ao escrever uma postagem. Basta rolar para baixo até a meta-caixa Configurações do AIOSEO, abaixo do editor de postagens, e clicar na guia “Social”.
Um pouco mais abaixo na página, você verá um menu suspenso “Image Source” (Fonte da imagem), onde poderá selecionar a imagem em miniatura para o Facebook.
Por exemplo, você pode usar sua imagem em destaque ou carregar uma imagem personalizada.
Depois de adicionar a imagem em miniatura do Facebook, você precisa atualizar a publicação. Isso resolverá o problema na maioria dos casos.
Esta é a aparência da nossa postagem quando compartilhada no Facebook:
Dica profissional: se isso não funcionar, certifique-se de que você limpou o cache do WordPress e atualizou a publicação na ferramenta de depuração do Facebook, conforme mencionado abaixo neste artigo.
Escolhendo sua miniatura do Facebook com o plug-in Yoast SEO
O plugin Yoast SEO também vem com a capacidade de adicionar uma miniatura personalizada do Facebook a cada post ou página.
Basta instalar e ativar o plug-in Yoast SEO. Para obter mais detalhes, consulte nosso guia passo a passo sobre como instalar um plug-in do WordPress.
Após a ativação, é hora de configurar uma miniatura do Facebook em qualquer publicação que você desejar.
Ao escrever uma postagem, role para baixo até a meta-caixa do Yoast SEO abaixo do editor de postagens e clique na guia social. Lá, você verá um botão para carregar uma imagem em miniatura para o Facebook.
Esta é a aparência da miniatura do Facebook para nosso artigo Como iniciar um blog:
Usando a ferramenta de depuração do Facebook para limpar o cache
Se você adicionou a miniatura correta e o Facebook ainda não está mostrando a miniatura correta, o problema está relacionado ao armazenamento em cache.
Primeiro, você precisa se certificar de que limpou o cache da página no WordPress.
Depois disso, você precisa redefinir o cache do Facebook usando a ferramenta de depuração.
A ferramenta de depuração do Facebook é a maneira mais fácil de solucionar problemas de miniaturas do Facebook. Basta copiar o URL de sua publicação do WordPress e colá-lo na ferramenta de depuração do Facebook.
Depois disso, clique no botão “Scrape Again” e o Facebook atualizará a miniatura de sua publicação. Às vezes, pode ser necessário clicar duas vezes no botão “Scrape Again”.

I also encountered a similar problem once and the solution was to remove mixed content where part of the site was http and part was https. Then the previews on Facebook were also displayed incorrectly.

Hello I’m quite confused. I can’t find the Social Meta feature. I go to feature manager, and all it does is tell me I need the Pro version. Did they put all features behind a paywall?
WPBeginner Support
You would want to check in the individual posts at the bottom as that would be where you find this feature.

I did all these things. Still doesn’t work. I can set the preferred image on all pages except my homepage. It always shows up as my site icon. Maybe I should dump AIOSEO and use a different one?
WPBeginner Support
For specifically your homepage you can find where to edit that under All in One SEO > Search Appearance. We would still recommend All in One SEO

Hi, I’m using Yeost SEO. I’ve been doing all the steps from adding the picture specific in the Yeost Facebook setting to Facebook debugging. The thumbnail still shows the logo of my website instead of the image and descriptions.
WPBeginner Support
The most common issue you would want to check would be that your site’s cache has cleared.

My problem is not being able to set it…my problem is that I want it to default to using the feature image in my social media posts. It used to do that but now something has changed and it doesn’t do it anymore.
We’re often posting from sea via email so manually setting the image is not an option.
WPBeginner Support
If it is not using the featured image by default then you would likely want to check with the support for your SEO plugin to see if there is an issue with the plugin itself. You should also have the option to select the featured image as an image already uploaded to your site’s media library without needing to upload it again.

Hi, so I’m having a problem when sharing just my URL on Facebook. I was hoping it would show my header or logo image but it’s sharing my last blog upload image. Is there a way to fix that??
WPBeginner Support
In the general SEO settings for the plugin you are using, you should be able to set the image for your main site.

Thank you so much for the detailed article! I tried the debugger and the All-In-One SEO suggestion but neither works
The weird thing is that when I share my blog post on my personal Facebook profile the thumbnail shows just fine, but when I share on my Facebook page (i.e. my business FB page), I keep getting my site’s logo instead of the post photo… Any ideas? Thank you so much
WPBeginner Support
Sadly, you may need to run the debug tool on the link to force Facebook to clear their cache of that specific post.

Have you used the debug tool? It sounds like Facebook make have cached the wrong image and needs to clear the cache.

Please my link has not been displaying Thumbnail on WhatsApp but working fine on Facebook. I actually changed my theme recently and would like to know if there is anything I can do to ensure the thumbnail starts displaying on WhatsApp.

