p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · OT - profoto links


I know this isn't specifically related to wedding photography, but I know a lot of us up here use profoto4 so I thought I'd post the question here. In the last couple of days when I try to link to my blog posts facebook isn't picking up on the thumbnail images and simply shows text from the post. Anyone else run into this. Any help would be appreciated as I am stumped and haven't been able to resolve this issue.

I'm guessing that you mean ProPhoto the blogging service. You should just email them. They've always has great and fast customer service.

Tested mine... working fine. I tried several different types of links as well. (static, slides, etc.) All work. May just be a FB server thing in your location.

Its probably just facebook. Mine do that sometimes. I use a private hosted WordPress though. When it does that I post single photo with the post link.

That happens to me every once in awhile. It appears to be on FB's end, as I can keep pasting the link to my blog post in FB, without changing anything on the ProPhoto side, and eventually it will work. One thing I did notice is that it seems to help if I have selected a 'Featured Image' on the Wordpress side in the post.

Profoto is a lighting company

So looks like a facebook thing. However I managed to get it going by installing the "Easy Facebook Share Thumbnail" plugin and in addition setting the feature image as suggested above. Thanks for the input guys. Much appreciated.
