It doesn't matter if I use the autoposter or if I do it manually - it just shows my logo and not the desired video thumbnail..</p> <p>If I do it whithout using the featured media widget and just paste the code from youttube, then it works like a charm - but then the responsiveness of the video disappears.</p> <p>I've made two test post:<br /> WITH media Widget:<br /> <a href="http://www.christianrahn.com/advertising/zederkof-the-fight" rel="nofollow">http://www.christianrahn.com/advertising/zederkof-the-fight</a></p> <p>debugging it on facebook gives me this<br /> <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.christianrahn.com%2Fadvertising%2Fzederkof-the-fight" rel="nofollow">https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.christianrahn.com%2Fadvertising%2Fzederkof-the-fight</a></p> <p>WITHOUT Media Widget:<br /> <a href="http://www.christianrahn.com/advertising/testing" rel="nofollow">http://www.christianrahn.com/advertising/testing</a></p> <p>debugging it on facebook gives me this<br /> <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.christianrahn.com%2Fadvertising%2Ftesting" rel="nofollow">https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.christianrahn.com%2Fadvertising%2Ftesting</a></p> <p>---<br /> The debug report shows that there is a Open Graph problem.<br /> &gt;&gt;Inferred Property: The 'og:image' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.&lt;&lt;</p> <p>I really don't know what this means.</p> <p>I've searched and read the other post in the forum and a solution to this is nowhere to be found. I hope you fix this soon. I think this is a theme problem and not a WP or FB problem.</p> <p>best regards<br /> Christian </p>