If you have Yoast’s plugin active then you would want to reach out to the plugin’s support and let them know the image is not displaying.

I bet I have a new one for you. I have a relatively new site (5 posts) and any post I try to share to Facebook brings up a preview for a CNN article. I have no idea why. If you click on it, it does take you to my post but the preview will always show the same CNN post.
I have tried the debugger with no luck. I disabled all my plugins and then tried it again thinking maybe a plugin was making my site wonky but no luck.
Any ideas?
WPBeginner Support
Have you tried manually setting an image using an SEO plugin like Yoast and then running the debugger?
Administrador
Cathy
Yes, but it still redirects to the CNN post.
WPBeginner Support
If it is redirecting to CNN and you didn’t write about it you may want to check with your host that there aren’t any redirects set up in your htaccess and you may want to try the theme checker plugin in step 4 of our article here: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-step-step-guide-fixing-hacked-wordpress-site/

I’m wondering if I should upload the actual size of the Facebook image 1200 x 630 px to my blog or scale it down on my laptop to the right size for my blog content container and then upload it to my blog? What’s best?
Thanks!
WPBeginner Support
We would normally recommend adding the best image for your theme to your site
Administrador
MA
So for Facebook scale the images down to a 1.91 to 1 ratio (to match my blog container width) and when someone shares it on my blog post it should still come out Ok on Facebook even though it’s not 1200 x 628? Facebook should just zoom it up right?
WPBeginner Support
Facebook should try to adjust and if not, most SEO plugins have an option to upload an image specifically for Facebook or other sharing platforms for those to use.

Is there any updated advise on this? I use SEO Yoast Premium and have set the correct photo for the Facebook link preview but Facebook is still choosing the incorrect photo that is completely irrelevant to the post.

So sadly my blog was set up under All in One Seo not Yoast. When I tell All in One which image to display as a thumbnail in the social meta section, Facebook shows the default image instead. Any help with the All In One Seo Plugin is greatly appreciated.

This solved my problem!! I used Fb debugger and copied the URL for the photo it said it could not find. Then went to my dashboard and double clicked the photo and inserted the alternate title copied from the debugger! Et voila! Thanks guys!

There seems to be an incompatibility between WordPress’ Photon image caching engine and Facebook.
If the go:image meta tag points to your server and the images are served through Photo, that’s where Facebook is incapable of retrieving the images.
Google Plus never has that sort of problem.
In my view, the problem comes from Facebook.
Vera Schäfer
Thank you so much! I was having a hard time trying to force Facebook Debugger to show my image, as I always do but today it simply wasn’t happening. I use Yoast for years but never occurred to me to follow setting instructions like you helped me today.

thanks to you people this issues has been giving me a sleepless night after reading this post and i follow the procedure everything was like a dream…. thanks

Is there a way to fix this problem without having to manually use the facebook debugger for every single post? I have hundreds of posts and all are showing the wrong pic. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Tiffany,
The best way to do this is still using the Yoast SEO plugin’s social tab to manually set Facebook thumbnail when you are writing the article.

This worked perfectly for me and I didn’t even know that Yoast, which I have installed on my site could do this. After using the facebook debug tool to ‘force a refresh’ everything is good to go! Thank you very much.

How to solve this incorrect thumbnail issue for WhatsApp sharing
Amit Bajaj
Hi
I have recently started facing a weird problem while posting on my Facebook Page. Earlier, when posting a link from my website, I was able to change the image that Facebook automatically pulled from that respective website link.
The earlier process was like this:
1. Put link on a new facebook post
2. FB automatically pulls the featured image from my wordpress post
3. I uploaded a new image
4. Removed the featured image
5. Published the post with an image of my choice.
Now, everything is going fine except step no.4. I am no longer able to remove the automatically pulled featured image. So instead of a single, large image I am getting stuck with a two image carousel.
I have 2 FB pages and this problem is only happening on one of the pages.
Can anyone guide me as to how this problem can be overcome??
Thank you in advance..
Daniel
I have the same issue! I can neither upload new images nor remove featured images – does anyone have a solution?
Kind regards
Dana
I am having the same problem. There are 2 default pictures, I upload another one which I want to appear, but in a few seconds my uploaded picture disappears. Does anyone have a solution? Facebook debugger did not solve anything.
Khalid
I am facing same problem too since 5 or 6 days on my all pages. Now we can’t change the post title and description too. I search a lot on internet about it, but i can’t find anything about it even it’s not mentioned in facebook help section. I think facebook have applied some changes. If you find any solution please let me know.

I’ve not heard of a ACTUAL fix yet. Just a bunch of crap telling you to fix Facebooks problems. Works for some and doesn’t for the rest. For now, we are in the incompetent hands of Facebook Staff.
